Hi there,
I am trying to play videos from xbmc thru my Chrome browser. So basically, when I choose a movie, I want it to play within the browser instead from within xbmc. I tried to follow instructions in this youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmyxUVDMYEU but the videos still play within xbmc.
I am attaching my playercorefactory.xml with the updated path to Chrome. I am pretty sure my chrome path is correct. I have put the playercorefactory.xml in /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/XBMC/system
Just to point out, the only file in the system folder is playercorefactory.xml and not sure if there should be more?
My end goal is to use chrome browser to cast the videos to my tv using Chromecast
