Namaste.
I was wondering what DVD Video Codecs are compatible with BioEra.
There are many open source codecs out there, notably the K-Lite Pack and Dscaler, that I would love to see BioEra work with.

The DScaler worked for me when I tried it. I don't know about the other. In general all DVD decoders should work with BioEra, but some have problems (typically with audio). The WinDVD 8 Gold has been tested the most and works great.

I generally use Dscaler 5008 with the 64 bit extensions added on. This combination works for Bioexplorer and Brainmaster, but I haven't had any luck getting it to work with BioEra yet. I'll give it another try though, it has been a few month since I've fiddled with a BioEra installation and configuration.

Tried it again today.. the Dscaler Codec (which works fine with Bioexplorer and Brainmaster on this same system) will not load in the latest build of BioEra.

I just tried it again on Windows 7, 64 bit (Intel) and it works well.

Make sure you set those properties on the DVDPlayer:

Or if that doesn't work, try set also the Manual tab like this:
