Good evening

It 's the first time I write in this forum
It is also the first time I use XBMC

I would ask if you can kindly through mends the main
launch external programs such as MPC-HC and more.

Thanks

Well, it depends what you want to do.

If you are trying to launch a program like firefox or emulators, search for "Advanced Launcher" plugin.

If you want to use a media player like mpc-hc, you need a "playercorefactory.xml" file that will make xbmc launch the selected media in an external player.

If you have trouble finding the info you need by searching those terms, come back and ask.

search for "Advanced Launcher" plugin.

Or the "executor" add-on. I am not sure about the difference but I have verified it with firefox.

Thank you for the information.

I followed these instructions
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW...a_playback

By changing the script to the latest version of MPC-HC

Code:

<playercorefactory>
<players>
   <player name="MPC-HC" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
     <filename>C:\Program Files\Media Player Classic - Home Cinema\mpc-hc.exe</filename>
     <args>"{1}" /fullscreen /close</args>
     <hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
     <hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
     <warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
   </player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
   <rule filetypes="mkv" filename=".*1080p.*" player="MPC-HC"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

I then saved the script named playercorefactory.xml
in root C:\Program Files\XBMC\system

now I find the plugin Advanced Launcher
But where is it? :confused2:

Thanks
