keith300 Wrote:well i read the guide to get this working and had some issues.
nothing was working inside of xbmc, but all batch files worked outside of xbmc.
If i ran the playdisc.bat file it opened tmt5 and would play the bluray in the drive, but if i went into xbmc and clicked the play disc it would flash to a screen with controls on the right and the bluray title in the bottom left and then would go back to the play disc menu.
all bat files are pointing to the correct locations for the files, and it appears that the playercorefact.xml is setup correctly (although i am no expert on xml code)
I have uninstalled tmt5 and backed up my config files and will try again with powerdvd and see if i have anymore luck with that.
everything was installed in order as set out in the first post.
ps...happy New Year All.....
1. If you haven't download these (AnyDVD HD and VirtualCloneDrive), as your BD may be encrypted.
2. Make sure that this <C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcSoft\TotalMedia Theatre 5\uMCEPlayer5.exe> is in PlayDisc.bat, PlayBDMV.bat and PlayISO.bat files. Make sure that uMCEPlayer5.exe directory is grab from the correct Program Files directory on your HTPC "C" drive.
3. Make sure to change all the directory shown in "RED" to correct directories of PlayDisc, PlayBDMV and PlayISO this (Playercorefactory.xml).
