If the file format support by TMT5, I can help you add rule in "Playercorefactory.xml".

Don't know how to I find the Live TV file format .
Maybe is the mpeg2 format because this format driver needed in MediaPortal TV Server Configuration to work with my TV card.
Can you help me what rule must add in "Playercorefactory.xml" for mpeg2 to i try it?

The file format have to be precise for it to recognize by the rule. Have you try to playback the Live TV file using standalone TMT5? Can TMT5 playback the Live TV file?

Now i checked it, the file is mpeg2 and the TMT can played it

Thank you for your time

Thank you for your time

You can add this rule {<rule filename=".*mpeg2.*" player="Universal_Player"/>} before this rule {<rule protocols="bd|dvd" player="Disc_Player"/>}.

I hope that you can find solution for your non-MCE remote!

Yes but what if I want to control the bd movie(tmt5) with arrows for the menu, otherwise it's kinda pointless having an external solution if I can't control it might as well use XBMC... Someone here must have done that already with eventghost?

Please don't misinterpret my tone as angry or ungrateful, i know it might sound like that but that's just the way words are coming out right now... Tongue

Yes, with MCE remote I can use it to control TMT5 up/down/left/right arrows for menu, stop/pause/ff/rw buttons and everything else on the remote. Stop/back buttons to get back to XBMC and so on!

Hi, sorry couldn't check yet, but i can tell you what i use

mobo asus p5qd turbo
cpu core 2 quad q8400
6gb ddr2 ram
ati 6850

as soon as i can i check the settings you showed
thanks

edit: i did have a little time after all (wife and daughters left a little while)
i don't seem to have that stuttering problem any more, so now what i would like is that in XBMC only Blu-ray dics uses TMT 5,
the rest is good in XBMC. i just don't know how to change and where to put and or install those xml files, i don't know those stuff thanks

and yes Bluray you seem to be the specialist on the matter , tahnks in advest

You have a powerful HTPC, and it should be able to handle all BD files. To playback BD with TMT5, you can use the codes below in playercorefactory.xml file:

<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="Blu-ray_Player" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="true" video="false">
<filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcSoft\TotalMedia Theatre 5\uLaunchTMT5.exe</filename>
<args>"{E:}" /fullscreen</args>
<forceontop>false</forceontop>
<hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
<hidecursor>true</hidecursor>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">

<rule protocols="bd" player="Blu-ray_Player"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

Hey Bluray,

Did you give up on DSplayer? I wondered if I could make PowerDVD play ALL my files as it supports pretty much everything with version 12. I tried to modify your playercorefactory.xml to just show the universal player section, but when I try to play something, an .mkv for example, it doesn't do anything.

Would love to use the incredible menu portion of XBMC and the finer video processing of Powerdvd if possible. Still loving DSplayer though too.

Cheers,

Mark

Actually, I never use DSplayer. I still preferred external player to enjoy all the original BD menus, chapters, etc as you can see in the screen shots below.

For what you are trying to achieve, you should be able to use the codes below in playercorefactory.xml. Make sure to save playercorefactory.xml in \AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata folder.

<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="Disc_Player" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD12\PDVDLaunchPolicy.exe</filename>
<args>"{E:}"</args>
<hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>true</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
<player name="Universal_Player" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD12\PDVDLaunchPolicy.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}"</args>
<hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>true</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>

</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule filename=".*mkv.*" player="Universal_Player"/>
<rule filename=".*m2ts.*" player="Universal_Player"/>
<rule filename=".*mts.*" player="Universal_Player"/>
<rule filename=".*ts.*" player="Universal_Player"/>
<rule filename=".*avi.*" player="Universal_Player"/>
<rule filename=".*mp4.*" player="Universal_Player"/>

<rule protocol="bd|dvd" player="Disc_Player"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>
