makromorphago Wrote:Hey Blu!
When I tried out your pre-Eden HD Audio version and started a BD from my ROM, XBMC told me, that it coud not open it. Is it really true, that it natively plays BD, and I mean Bluray Discs, not Iso or what so ever.
Because I would love that to work. Maybe I did something wrong then, so I could come back to you for help!
Thx

clubwerks Wrote:Hey, bluray, have you run across this problem yet? I have four movies, basically the Jack Ryan series of Tom Clancy movies. All with DTS audio. They all play fine on nightlies, but on this version, the audio has horrible stuttering, choppiness, static. Hard to describe. The video is perfect. Like I said, they play perfectly on nightlies. I went ahead and ripped The Hunt for Red October with TrueHD and that works fine as well on this version. They're the only four movies that I've ever had problems with, I find it odd that they are from the same series. All four are mkvs with DTS, all around 10-12 GB. Good releases.

clubwerks Wrote:But, hey, I'm watching Thor in DTSHDMA right now. Sounds great! I'll just switch back and forth between this version and nightlies because besides the odd movie problem, the hulu plugin does not work on this version and works perfectly in nightlies.

clubwerks Wrote:Of course I did. None of those settings make a single bit of difference. I even tried removing Catalyst 11.9 and reinstalling 11.8.

In reading through some of the audio engine threads, it appears it's not an isolated problem. It only affects certain movies. I think I read something about it affecting 24 fps movies only. I can verify that two of those movies are 24 fps for sure. The other two I didn't check.

bluray Wrote:yes, it'll playback bd movie directly on bd-rom. if your bd is encrypted, you might want to download one of these- dvdfab passkey or anydvd hd. it'll decrypt protection in the background. follow visual instruction as shown below to setup xbmc_hd:




insert bd movie

makromorphago Wrote:So how do I setup AnyDVD (I´ve got Version 6.7.6) to decrypt automatically in the background.
When I put in a BluRay on my new set up HTPC XBMC more or less freezes. Why might that be?
Thanx for your reply, Blu!

I'm still working through the thread (page 15), but I see you are online.

One quick question ...

Does this work on the xbmc Live version, or only the Win ver?

Can't wait to try this tonight !!!

Thanks.

Greg

bluray Wrote:i never use live version. i use this xbmc_hd with nothing other than w7!

greg631 Wrote:OK, thanks for the reply.


Someone else asked about the July ver of pre-Eden.... Any plans to update to a newer version?

Any idea if the following will work (ZOTAC ION-GPU-A-E ION Graphics Processor 512MB DDR3 PCI Express x1)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500164

If not, I can order one of those suggested above, and get a head start on the delivery process, rather than trying it tonight to find I need to order it anyway.

TY!

bluray Wrote:i'm not sure about the spec of the zotac in the link. it might not support dts-hd and truehd. this $25 gt430 gpu from newegg will serve you well- MSI N430GT-MD1GD3-OC/LP GeForce GT 430 , and you might want to grab it before it's gone!

acemt Wrote:Bluray,

Any ideas as to what might be causing the stuttering in 24fps media. Several of us are seeing it. I noticed you haven't addressed this yet

Thanks
