Does cMP manage to play movies through ASIO which is normally used in its music delivery? The fact that an ISO file is loaded into memory shouldn't make it capable of playing through ASIO...
cMP will not dictate audio output settings. I use a separate cMP for DVDs with 1TB of storage. In your case, you could use one cMP but this would require switching players (via .pth) file for Music and Movies. Your idea of using ASIO is very good if only you can find a DVD player that supports ASIO. This way, main L&R channels remain as is whilst additional channels are used for movies. You may want to look into Zoom Player.
Also, do not RAM load ISO files - they way too large.
cics,
You as developer of cPlay, is a multi-channel version of cPlay totally impossible supporting therefore ASIO? :)
I suppose you get into a labbyrint of A/V codecs...
I am prepared to switch players for Music and for Movies.
Unfortunately, as you say "Your idea of using ASIO is very good if only you can find a DVD player that supports ASIO".
That is a huge "ONLY".
It means that Music player would use ASIO and Movie player would use DirectSound. It also means that my 2ch configuration - bi-amp + digital XO - is not feasable.
I did have a look at Zoom Player, but it does not support ASIO. Actually, other people requested it but developers do not seem too interested in that.It looks like I have reached the end of the road! :((
I am now looking into the possibility of entering the PC with an external DVD player and come out through ASIO...I wander if it is possible?!

J River media centre has ASIO output with DVD's.
