Blu-ray menus
SamuriHL:
So, Nev.....any chance we'll see blu-ray menu support added to MC? :D Would be sweet to add more blu-ray functionality to make it a truly unique experience. Just something to consider. :)
Hendrik:
I doubt it. It would be weeks, if not months, of work for something that might throw us into legal hot water and/or cost tens of thousands in license fees.
Would need a serious commitment to do it, and I'm not sure thats something we want at this point, especially keeping linux and mac in mind, which also eventually want video support, and can't use DirectShow.
Of course maybe Matt disagrees, and its on his list of long wished-for features that he'll pitch at me next year..... :)
InflatableMouse:
You folks must be thinking (or even testing) about Linux and Mac, how to support video or MC20 ;D
Will we see LAV on those platforms or are you considering using existing stuff? I don't think Madshi has any plans supporting those platforms so we'd need another renderer :(.
What about Haali?
Mike Noe:
Lately I've had to go back to Windows for some things and I am amazed (yet again) at the level quality of video playback with LAV/madVR/MediaCenter vs. VLC or Mplayer on Linux. Just the smooth motion option alone in madVR is enough for me (for FullHD playback). Even my kid can spot frame drops or other anomalies in VLC(or MPlayer) that just simply don't occur on the Windows side. Granted, this may not just be player (playback chain) issues, but I just don't believe it's possible to get the level of quality that LAV/madVR/JRiver provide currently on the Linux platform. It's a formidable goal post, to be sure.
SamuriHL:
Well, I was just thinking it'd be something to differentiate MC a bit more vs things like VLC and other freeware products. Menu support would be a really useful feature to have to make a more complete blu-ray playback. Especially for things like episode discs. Just something to consider. :)
