Blu Ray Video is a Black Screen while Audio works Fine -Help
« on: October 18, 2013, 04:30:23 pm »

Hi,

When a ripped Blu Ray image is selected everything starts out fine PowerDVD 12 Ultra, and AnyDVD are launched and the disc is mounted by Virtual Clone.

Next the audio is playing the opening selection section of the Movie is visible after a few moments the screen goes black and Audio continues to play in a loop because nothing has been selected.  So I hit the enter on the keyboard which is the same for PowerDVD and the Movie plays with a black screen with the audio playing fine.

Also tried enabling and disabling video acceleration, I selected Red October standard and HQ in Video settings all with the same outcome.  My computer is hookup coaxial and DVI into my preamp.

In the setup custom programs were selected as shown below:

Any guidance or help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Tools-Options-File Types- Data-Virtual Clone
Tools-Options-File Types-Other-PowerDVD

I'm a little unclear.  Are you playing in PowerDVD 12 Ultra or in MC?

If you mount the disk manually, then try to drag the index.bdmv file into MC from Explorer, does it play?

I'm using MC 19, but PowerDVD to play Blu Rays is that not the correct way?

You might try using MC directly.  That way you can use our audio engine, Red October HQ, etc.

A few notes:

MC cannot use the menus, but it will play the main feature just fine automatically. This works great for movies; for demo discs and TV shows on Blu-Ray it's a little more complex.
MC can only play copy-protected BluRays if AnyDVD or another decrypter is installed. Since you've ripped the discs already, I'm assuming the rips are decrypted?
