DVD issues

[gbvj]

Hi everyone,

I recently started using GBPVR after installing PVR-150.
System Info :
windows XP SP2
powerdvd
media player 10

Issues :
1) I can't play encrypted DVD's via GBPVR. I can't play them using windows media player either. I can play them fine with powerDVD though. I am using cyberlink for video decoder as well as audio decoder in GBPVR configuration.
Does GBPVR really take video and audio decoder information from the configuration setup or does it just use the windows media player codec information ? If that is the case I should change windows media player's dvd codec and not GBPVR's configuration. Do you know how to do that ?

2) irremote.ini := I tried to program the GO button to start GBPVR.EXE as follows:
GO={run(c:\program files\devnz\gbpvr\gbpvr.exe)}
when I press the GO button it says "can't find C:\program"
I changed it to GO={run(c:\progra~1\devnz\gbpvr\gbpvr.exe)}
but it still says the same thing. I restart IR everytime I change the file.

3) If I get the DVD playback going with GBPVR I would like to use s/pdif out too. I can use that from powerdvd right now.

Thanks.

It tries to use the ones you've specified on the DVD tab of the config app, but some software install high-merit decoders which effectively tell the system to use them instead. Try viewing a DVD, then post you gbpvr.exe-native.log and I'll take a look.

Did you restart the IR app when you changed it to progra~1?

Yes, you'll be able to use spdif. This has been discussed in the past. Try the search button.

Graeme,

I had included my logs with my other post. Do you think you need more.Here is the link to that post.

#3) Change it thus: GO={run("c:\program files\devnz\gbpvr\gbpvr.exe")}

the "GO" issue has been resolved.
I am onto issue #1 now.

Try installing a program like AnyDVD or DVD43, that should resolve your first problem.

I never tried DVD43 before but I heard it's very similar to AnyDVD and it's freeware, where as AnyDVD you have to purchase.

thanks for the suggestion guys.
I really want to use cyberlink as the decoder. I find it to be much better than intervideo which is being used right now.

Thanks.
