Dvd player

IS there a libary or a example to create a dvd player in pb?

Has anyone got an answer to this question? I've just been searching the forum for the same thing!

InterVideo WinDVD uses a "Screen Overlay", but I don't like this because I need to project a DVD onto a projector via wireless, and I can't use overlays.

You would probably have to find a DVD decoder somewhere and use it to do this.

P.S: If anyone does this, could they please make a full screen mode?

Hm I think this is not very easy to realize if you try to do all the work in your code. (showing and interprate DVD Menus etc. etc.)

One idea I have: Open a WebGadget and open a template of the WindowsMedia-Player on it.

The problem with your Beamer:
You only need to specify the primary display to the beamers output device then you will see the overlayed mode there. I had this problem too with my beamer some month ago. But only with ATI Gfx cards, Nvidia clones the overlay-mode to every output device. hm....

I've done some research on DVD drivers, etc. It appears that they all require DirectShow, which must be the overlay thingy.

Calling up a Windows Media Player? Yes, but not in my case - it still won't do a fullscreen thing, or use DirectX and not DirectShow.

[edit]Because the projector is on wireless, it doesn't actually have an output device. I'm using a Panasonic projector, btw.[/edit]

For a Player look in the Examples/MovieSprite PB this uses an overlayd 3d sprite to render on ( which imo get sthe speed / quality best result ) Everything else will be software decoded and pixelized due 2d rendering.

As for the player you just need a valid MP2 Codec installed on your system to be able to open the streams via PB Movie() Functions.
As For the Menus you can either look at the Opensource Menumanagers and see how they pars the info files from dvd or fiddle one yourself. As for a homemade DVD Player you also may want to check out ->

good free open source mpeg2 dvd decoder

There are examples in the DirectX Library SDK of how to build a DVD playback chain incl. DVD navigator etc. its all delivered in DirectXSDK.

The playback itself uses for decoding an installed mpeg2 decoder via Directshow. There are available elecard, gpl-mpegdec, intervideo and so on - so it depends on the users dshow system setup IF dvd/mpeg2 playback is possible or refused.

BUT! 90% of available DVDs are CSS decrypted. So you wont playback them without screen garbage. This encryption will be inversed by the DeCss Library, included i.E. in DVDdecrypter as DVD-Ripper. or ... also VideoLan.

And here starts the problem: In several countries the descrambling of CSS protected DVD sources is strictly prohibited by laws. So IF you do provide such a deCSSing DVD playback application you should be aware of that.
Intervideo maybe gots i.E. a special license or permission for their player - I dont know as its legal.

DScaler DVD decoder (free and open source) can handle CSS DVD's, maybe someone try interface it with purebasic if they know c++ ?? would be nice...

They do use imho http://developers.videolan.org/libdvdcss/

but as told this makes your appl. illegal in some countries.

I'm interested in this topic also - I've just started the research..

I was just reading about Microsoft's DVD-Video API, which seems to be only available for WinCE. It seems like a very comprehensive API - enough to develop a complete DVD player in software in conjunction with DirectX. I'm wondering if this API is available outside of WinCE...

About CSS, their doc says

.. about Content Scrambling System (CSS) .. and .. analog protection system (APS).

These content protection schemes are completely transparent to the DVD-Video API. All of the data and signal processing to implement these schemes takes place at a low level between the DVD drive, the DVD renderer, and internal portions of the DVD-Video API middleware that are inaccessible to the DVD-Video API interfaces.

So perhaps CSS is taken care of. Great if you're on the CE platform

.

I see Elecard also offer a SDK but it's not clear whether they can deal with CSS (and price by application).

If anyone knows of any other possible DVD player solutions (as a DLL etc) for PB, please offer your suggestion. Thanks.

Those elecard, invideo, dscaler, Gabest, etc - mpeg2-DirectShow codecs DON'T descramble CSS datacontent theirselfes. The descrambling has to be processed BEFORE the data will be provided to the Dshow mpeg2 decoder, otherwise that protection would be off its purpose. Stand Alone apps like WinDVD do got a license to include such a legal de-CSS routine which is independant from the used Dshow codec.

It works as followed: On consumer CSS protected DVDs the inner ring of the DVD Media contains a decryption code. Thats why "For mastering" and "For general use" blank DVD Media types are available. Those common "For general use" DVD Medias dont have that inner datasurface and so if the data just have been copied from the orig to such a blank "For general use" DVD media it cant be decrypted anymore

The VideoLan VLC media player can play DVD. It is an open source project so maybe you can take a look at this

I've done a lot of research and found that MS developed a full DVD player in the form of a COM object (MSWebDVD & MSVidWebDVD). This is a very comprehensive object, with which you can build a fully-functioning DVD player. To my happiness, this discovery co-incided with Stefan's announcement of his excellent COM interface release here. With that, I could quickly cobble together a very basic demo, see below. Insert a DVD first (disable any auto-start DVD player softwares you have), then run the program. A pre-requisite of this code is you need a working MPEG2 decoder installed (presumably one that works with DirectX). If you get this to work, I'd be interested to hear what MPEG2 decoder worked for you (hopefully a free one, I'm probably using one that is part of a built-in DVD player software). Obviously this code will only work with Windows (I think Win2000 & XP only, maybe Win98 users can be lucky if you have the mswebdvd.dll in your system32 folder).

Simple keyboard interaction - F2 = next chapter, F1 = prev chapter, Esc to quit, F10 to jump to the root menu.

I have to stress, a sincere thanks to Stefan for his COM interface generator - without it, this would not be possible. So a huge thanks to Stefan!

@mskuma

Thanks for the code. To get it to work I downloaded DSCALER found here:

http://www.dscaler.org/downloads.htm

Using there software, I can get sound and video, however with your code, only the video, no sound. Is there a separate function for sound?

Thanks again.

Hi Straker - I've just tried the code again as-is on another PC and the audio is fine. I think this PC uses the InterActual Player for its MPEG2 decoding. Maybe try another disc or decoder.
