I think there is some miscommunication in your post  (language issues?) , Kodi has most file types covered and can play them, no need to set up external players. External players (wiki) If your goal is to play videos with mpc, ensure that player works, then follow the instructions External players (wiki) the example set-up should work. This support thread may help if you are using windows.

Hello, I am using google translate. The mpc player works perfectly on kodi but I don't know why the kodi player doesn't work anymore. I would like to have two players to choose from, when I set the mpc xml file, the kodi player does not work It's a pity that there is no Kodi 20 dsplayer anymore

The support thread & link I left should help out, continue your discussion in that thread.

This is my playercorefactory.xml from the players I have chosen, it gives the opportunity to use the context menu for 'play using' while maintains default Kodi as 'play' note: you will need to edit the path to various players.
 

Code:

<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="MPC-BE" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files\MPC-BE x64\mpc-be64.exe</filename>

<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
<playcountminimumtime>1140</playcountminimumtime>
</player>
<player name="mpc-hc64" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
