only posting a new topic here since all the current ones i found couldnt make them work for me
OS : win 7 x64
tried with both xbmc-9.11 and xbmc-r28256-trunk but i get same results not being able to launch external player instead of the default one of xbmc (i do this mainly for the ability to have keyboard shortcuts for subtitle delay).
first i tried to make an advancedsettings in C:\Users\....\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata
like this:
<advancedsettings>
<video>
<defaultplayer>externalplayer</defaultplayer>
</video>
<externalplayer>
<filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\Combined Community Codec Pack\MPC\mpc-hc.exe</filename>
<args>/fullscreen</args>
<forceontop>true</forceontop>
<hideconsole>true</hideconsole>
<hidecursor>false</hidecursor>
</externalplayer>
<videolibrary>
<hideallitems>true</hideallitems>
<cleanonupdate>true</cleanonupdate>
</videolibrary>
</advancedsettings>
but it still uses the internal one of xbmc
then i tried the playercorefactory method from the wiki
and made a playercorefactory.xml in C:\Users\....\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata
like this :
<players>
<player name="MPC-HC" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\Combined Community Codec Pack\MPC\mpc-hc.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}" /fullscreen /close</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
</players>
<rule video="true" player="MPC-HC">
</rule>
but this is not working either. i read in one of the many pages i tried before posting that u have an option on the context menu "play with" but i dont get that option.
if someone could help or correct my .xml files i would appreciate it. if this has already been answered elsewhere in this forum and i missed it please provide a link since i search hours for it.
PS even watched a youtube video with example for using kmplayer.
