We need konfoo to have a look at this, if somebody else wants to try and post the log too, that might help to diagnose this...

I went back and edited my reply, and I think I was editing when you replied Smile
Look back up at it. Note the double entry of the app name on the Execute App line.

Greg

maybe an issue in parsing the args section, can you try running it without the arg section filled in ?

Still there....
(and still locking up XBMC)

<launchplayer>
<defaultplayer>false</defaultplayer>

no clue i'm afraid, its up to konfoo and the other dev's to have a look
i assume that if you use another external player you get the same problem...

- GregKeys - 2008-12-04 23:06

Took out the args section completely. Still doubled up.....

Fixed it!
XBMC does not seem to like launching with the long space embedded filename for the player. Moved the player, and it now works:

<advancedsettings>
<launchplayer>
<defaultplayer>false</defaultplayer>
<filename>C:\MPC\mplayerc.exe</filename>
</launchplayer>
</advancedsettings>

Hi Jester... it was too good to be true Sad

With the following advancedsettings.xml:
Code:
<advancedsettings>
<launchplayer>
<defaultplayer>true</defaultplayer>
<filename>C:\Program Files\Zoom Player\zplayer.exe</filename>
<args>/Q /FS /PLAY /MOUSEOFF</args>
</launchplayer>
</advancedsettings>
I get XBMC using DVDPlayer for default just the same. And if I select "Play using... Launchplayer" Zoomplayer starts in the background and there's no way of alt-tabbing there. I'm about to cry... Sad

Log for when I just launch a video (and it uses DVDplayer even if the default should be Launchplayer): http://pastebin.com/m5719f30f

Log for when I launch a video using Launchplayer and Zoomplayer starts in the background: http://pastebin.com/m288b71c1

It's not the long space embedded filename, it's the fact that you don't need the " to embed the spaces. I tried putting " at the beginning and end of the filename and it locked up XBMC for me too. Wink
