Thishas been an issue bought up to Intel a while ago and still not fixed.

I wouldn't get your hopes up as of yet for 3D playback with new version. The Kaby Lake has issues with HDMI 2.0 ports.

See:

I am running the most current version of PowerDVD15 Ultra. I use it to playback my Blu Ray .iso images.My question is this. I am getting a new Denon AVR-X6200W receiver in few days an setup up a Dolby ATMOS 7.2.4 speaker setup. Will PowerDVD passthough the ATMOS stream to the AVR?

I am having some issues with Audio playback with my setup.

I have a Pioneer SC-1522-K AVR that connects all my AV equipment. I have an Intel NUC NUC5i5RYH connected to the AVR via HDMI. I am running Windows 8.1 Pro 64x and newest PowerDVD 15 Ultra. I am using Virtual CloneDrive to mount my ISO files. When playback in PowerDVD when it starts is Blu Ray has previews etc and see them and get sound. Normally once the Blu Ray comes up sound stops. When I start the movie still have no sound until I change HDMI Output Mode within PowerDVD to PCM decoded by PowerDVD then I get sound but not bitsteam. At this point I can change it to Non-decoded Dolby Digital/DTS audio to external device or Non-decoded high-definition audio to external device (HDMI 1.3 and above) and will work for the movie.

When movie done and watch a new one I need to do this all over again. It's a REAL pain dealing with this!

Anyone have this issues or ideas?

Well I have been messing with this a lot in PowerDVD 15. I am finding that this code works best for getting Cinema Mode.PlayDVD.bat: I am using this on my HTPC in Theater Room with our Epson 3d 2030 projector. We have a Harmony Ultimate Home remote to keep simple for family. When I was using TMT 6 if pressed stop on the remote it would close TMT and go back to Kodi. With this setup it doesn't. You need to click the X to close the program then you'll get Kodi. I would like to find some way to close program easy so doesn't need to keep a mouse in Theater room.

So I think I have found the issue just not sure how and if can fix this. I found what when running the PlayDVD.bat file the image mounts. Then PDVDLP loads then it jumps right the unmounts iso. If I put a timeout of say 60 secs you can play iso for 1 minute. If you run PowerDVD.exe instead then the unmounts doesn't run until you close the program.playercorefactory: PlayDVD.bat:

Quote: I use

C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD15\Movie\PowerDVD Cinema\PowerDVDCinema.exe

instead of

C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD15\PowerDVD.exe

to start in cinema mode. I just wish I knew how to get it to launch fullscreen. It will always start in the last state you left it. So if you left it windowed it will start windowed, if you left it fullscreen it will start fullscreen.

I use an actual optical drive with physical discs so that could make a difference.

When I do that I get the issue above. Where is start Cinema mode but doesn't play.

So if I use this code:

Set file=%1Set dummy=%file:iso=%IF NOT %dummy% == %file% (GOTO playiso) ELSE (goto next):nextSet file=%1Set dummy=%file:mpls=%IF NOT %dummy% == %file% (GOTO plaympls) ELSE (goto playbdmv):playiso"D:\Program Files (x86)\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\VCDMount.exe" /d=0 %1"C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD15\PowerDVD.exe" H:"D:\Program Files (x86)\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\VCDMount.exe" /d=0 /uGOTO end:playmplsset pth=%1set pth=%pth:~1,-25%"C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD15\PowerDVD.exe" "%pth%" exitGOTO end:playbdmvset pth=%1set pth=%pth:BDMV\MovieObject.bdmv=%set pth=%pth:BDMV\index.bdmv=%"C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD15\PowerDVD.exe" %pth% exitGOTO end:endexit

It autostarts and plays. However I would like to start in Cinema code but can't seem to figure out how the add the command line switch for that to try.

