Hi,

I have added a playercorefactory.xml in userdata and when I select a stream to play I can choose from a variety of players when I select play using.

However, whilst VLC is listed it tries to start playing but just doesn't do anything.

Am I missing anything.

My playercorefactory.xml looks like this:
