Can't play ISO DVD movies
AlexS:
Hi
I'm running 26.0.102 on Catalina.
I've managed to get Media Centre to auto import ISO files and data files.
If I double click I can get the ISO to open.
The ISO is a movie and I want to play it. I can't seem to do it either within Media Center or by launching it outside the app. As a workaround I'm using the VLC player right now.
Any ideas? Please note I've got no issues with the Windows version.
Appreciated!

Was trying to help you but noticed you aren't on Windows ...

Right now the playback of ISOs containing video content doesn't work on Mac or on Linux. This is because on Media Center on Windows relies on Windows' components to mount and playback ISOs containing video content, which obviously isn't there on non-Windows platforms. JRiver would have to develop their own cross-platform solution from scratch, which seems like a big project hence why they haven't done so as of yet.
You'll have to use something like MakeMKV to rip the ISOs to MKV files to play them in MC.
Here's a couple topics explaining it: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,122068.0.html and https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,117701.msg815092.html#msg815092

Ouch.
Isn't there a third party component that can be integrated...?
How about VLC integration for instance?
Thx.

How about using MKV?
