Have you try to playback the MKV movie using MPC-HC by itself "without XBMC"? Just to rule out issue with MPC-HC...

Yep, it runs great by itself.

Try to turn on the log to see what XBMC say during MPC-HC playback...

Maybe one small tip for fisical movie discs (bluray/dvd):

If you have a bluray disc you can add a folder with the movie name and year. in this folder make a file called "Drive.disc".
Now XBMC will add it to the library and when you select the file XBMC shows a popup with an insert disc message.



Now you can add your "offline" library in xbmc

Sorry, my english is bad. I have followed the instructions on the XBMC forum, but did not see auto mount 3d bluray iso file to a virtual drive. This is my code and my error with VirtualCloneDrive. Thanks. (L is a virtual disk drive J is also in DVD drive)

Haychua- is this "C:\Users\TuanViet\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata" where you saved your PlayISO.bat? You can right/click the ISO movie and open with PlayISO.bat to see if it start playback movie by itself...

[User 167525]

i think i found the iso mounting problem. Windows 7 professional.

this version doesn't support NFS shares etc. And you can't switch it on like this: http://www.home.agilent.com/agilent/edit...id=2106090


arggggggggggggggg

Is it possible to skip XBMC's view of a bluray folder and automatically launch the external player? I know there was a change after 12.0 but I was hoping that there was a setting introduced in Gotham Beta 1

Hi, I'm trying to create a playiso.bat file for daemon tools lite with TMT6 but can't seem to get it to mount or unmount. When I click on playiso.bat I get a error message 'unknown switch in command line' then it opens up TMT6.


"C:\Program Files (x86)\DAEMON Tools Lite\DTLite.exe" /d=0 %1
"C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcSoft\TotalMedia Theatre 6\uTotalMediaTheatre6.exe" D:

my virtual drive letter is D.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

[acejh1987]

I don't use Daemon Tools Lite, but you can take a look at the valid command line parameters here

It looks like you would need something like -

"C:\Program Files (x86)\DAEMON Tools Lite\DTLite.exe" -mount dt, 0, %1
"C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcSoft\TotalMedia Theatre 6\uTotalMediaTheatre6.exe" D:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\DAEMON Tools Lite\DTLite.exe -unmount dt, 0

I am completely new to xbmc and this is my first HTPC I built. We just setup our home theater. I am using 100" screen with Epson 2030 projector. For our sound I have a Pioneer SC-1522-K setup in 9.2 surround sound. We love the setup. I have some BD and 3d BD ,iso files on my NAS and would like to be able to play them on this new setup.

I built a new Intel NUC D54250WYK with 8gb ram and 120gb MSATA running Windows 8.1 64bit. I am playing on installing xbmc.

I would like to be able to play these .iso files with external player that I can launch from within xbmc.

Can someone advise me what I need to install etc to get this working?

[lucat]

I'm guys,

Why with

<rule filetype="mkv|avi|m2ts" player="MPC-HC"/> everything perfect

<rule filetype="iso" player="PlayISO"> doesn't work, it doesn't start the file.bat ?

(If I try inside the XBMC right-click lunch with PlayISO it starts perfectly)

[acejh1987]

Depending on what players you are using, the files in the original post should work fine.

I changed with:

<rule filetype="mkv|avi|m2ts" player="MPC-HC"/>
<rule filetype="iso" player="PlayISO"/>

And now avi works but ISO don't, the file.bat doesn't start

Try:
<rule filetypes="mkv|avi|m2ts" player="MPC-HC"/>
<rule filetypes="iso|bdmv|mpls" player="PlayISO"/>

I have already tried even that option!

If I invert the two lines then iso work and avi don't , it's like the first exclude the second

Is there one player that is works/better than another? I am complete open to whatever now. Just looking for best options now.

[acejh1987]

Lucat - Have you tried the exact lines I posted with filetypes instead of filetype?

rmilyard - Not really, it's more a user preference. If you want full Blu-ray menu support, then either Arcsoft Total Media Theatre or PowerDVD are the usual recommended players.

I have both. Just not sure which might be better and easier to setup. I am very new to xbmc and not even sure yet how to do this. I am at work and just installing the OS in the NUC now.
