Kodi 15.2 and VLC
#1
Can someone help me with the playercorefactory.xml and where to put it.
I have a symlink going to Home/git/kodi-playercorefactory/linux directory where there several subdirectories including one for vlc . There is also a combined file.
I placed the file below in .kodi/userdata/

<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="vlc" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>/usr/bin/vlc</filename>
<args>--fullscreen</args>
<hideconsole>true</hideconsole>
<hidecursor>true</hidecursor>
<forceontop>true</forceontop>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule filetypes="avi|mp4|mkv" player="vlc"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

I get this in console with the script above - videos play normally in the kodi player. Context C does not show external players
