OK the player that comes with the Hollywood Plus just plain sucks, it's 2 simple.
I like the PC-DVD from Creative, but can't install it and crap.
Is there a way to use the DXR3 Drivers on the H+ or are there any other players that I can use???

Thanx,
Nore

DXR3 drivers on the H+ is possible....they are the same hardware after all...might need a BIOS flash if possible? But other decoders are a big no.

I know what you mean, the hollywood plus player is pretty annoying (I used to use WinDVD and I'm used to it's right click menus and that's the biggest annoyance for me)

But no PowerDVD, WinDVD and the like are all coded for software DVD decoders, you are SOL for using any of those with a hardware decoder.

Just buy the remote from sigma then it will seem like a set top DVD player :)

Gues i'll buy a control, even though all the places ive gone to are sold out.

BTW when I install the DXR3 drivers on the H+, they wont install right, I get the crappy ass yellow ! in Device Manager, :(

Thanx,
Nore

PS: Maybe there are hacked drivers somewhere

Yes, it should work with any DVD-ROM drive. You might want to check the website for specific compatibility issues.
