If you Roll-Your-Own with vPlug 7.4 and MT, you need vplug.ini

[EVD]

If you are using vPlug to "roll-your-own", start MyTheatre without this file, the program will hang. If you run vplug and mytheatre and the ini is there but is turned on, mytheatre may freeze (mine always does).

Solution? Batch file (I am assuming you know how to move files around, and know what a batch file is.) The batch file will always make sure the vplug is turned off when you start mytheatre.

First create VPLUG.INI. Cut and paste these two lines into notepad and save with the quotation marks, "vplug.ini" If you don't use the quote marks your file may accidnetly get called vplug.ini.txt You don't want that. Put "vplug.ini" in the same place as vplug.dll (WIth ProgDVB it can go in Progdvb directory or Plugins; with MyTheatre it MUST go in the MDplugins directory).

Now save the same file and call it "OFFvplug.ini"

Put it in the same place as you put the last file.

Now cut and paste the following batch file into notepad and save as "WhateverYouWant.BAT"

Here is the batch file:

Quote:
CD "C:\Program Files\MyTheatre"
Copy "MDplugins\OFFvplug.ini" "MDplugins\vplug.ini"
"C:\Program Files\MyTheatre\MTStart.exe" /toggle


Put the BAT file where ever you want. I put mine in the MyTheatre root and then created a shortcut, and put the shortcut in my Quick Launch.

New version of vplug 0.7.4 supports both DISH and BEV .said to autoroll
