Playing ripped HD movies ...

[aleicgrant]

ok

so I have ripped my collection with anydvdhd and removed any trailers etc.

used tsmuxer to strip out all extra language soundtrack etc I dont want.

Used imgburn to make them into ISO's

Have virtual clone drive ready to go

I have loaded my entire collection into mymovies and it looks great

Just on last hiccup.......

When I click play from within mymovies and media center, it opens up powerdvd 8 but instead of playing the movie it give me the following screen to which I have to hit play again or resume.

Is there anyway around to just to make it play automatically?

I also notice that my drive has a funky name assignment that perhaps is maybe why???

I think it has to do with the disk ID, there was some discussion on this topic a little while back. I don't remember the particulars as I do not use mymovies so I did not pay much attention. Some searching should find it though.

hmm did a search and didnt find anything relavant. If you find the post please let me know.

No accident about it. You can't NOT install it with PowerDVD8. Go into the settings in PowerDVD8 and try to disable it as much as possible but you cannot remove it.

They also don't allow you the option of setting PowerDVD8 to not prompt you to resume anymore. They did in PowerDVD7 but I cannot find such a setting in PowerDVD8.

what I dont understand is that if the movie is playing for the first time why it doesnt just start playing. If I play it directly via just mounting it with virtual clone and fire up powerdvd it plays and does not show that sceen.

odd to say the least

Try the following registry tweaks, These changes should turn off that movielive stuff people seem to hate and the resume screen so it just plays. Adjust the path to your system if it doesn't match. I didn't invent these changes. Use at your own risk, backup before any changes, not liable, disclaimer, asterisk etc.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cyberlink\PowerDVD8]

"EnableMovieLibrary"=dword:00000000
"EnableMovieRemix"=dword:00000000
"UI_MLiveEnableFeature"=dword:00000000
"UI_BDRE_Resume"=dword:00000000
"UI_BDROM_Resume"=dword:00000000


edit: I think it may be under hkey local machine instead of current user, the entries should already be there so you just change the values from 1 to 0.

Interesting stuff. Thanks. Yeah, it removes the stupid tab associated with Remix and whatnot in the settings, as well. :)

UI_BDRE_Resume"=dword:00000000
"UI_BDROM_Resume"=dword:00000000

I didn't mess with resume. I didn't add the UI_BD* ones but the others seemed to work in getting rid of the extra MoovieLive and Remix garbage from annoying me.

[aleicgrant]

man I am so close. I got rid of the movielive and moviemix crap but the play and resume buttons are stilll there

what did I miss.

I double checked the registry edits?????

Check your registry for any other instances of "resume", there may be others. Did you edit the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Cyberlink\PowerDVD8] entries?
