Version
What version are you using?

  • [* ] Stable release (2.3)

Build
What runtime version are you using?

  • [* ] .NET Framework 4.8 running on (Windows 10)

Describe the issue
The MPF frontend detected a DVD Video disc (Indiana Jones in the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Disc 2 / Special Features) with an Xbox executable and folder as an Xbox 360 disc.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Insert disc into drive
  2. Click Detect Disc (or have the program do it automatically)
  3. Take a drink

Expected behavior
In theory it should detect the VIDEO_TS folder and autoselect DVD Video, but since it sees an Xbox executable, it probably goes for Xbox 360 instead.

Additional context
I'm not certain if this also happens with DVDs with Xbox demos. I'll update this if I find a disc to test.

I'm leaving this open but asking for help. I can't think of any reasonable way to determine if it's just an X360 game that happens to have the $SystemUpdate folder on it or if it's a DVD-Video that has a bonus X360 demo.

That's theoretically easy. Standard Xbox discs should have very little data in the VIDEO_TS folder. A demo disc I have hand has like, 13 MB of data in there.

Even the smallest DVD video would normally have like 500 MB there.

Confirming from a second source that 500MB seems like a reasonable cutoff.
