So, this is what I've done without success.
Created a playercorefactory with the following...
Code:
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="Movies & TV" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>"explorer.exe shell:appsFolder\Microsoft.ZuneVideo_8wekyb3d8bbwe!Microsoft.ZuneVideo"</filename>
<args>"{1}" /fullscreen /close</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule filetypes="mp4" filename="*microsoft.*" player="Movies & TV"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>
that fails to open Movies & TV
I then tried for <filename> ...
C:\Windows\explorer.exe "shell:appsFolder\Microsoft.ZuneVideo_8wekyb3d8bbwe!Microsoft.ZuneVideo"
of course that failed to open Movies & TV
Mind you...both of those <filename> works in cmd prompt (and I believe
run as well)
for laughs ... I created a batch file
Code:
@echo off
explorer.exe shell:appsFolder\Microsoft.ZuneVideo_8wekyb3d8bbwe!Microsoft.ZuneVideo
exit
and inserted that filename (c:\test.bat) into the <filename> ... it launched Movies & TV ... but of course it wouldn't load the movie.
The error in kodi.log is

Anyway...I'm at lost now....or even if it is possible.
