MPC-BE Default DVD Player

[Theldron]

Hi all,

 

I want to set MPC-BE (Black Edition) as the default DVD player on autorun for the staff laptops, how would I do this?

 

Cheers

The following registry settings will make MPC-BE the default for DVDs when a user double-clicks the drive in File Explorer.

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\DVD\shell]
@="PlayWithMPC"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\DVD\shell\PlayWithMPC]
@="Play with MPC-BE"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\DVD\shell\PlayWithMPC\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\MPC-BE x64\\mpc-be64.exe\" %1 /dvd"

 

After /dvd you could add /fixedsize 800,600 to make the window larger than it is by default or /fullscreen to play the DVD fullscreen.

Just to add to my previous post, the @ symbol means the default value.
