Integrating Power DVD into Vista MCE

Furton · 13 Jan 2008 at 21:56

Is there a way I can integrate the version of PowerDVD that comes with the LG Blue-Ray/HD-DVD into Vista MCE? If I put a Blue-Ray disc in and try and play it in Vista MCE it says there is no program installed to play Blue-Ray drives, even though Power DVD is installed.

You might need to tell vista mce that it can use the power dvd codec for HD content.

so with this, if you tell vista mce to use the powerDVD decoder for hd-dvd and/or blu-ray you should be able to play HD and BD movies using media center instead of powerDVD?

That's the idea.
