Help with Music Library and MPC-BE DVD Error
Posted: Mon Jul 04, 2022 6:33 am
Hi All,
I was hoping someone could help with two (probably very simple) unrelated problems I'm having.
Music Library - I have a about 20 music albums saved in E:\Music, I have told CMC where the music is located, and I have read the 'How to use the new music library' tutorial here https://chamconsoft.com/cmc/forums/?w3= ... YmdD04MQ==
But for the life of me I can't actually find where the music library is in CMC!! The tutorial says 'To access the Music Library, from the MM Browser main screen, arrow up until the Mode Switch Panel drops down from the top edge of the screen. Here you can select either the Movie Library on the left, or the Music Library on the right.' But what is 'MM' and where is it? I've tried every arrow up option in CMC, but nothing. If I click 'Show Music' in CMC I only see music DVD's. I've run a full synch many times....
The second problem I'm having is trying to play DVD files (TS IFO format files) with MPC-BE. MPC-BE will play the files directly with no problems, but if I allocate MPC-BE to play DVD's in CMC and select the DVD movie from CMC I get an error 'Unable to run "" "E:\Movies\Zombieland - Double Tap (Australia)" /dvd /fullscreen /play /close'.
I checked the error log and I get the following error from trying to play the DVD in CMC.
*** BEGIN OF PLAYCLICK DEBUG LOG ***
Disc Number=0
Disc Location=E:\Movies\Zombieland- Double Tap (Australia)
Disc Type=dtDVD
Container=ctDVDFolder
Validating Disc Location: E:\Movies\Zombieland- Double Tap (Australia)
Path is not a network device.
DVD Folder Exists: E:\Movies\Zombieland- Double Tap (Australia)\VIDEO_TS
Player=MPCBE
Player Commandline= "E:\Movies\Zombieland- Double Tap (Australia)" /dvd /fullscreen /play /close
Launching 'Media Player Classic'
*** END OF PLAYCLICK DEBUG LOG ***
To me it looks like CMC finds the DVD files in folder E:\Movies\Zombieland- Double Tap (Australia)\VIDEO_TS, but then CMC tells MPC-BE to play the files that are in folder E:\Movies\Zombieland- Double Tap (Australia). Notice the missing '\VIDEO_TS' in the folder path. So MPC-BE errors because there are no DVD files in E:\Movies\Zombieland- Double Tap (Australia), because they are located in E:\Movies\Zombieland- Double Tap (Australia)\VIDEO_TS.
I have saved moved from Win7/Media Centre/My Movies, to now Win10/CMC and over the last 10 years backed up my DVD collection of over 1,000 DVD's! I hope I don't need to manually update path details for over 1,000 DVD's?
Any help with these two problems?
Thanks
