Hi, this is a script i made for PowerDVD. It's basically just a modified VLC script that Salling made adapted to PowerDVD. Enjoy.

BTW, the documentation for scripting is quite lacking. IMHO for better scripts Salling should gather all the info about scripting and put up a nice DB/FAQ kinda thing for it.

Thanks for this great script loftzon!

It's really useful, especially as recently I have found that powerdvd is working much smoother for me than windvd (for which Daffy wrote a really great script!)

Just wondering if there was any chance that you or anybody else would be able to improve/ tweak it slightly? (Of course its great as it is but I am just being greedy in case anyone feels like doing this - I have no clue how!)

Specifically I would love it if there was

1) an open movie/ open file option

2) ability to ffwd / rwd at different speeds

3) option to switch subtitles while movie is playing

Thanks so much in advance

:D

I have the new PowerDVD 7 (released just a day or 2 ago), and when you try to open PowerDVD with this script, it opens OK but then the script on the remote does not realise it has been opened and therefore will not let you progress beyond the "Launching PowerDVD..." screen.

Can someone who knows about scripting possibly rectify this/modify the script to run with PDVD7?

Thanks! :P

Hey folks,

I took the script from above and adapted it to PowerDVD 7. It works slightly different to the version 6 script.
And I think "Rewind" is not working - at least not on my maschine. Please feel free to try it out and tell me if the modified script works an your maschines as well.

Or if you miss some funtionality, I may add it on request. But so far I only understood how to implement the functions accessible through keystrokes. So please check the PowerDVD 7 Help File for possible keyboard commands, bevor you mail me.

Short usage description:
On my nokia phone, the Navi Buttons work as follows:
Center Play/Pause
Right: Forward, press multiple times for speed adjustments.
Left: Rewind (Press and Hold - well, doesn't work for me..)
Up: Volume Up (Press and Hold!)
Down: Volume Down (Press and Hold!)

Hey,
does anybody know how to create an hdrop oder DROPFILES structure?

Currently the PowerDVD Script passes the video file to open through the command line, so PowerDVD is somewhat re-opened everytime.
I'd prefer to pass the File via Drag&Drop (because it would allow to pass multiple files and create a playlist that way). Windows knows the WM_DROPFILES event to do this, but unfortunately I couldn't figure out how to create the neccassary data structure (the hdrop).

Can anybody help?

Additionally you could post me some program functions you're missing very badly. I just found out about Salling Clicker 2 days ago and right now I'm so happy to play around with it, that I might finish the PDVD Script. :-)

FYI, I did a total rework of the PowerDVD scripts, with many more options. See here for the download and description...
