I am trying to run a video using an external Vimu Media Player (version 10.40). All my video files are hosted on my NAS server using the nfs protocol.

I'd like to select Vimu Media Player with "Play Using..." in the Context Menu whenever I want to use it. I modified my playercorefactory.xml file and but when I try to play it in KODI, the "Click OK when playback has ended" window pops up.

I can play the video file fine on my network when I navigate to it using vimu player and open it that way, but when I use Kodi and select playback with... -> vimu player -> it "Click OK when playback has ended" .

KODI version:
21.0 Omega Beta 2

Does anyone have or know of a fix for this? Here is my playercorefactory.xml:

Quote:<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="Vimu Media Player" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>net.gtvbox.videoplayer</filename>
<hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">

<rule protocols="smb" player="Vimu Media Player" />
<rule dvdimage="true" player="Vimu Media Player"/>
<rule protocols="rtmp" player="Vimu Media Player"/>
<rule protocols="rtsp" player="Vimu Media Player" />
<rule protocols="sop" player="Vimu Media Player" />
<rule protocols="nfs" player="Vimu Media Player" />
<rule internetstream="true" player="Vimu Media Player" />
<rule video="true" player="Vimu Media Player"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

1. you don't have any args

Code:
<args>"{1}"</args>

see https://kodi.wiki/view/External_players and https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Use_extern...on_Android

2. vimu player app may not be able to play nfs paths "nfs://"
3. vimu app may not have permission to the share see https://kodi.wiki/view/NFS
4. you may need to monitor logcat from adb to see what kodi is starting and what errors the android system is giving see https://developer.android.com/tools/adb and https://developer.android.com/tools/logcat
5. you may need to check if vimu can play something when started with what kodi is doing f.e. am start package/class -d "nfs://server/path/to/file.mkv"
