Thanks for your answers. I'll try/test a bit more on weekend.
(Try to make some contributions this evening, so on weekend I'll go on)

Btw, fyi, your shop is offline since a few days. 

OMG Thank you! I did some maintenance and then forgot to turn it back on!

Version 1.80 Available

This is an emergency update due to a change in the Netflix web site that rendered Netflix functions inoperable.

Sorry for the frequent updates. Trying to hold the next one until official 3.6.

As usual, all existing customers can re-download for free. Uninstall prior version before installing the new one.

Version 1.84 Available:

Unofficial V1.83 change to default Play/Retrive verb to "Open" is adopted. If this results in an error, the verb "Play" is used.

Longstanding request for shortcut Play/Retrive is now satisfied. The temporary solution in V1.82 has been replaced by "Ctrl-disc#" as the shortcut key, unless there is a problem with that. This works for up to 9 discs. Not sure what to do after that. Suggestions welcomed.

Additional fixes to track Netflix API changes.

If you have purchased LoadDVD Pro in the past, you are eligible for a free upgrade by logging in to www.mediadogg.com/shopping with the same userid and password you used before. Download access should be reset within 24 hours from now.

Yes, I understand. LoadDVD Pro is built on top of LoadDVD, so all the intsructions are not repeated here. What you need is described here. You will be using items (3) and (4). Note that in addtion to the Filepath, you can optionally use a URL to specify the file path, such as: <a disc=1 href="c:\myfile.avi">Play Me</a>, instead of [Filepath disc=1]c:\myfile.avi[/Filepath].

In summary, you can play files in LoadDVD Pro in the following ways:

(1) Using "file" in the Location field and Filepath in Notes (same as LoadDVD). In LoadDVD Pro, these files will optionally also play in the built-in media player in a docked window. Clicking on the Play/Retrieve menus or disc icons will play the file.
(2) You can load files into the Playlist Manager. You can save and load playlists at any time. (Pro feature).
(3) You can play Netflix trailers and Instant Movies. Also you can play Youtube, Hulu, Vevo, Veoh, Google videos and many other flash-based videos from a common playlist. (Pro Feature).

Check your Location field. It shoudl have the word "file", not the filepath

Also, the playlist is totally separate. You don't need to have the file in both places. The playlist does not persist. On the other hand, what you put into the Notes and Location fields is saved in the database. The Playist is saved only if you explicitly save it.

Edit: I'm not sure what you mean about reloading the media player. There is no need to do that.

Hi, actually I have answsered your question several times now, but due to your inexperience with DVD Profiler, it is not apparent to you. Some time down the road, you will reflect on this I'm sure.

The Location field is one of the DVD Profiler database fields found on the Personal Infomration page.

What you are trying to do, is exactly what LoadDVD was designed for. No need to keep asking if it can be done. I'm sorry that the Overview description does not make that clear.

I will summarize once again, information from the link I gave you, and also reposted previously.

(1) Put the word "file" (no quotes) in the location field
(2) Put the filepath into a [Filepath] or <a href = ... > type of specification in Notes.

The file file will play whenever you click on the disc icon, either in the Player or externally, depending on how you set things up. Of course, each Profile must have at leat one disc defined, since the Location field is part of the personal information of each disc.

There is no need to use the PlayList, or the PlayList icon for this purpose. It is an entirely different feature that is used for a different purpose, and there is a detailed User Guide with pictures and examples that describes how to use that - but you do not need it at this time.

The "Append ..." menu is there as a convenience in case you want to copy an item from the playlist into notes, to save some typing. You only need to do that once, just to get the filepath into Notes. Of course you can just copy / paste that into Notes manually, or just type it in yourself. Doesn't mattrer, so long as the filepath gets put there in the proper format.
