Yes, that should do the trick also.
Shorter line and doesn't introduce a new command in the script that might confuse users that isn't used to scripts.

I don't have any Blu-ray files on my computer, I just explained what that part of the script does and did a theoretical solution to the problem as I understood it.

Hi to all,
I have Done other test.
After removing XBMC eden 11 that work with my script i have tried to install XBMC 12 Frodo but i get now that it passes to my script the wrong bdmv file.
Using XBMC Eden it passes to my script the index.bdmv inside BDMV folder that i know to be the correct file to start the BD with PDVD12.
I have seen that XBMC 12 frodo opens a menù to select 3 options:
1) Play main title. With this option it passes me the mpls file that does not work with powerdvd12
2) Select from all title. As above.
3 Play Blu ray menù. Selecting this option it passes to my script the file movieobject.bdmv but in my case i need to pass to powervd12 the index.bdmv.
why XBMC 12 Frodo passes to my script the movieobject.bdmv?
Is it a Frodo bug? Another question is : Do you use this strings below as workaround to get only the correct path in frodo?
set pth=%1
set pth=%pth:BDMV\MovieObject.bdmv=%
set pth=%pth:BDMV\index.bdmv=%
is it possible to write to xbmv team to ask if they could help us?

Yes, this is how Frodo works, the batch file however will remove everything in the path after the movie folder.
So
1) Play main title - For example XBMC will send -
"C:\Movies\Avatar\BDMV\PLAYLIST\00001.mpls"
The Batch file will then send the following to PowerDVD 12
"C:\Movies\Avatar\"
2) Select from all title (Same as Above)
3) Play Blu ray menu - For example XBMC will send -
"C:\Movies\Avatar\BDMV\MovieObject.bdmv"
The Batch file will then send the following to PowerDVD 12
"C:\Movies\Avatar\"
PowerDVD 12 should be able to play this path correctly (TMT5/6 does)
Edit - What Batch file are you using?

hello there, I configured xbmc to use mpc as the default player but I want to exclude streaming from that (YouTube videos). How can I edit the XML rule in userdata to exclude http streaming from mpc to play from the default. Thank you...

Frodo only sends what it uses for its internal player (It must use MovieObject.bdmv when trying to play the BD menus)
External player is basically a hack allowed by the developers so I wouldn't expect any changes, everything works fine when using a batch file (Or similar), so I don't see any issues.

Frodo has added support for some Blu-ray menus and title selection, so it has changed the way it handles Blu-ray files, so the external player files would have to be changed to match.
Frodo works fine for me with an external player, ISO/BDMV/MPLS/MKV all work fine, its just requires a slightly different playercorefactory.xml and batch file to Eden.
When setup correctly you shouldn't notice any difference between Eden and Frodo, the external player should just launch and play the file.
