Hi mediadogg.  Sorry ... busy time at work with upgrades.  I will write down the exact steps for each machine this weekend.  Thanks for your patience.
B.

Ok, based on our discussion via PM, I made some changes. Try V1.32 (Beta) on the web site and let me know what happens with all three machines (CX850D, CX860 and CX995V). Thanks. In location, use CX850 or CX850d, CX860 or CX995V1, CX995V2 or CX995V3.

Now up to version 1.33 with no feedback on updates for CX850D and CX860.

I am using the new version 1.33 since a few days. Now I observe very often an Application error of DVD Profiler. The exact message is: Exeption EAccessViolation in module dvdpro.exe at FFFFF010. Access violation at adress 00000010 ..... Is this a problem of the new version?

Absolutely. Never heard of or got this error before 1.32. Has to do with the shortcut-key stuff, which I just can't seem to get perfect. I'll keep trying. Maybe what I should do is create a "dual-pack", with and without the shortcut support. Those who don't need it shouldn't suffer the bug (well nobody should of course). If you don't need the changes I put into 1.33, go back to version 1.31 while I get that bug fixed!

Hi!  This looks like exactly what I need.  Unfortunately, I have to seccond the Access Violation issue with 1.3.3.  The only difference is my address is 00000000.  Immediately upon launching DVD Profiler, I get a modal error message, and clicking OK seems to repeat the message indefinitely.  This is under Win XP SP2.  I'll try the downgrade and see if that works better.

Looks ike I need to get off my butt and get it fixed! Yes, please let me know if 1.31 works for you - it should. And it has basically the same function. Only some updates for Sony CX850D control and Shortcut keys (which I think has the bug) have been added beyond that.

Hi,
Thanks for this very interesting plugin... I wish I could make it work
I have installed various versions 1.31 and 1.33 on multiple computer and I could never see any additionnal icon whatsoever. Nor find any loadDVD command to add to a toolbar. Did I do anything wrong ?    What could cause this annoying behavior ? Please help.
I can confirm the plugin is loaded and the DVDprofile version is registered. version is 3.1.1 build 1171
I'm using win XP sp2 and got no carousel but would like to use files from my network. would be great.
With version 1.33 I have error access violation that didn't appear with previous version.
thanks in advance.

Your other question is answered several time in prior posts. There is no icon. There is a toolbar (pictures are posted on the website and Invelos Downloads section). Also, there is a context (right-click) menu.

For a couple of dozen explicit examples, please read this thread, starting from my description in the first post. Then you can selectively search or scan based on keywords. Future questions should be: "I tried this .....  and this happened ... what is wrong" (like you did before  ) instead of "what do I do now?" That would be appreciated. I can help you better that way.

Hi Mediadogg,
thanks for your answer. Unfortunately I can confirm there is no toolbar installed by the program and even if I'm not absolutely sure about how the contextual menu should look like there is no command available for sure.
I installed the version 1.31 and it shows as installed and active. The toolbar is not there. and there is no play command anywhere. I use a french version of DVD profiler. Would that cause any problem to the plugin ?

>Execution: The menu item is selected from the DVD pulldown menu. When selected, the requested operation is performed.

no way, I have nothing like play in the DVD pulldown menu.

>(1) Look at the Tools/Plugins menu. If the LoadDVD is not listed there, then so far as DVDProfiler is concerned - it is not installed. (I assume you are a resgistered user, or unregistered with less than 50 profiles in the database, otherwise plugins are disabled by Invelos). If it is there, then make sure that it is enabled with a checkmark. If all of this is done ok, the "LoadDVD" menu item should appear on the DVD pulldown.

negative. plugin is active and installed without error message and dvdprofiler is paid and registered but LoadDVD menu item doesn't appear on the DVD pulldown nor anywhere else

>(2) If you can't find it in (1), re-run the installation program, and make note of any errors. Report the error here.

therefore I did it.. even tryied the 1.33 version "just in case" but indeed didn't help. installed it in 3 different machines without more success.

>(3) If install goes with no errors, but still no plugin in DVDPro, using WIndows Explorer, look into the DVDProfile folder under \plugins. There should be a folder \LoadDVD with abunch of stuff in there. Please report your findings.

Yes it is there and I can go to the options to switch "on/off" icon. no effect at all even after saving config and restarting DVDprofiler between changes. There is plenty of options about loaders witch I don't care.

Due to some other posts, I installed it from the local drive and not from my NAS in order to avoid problems. oviously that was not the point.

The fact is that it is not giving me any error message nor any warning, the command just doesn't show up.

I read already tons of threads about this plugin. a lot of things are about error messages or loaders which I don't have. I apologize if this is so obvious but I wonder how anyone can use this plugin if there is no toolbar nor contextual menu item nor anything like it to play the movie. It must be something wrong. 
I saw the small icon in the download section of the plugin and I confirm I never saw this in my DVDProfiler install. I tried to recover the toolbar manually by extracting commands but could not find it in the lists.

Well. the toolbar is not showing after brand new installation. I tried to create it manually without success. how could I get this toolbar visible ? What is wrong ?
please.
PS: it doesn't help much if you say it has been discussed in multiple theads without giving a link. For some reason I didn't find the answer to my problem in the forum and would still greatly appreciate this plugin to be working with my setup. Any help is greatly appreciated anyway.

Thanks for your help Mediadogg.
I confirm the version 1.33 was just for testing. I downgraded to 1.31 when I saw it was still not working.
I used the right click on the collection and couldn't find anything... so I kept going through part of my collection icons and suddently I saw it ! So for an unknown reason, the "play/retrieve disc" command is only shown for some movies icons and not all 
What is the reason it appears only for some movies and not all ?
Anyway after I found and executed the command, then (finally) the toolbar appeared and I could configure and test the plugin as expected. It seems the icon still disappears depending the movie I select. it is not related to the path value cause sometimes it shows the icon with an empty path and sometimes not and the other way around. It is still not working as I want but this time I belive I can go on cause I found the toolbar.
Thanks very much for your help.

OK I believe I found the reason it was not showing.
In the profile information for my movies, I edited the profile and look for disc section. For some reason the profile didn't contain any disc so I added one manually and the icon appeared. I did the same for all the profiles where the icon was not showing in the toolbar (there was a lot) and it seems to be showing better now. It is related to the language somehow. indeed if the profile is crappy for french movies, french DVD editions the plugin will not show the command and drive me crazy 

You know I did think about that - it has happened before, so I assumed that you had already ruled that out. Bad assumption I guess. Anyway, at least now you know. If the profile has no discs, I don't show an icon - that's true, since I wouldn't know what to do if the icon was clicked. The database entry for the disc would not exist. I'm still curious about the language thing. Is the plugin menu text subject to translation?

And I wonder if we need something in the plugin tools that devleopers use to allow other plugin text to take advantage of the powerful language customization of DVD Profiler? What do you think?
