Think I found it, forgot to edit the Playiso.bat file when I moved config files to my HTPC from my test PC! Wrong drive letter!
Will test this evening

Since PDVD12 don't work very well with BDMV file as I stated several times, you might want to try the playercorefactory rule below instead and make sure that your BD-ROM drive is correct in PlayBisc.bat file. The VCD drive and BD-ROM drive cannot be the same as shown in your PlayDisc and PlayISO files.
<rule protocols="bd|dvd" player="Disc_Player"/>

bluray thanks for the responce. Please bear with me as this coding is really new to me and confusing. In my playercorefactory file I added your rule and deletedthe other BluRay rules. I hope this is what you meant. I also changed the PlayDisc bat file to point to D drive which is the bd-rom drive instead of E which is the VCD drive. I replaced these files in userdata and gave it a try. Same thing, then I selected Play Disc, the movie started up in xbmc not powerDVD12. Do I have anything else wrong with the playercorefactory file. Thanks

So am stuck! Using both HDMI 1.4 cables between HTPC-Receiver-Projector.

rem you can place your PlayISO file in \Roaming\XBMC\userdata\

If it does have the ability, maybe someone can tell me how to get it set up. ThanksHave you select 7.1 in Windows 7 control panel Audio Channels? Have you select HDMI as shown in my screen shot below?

OK, I gave up for now on PDVD12 and am now using TMT5. Got 7.1 HD audio to work. I am using your playercorefactory file from page 1 which I listed below. It works like it is supposed to with BluRays. When I play a DVD, it does not go to TMT5 but plays thru XBMC. Please show me what changes I need to make in the playercorefactory file to make this happen.
Thanks
(2012-10-27, 23:29)Maiisoh Wrote: Thanks bluray, that did the trick. Have one more question. When TMT5 starts up after click Play Disc with the DVD in the drive. a small window pops up with a choise to open with TMT or open with WMC. Any way to keep the window from poping up and just automatically opening in TMT like blu rays do?You can try to setup everything in Autoplay to Take No Action in Windows 7 control panel.....and set TMT5 to start playing in fullscreen...
