TMT3 7MC Plugin Unable To Remove Region AnyDVD HD

[el-ricardo]

Hi,

Being so lucky in Australia (hint of sarcasm here ) we have multiple regions for blu-ray discs that are sold in the shops, some are actually region coded for Australia (I think, the Pioneer drive is set to Australia) and some are actually UK Region B discs (gotta love consistency, no idea who's smart idea this was ).

What I have found is that if I mount the ISO and play it in Windows via TMT3 normally the region is removed successfully by AnyDVD HD and the movie plays (in this case Babylon A.D.). But if I launch the movie from MM3 from within 7MC which mount's the ISO and then play's with TMT3 (but the 7MC TMT3 plugin) then I get the screen that the player isn't set in the correct region and I'm unable to view the movie.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Just my opinion, but maybe create unprotected ISOs where you remove the region code when you rip the ISO. Then when playing back, you don't have to worry about it.

Understand where you are coming from but the conscensus is to create ISO's with protection. The reason being if there is any problems with a specific disc that get's addressed with a later version of AnyDVD HD then I don't have to re-rip disc's .

Fixed .

I didn't realise that the region setting would be different in normal TMT3 and the media center plugin, so low and behold, if I go into the plugin it was set to Region A. Maybe this conflicted with the BD-ROM being set to Region B, even though AnyDVD HD removes the region? Not sure but it's solved my problem which is the main thing .

It also means that the discs we get in Oz are UK discs, obviously no specific encoding for Oz (just Region B), I wondered why some of the discs had UK parental guidence logo's on them.

No. BD-Rom drives don't even have a region. Only discs and players have, and AnyDVD must be set to the region of the *disc*.

Ok cool, thanks mate, that makes a little more sense. So when you right click on the BD-ROM and the device properties is set to region B (which you can only changed 4-5 times) this is only related to the disc/software.
