 You need to change the folder options in Windows to see file extensions. You don't see them by default. I don't think nkv is a valid file extension. Try .flv instead.

If VideoPlayer is playing everything, DSPlayer is really not involved. So it shouldn't be an issue. The movie trailers could be a problem if Internet streams are set to be played by DSPlayer. You would have to try.

Some people have had trouble getting DSPlayer to recognize rules using filenames, so hopefully it works for you.  

Thanks Warner. Did as you recommended and have got it working but not a smooth experience overall in that department. I see a pause buffer screen between the MPAA and the movie itself which doesn't look quite smooth so rather not use it. Is there a way to show just a black screen whilst we move from Audio clips > MPAA > movie?  

 The playercorefactory rules might be slowing things down. There isn't anything you can do about the transition to DSPlayer. It just isn't meant to be used with that add-on. I tried it once a while ago and gave up. It is a good add-on and I've collected all of the required intro videos, but it's not worth dumping DSPlayer just to use it.

I am assuming the experience should be smooth, as well, but maybe the add-on just sucks. Who knows. 

Thanks for your reply Warner. Yeah I thought the exact same thing. I've been playing with it, looks nice, but would never give up DSPlayer for it. Would be nice if they could get it working well together but till that happens, I give up on that add-on.

I have some more q's about DSPlayer as I dwell deeper into it's potential.

1) How do we take screenshots of MadVR within DSPlayer? The default way to press Print Screen doesn't seem to do it. I just get a black screen as the screenshot

2) If screenshot is not possible, is there anything I can do to hide the player bar when pauing a movie so when I take a picture for comparison, all I see is the movie paued with no kodi interface?

Thanks in advance
