Does CMC support DVDFab player 6?
(I used to use PowerDVD 20 but is doesn't support Atmos.) When I go into the Video Playback Options on CMC, it keeps saying PowerDVD even though I have deleted it completely and can't change it to DVDFab Player 6. Is it because I'm only using the demon version of DVDFab at the moment? I wanted to check that I can use Atmos, but I have to pay for the Ultra version.

Yes, DVDFab Player 6 is supported. I don't understand why you can't select it. Perhaps you can show some screenshots of what isn't working for you.

Just an FYI. CMC does not look at your system to see which players you have installed. Do you double click on the powerdvd text to select whatever player you want to use? If not, try it. If you have done that then maybe you have found a bug.

I've got most it working now, giving me the selection of Blu-ray players, but I can't change the others, in the same section.
Have attached a screenshot too, as you asked.

Looks like you set it up correctly. Those 6 settings at the top being set to DVDFab Player is all you needed to do. You can ignore those PDVD settings, I gave extra options for PowerDVD and they always show, regardless of whether you use it or not.

The only other thing you have to do is make sure DVDFab Player is installed, and that CMC can see it. To check, go to Settings > Licensing & About CMC > Show Video Player Info. You'll see a window like this:


If you see DVDFab as having a path to the program, you're all good. Otherwise there's a problem.

Note, there is a bug in CMC v4.2 that causes DVDFab Player 6 to not be detected when in path "C:\Program Files (x86)\DVDFab\Player 6". I fixed this for CMC v5, which is in Beta now. I'm guessing this is why it's not working for you.

Yes it’s not showing like you said

Please confirm the full filepath to Player 5, so I may make sure it is working for CMC v5.
