External Player doesn't work
#1
Hi All,

Having trouble with Kodi 16.1 external player setup trying to get all video to play through Bubbleupnp app. I have edited the playercorefactory.xml file as such;

<playercorefactory>
<players>
<!-- Bubbleupnp definition -->
<player name="Bubbleupnp" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>com.bubblesoft.android.bubbleupnp</filename>
<hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
<playcountminimumtime>120</playcountminimumtime>
</player>

</players>

<rules action="prepend">
<rule protocols="smb" player="Bubbleupnp" />
<rule dvdimage="true" player="Bubbleupnp"/>
<rule protocols="rtmp" player="Bubbleupnp"/>
<rule protocols="rtsp" player="Bubbleupnp" />
<rule protocols="sop" player="Bubbleupnp" />
<rule internetstream="true" player="Bubbleupnp" />-->
<rule video="true" player="Bubbleupnp"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

When I select a video, the screen flashes the video controls briefly then stays on file selection screen. Log file as follows;

I have tried several versions of kodi, several different versions of playercorefactory file and also with BubbleUPnP , but all with same results.

Greatly appreciate anyone who can assist in getting this thing working! Many thanks!
