argh! Wrote:I used AnyDVD HD to rip MY Dark Knight BR disc to an ISO. XBMC Finds it, and puts it in the movie list. But when i try to play it, nothing happens. At all. I hit Play, and the menu image doesn't budge, as if no button was pressed.
I was hoping that at least THAT movie would play, as evidenced in the first post of this thread. Using MPC-HC externally does nothing, either I guess I'm stuck with ripping my BRs to .mkv, for now.
Win 7 x464, XBMC 10.1.
if you want to playback bd (iso/m2ts/mkv) with hd audio, you can do these:
1. install the latest video card control center-
Ati Graphics Drivers & Software or
NVIDIA Driver Downloads
a. in control center, adjust hdtv resolution to fill in the entire hdtv screen.
b. if there is an option in control center- go to video settings>video playback>set it to enforce smooth video playback.
2. install-
High Definition Audio Codecs
3. follow these steps to setup sound in control panel-
control panel hd passthrough
4. download-
darma 10.1
5. launch xbmc from this folder-
xbmc_hd_audio. it'll playback everything without external player.
6. configure pre-eden hd audio settings using these steps-
pre-eden settings. it'll still playback all standard audio too.
7. do these in xbmc to properly configure video settings:
a. system>settings>video>playback (select allow hardware acceleration (dxva2), adjust display refresh rate to match video and sync playback to display)
b. system>settings>system>video output (select full screen for display model and select same resolution as adjusted in control center).
8. to add bd (iso/m2ts/mkv/avi/etc) files in xbmc, do these:
a. video>files>add videos source> enter the correct video source path (C:\Users\Dell\Desktop\Blu-Ray)
now it is time to enjoy your new htpc in full 1080P with HD audio!