This is the code I am trying right now:

Powercorefactory:

<playercorefactory> <players> <player name="ISO_BDMV_Player" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true"> <filename>C:\Users\Ray\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\PlayISO.bat</filename> <args>"{1}"</args> <hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc> <hideconsole>True</hideconsole> <warpcursor>none</warpcursor> </player> </players> <rules action="prepend">   <rule filetypes="iso|bdmv|mpls" player="ISO_BDMV_Player"/> </rules> </playercorefactory>

And PlayISO.bat:

Set file=%1Set dummy=%file:iso=%IF NOT %dummy% == %file% (GOTO playiso) ELSE (goto next):nextSet file=%1Set dummy=%file:mpls=%IF NOT %dummy% == %file% (GOTO plaympls) ELSE (goto playbdmv):playiso"D:\Program Files (x86)\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\VCDMount.exe" /d=0 %1"C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD15\Movie\PowerDVD Cinema\PowerDVDCinema.exe" H:"D:\Program Files (x86)\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\VCDMount.exe" /d=0 /uGOTO end:playmplsset pth=%1set pth=%pth:~1,-25%"C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD15\Movie\PowerDVD Cinema\PowerDVDCinema.exe" "%pth%" exitGOTO end:playbdmvset pth=%1set pth=%pth:BDMV\MovieObject.bdmv=%set pth=%pth:BDMV\index.bdmv=%"C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD15\Movie\PowerDVD Cinema\PowerDVDCinema.exe" %pth% exitGOTO end:endexit

When it runs the iso mounts and PowerDVDCinema starts. However it's not playing the H: drive. I am getting this:

As you can see it's looking at H: drive. Then I need to click the mouse and I will get this screen:

From here if I select H: this screen comes up:

If I click restart all works. Also when I stop the movie it doesn't clock PowerDVD. I would like it to close to go back to Kodi.If anyone knows what I might be doing wrong that would be great!

Quote: I use the below for my <a>playercorefactory.xml</a>

My optical drive is letter D:\

I use this I change to H:\ since that is drive when I play with PowerDVD my iso mounts to.

When I use this powercore PowerDVD Cinema runs but I am at PowerDVD Movie Library screen. It looks like the image never mounts.

I am looking for the same. I want to use PowerDVD 15 Ultra to playback all my bd and 3d bd .iso files.

I am trying to keep as simple as I can but running into some issues. When using TMT6 in the past Kodi would launch Elaborate Bytes and mount the iso files and then run TMT6 and auto play the movies. When using PowerDVD 14 or 15 Elaborate Bytes mounts iso files. Then when PowerDVD starts it shows the mounted drive with Blu Ray but doesn't auto play them. I want to keep simple for the family to use. Also when playing movies hard to control. I heard there are some /cmd arguments to change playback mode making it smipler but since new to PowerDVD not sure what those could be.

Also issue I am seeing is PowerDVD doesn't detect if content of the Blu Ray is 3d or not. When I start it I need to selected (right click) and turn on 3d. TMT6 would just detect it. After doing that it plays after later if run a non 3d blu ray you need to do the same and turn it off.

Quote: Why not saving 2D BD ISO to 3D video also and then no need to change the settings?

I am trying to keep all my Blu Ray's true 1 to 1 copiers of what I own.

So I am looking for some help. I have been using TMT 6 for my external player to play all my BD .iso and 3d BD .iso files I mount with VirtualClone.It's been working pretty well until last few MS updates it seems. I was thinking about buying PowerDVD 14 since it's current and supported but when trying the trial version found few issues maybe someone can help with.First is I can't seem to get PowerDVD to auto play when launched from Kodi. I am not sure what might be wrong other than maybe a command line statement needed?Also doesn't seem to auto detect source if it's 3d content. All my 3d and 1 to 1 copies of movies so they are TRUE 3d. I can change it manually and works however when start a movie non 3d I need to manually change back.Trying to keep simple for my kids.

Ever get an answer? Trying same thing. I want my mounted .iso and 3d .iso files to auto play. Also finding it doesn't auto detect movies in 3d. I need to change it and works. However when start next non 3d movie it's in 3d mode and need to change it back.
