Title: Troubles with instance of MC
Post by: konst on September 03, 2012, 05:49:27 am
I have some questions.

1) I start Media Center and check Output format for first audio card. Then I start another instance of Media Center and check Output format for second audio card.  Format on first copy of MC changes as on second instance of MC. So I can't get different output formats  for different copies of MC.  Is that a bug of software or I made something wrong?

2) I have some audio cards on my comp. For bit-streaming (dts-hd and etc.) I use hdmi AUDIO (not video) card Auzen x-fi hometheater hd > Onkyo reciever.  For video I use Nvidia hdmi sli cards. I check option : video > bitstreaming (HDMI) and start blu-ray disk. In any combinations of output format MC can't play blu-ray disk. I don't have such problems in PowerDVD player. Don't you support internal hdmi AUDIO cards? Do you work only with hdmi video cards?

3) When playing blu-ray disk, MC doesn't show main menu with options, at once MC starts to play video. What to do to make MC starts from main menu?

Welcome.

Read about Zones in our wiki.  You want to run one instance, and configure two (or more) zones.

Thank you Matt. I solved the instances (zones of MC). What about other questions?
