External player rule audiochannels/audiocodec
#1
I'm trying to use an external player for AC3/DTS movies. Here's my playercorefactory.xml file:

<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="ZPlayer" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files\Zoom Player\zplayer.exe</filename>
<args>/F /Q /LockFS /Media /ar:2</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule audiocodec="ac3|dts" player="ZPlayer"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

I tried both 'audiocodec="ac3|dts"' and 'audiochannels="6"', and neither work reliably. For MKV files they seem to work as expected, but AVI files always end up using the internal player.

Any idea why? And just to make sure audiocodec/audiochannels isn't broken, is anyone using it with Dharma and Windows 7?

A debug log might help ...

seems JR is willing to help - just can't mind-read your machine Laugh

Enable debugging in the System menu, then copy your xbmc.log file to http://www.pastebin.com. Post the link you receive here.
