moby-uk Wrote:No, that's a log with islauncher set to true as well which turns hidexbmc back off again as you can't have both; the islauncher flag is an indication that you know the extplayer process will end quickly and playback will continue, this in turn causes XBMC to assume the extplayer is still running (and so limit its fps to use less CPU time) until you dismiss the dialog (which you couldn't do if the XBMC window was hidden).
I know you say it hangs with only hidexbmc set but can you get me a log from that please.

Here is the next try http://pastebin.com/m6b4895
The flashing appears immediately, and when I stop the MPC-HC player XBMC crashes. I hope you find the reason why this happens.
thanks again!

i.e. whilst MPC-HC is running, you say that the XBMC window is actually visible (and competing with MPC-HC to be topmost)? And that's the end of the log at the point you had to kill XBMC?
btwiggles2 Wrote:I have the same exact setup currently. Windows 7 RTM x64 and I'm also using MPC-HC 64 bit. Try moving your playercorefactory.xml file over toUnfortunately this didn't help me out either.
C:\Users\Your Username\AppData\Roaming\XBMC
I mistakenly wrote my xml file in wordpad which added some erroneous info to the front of the file. Stick with notepad.
I'd verify that your filename is also correct, I had a small error in mine that was preventing mine from working.
Lastly, If you look at the log file in the C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\XBMC directory, you might be able to figure out where things are going wrong.

I'd greatly appreciate some help with this if anyone has more advice.

zoing Wrote:That is exactly what happens. It seems they fight wich applications has the higher priority. I can normaly stop the MPC-HC player but then XBMC hangs. I have to kill the XBMC process in the task manager. So the log ends there.
I hope this explanation helps.
patkhoo Wrote:I assume you have double checked Direct X problems, yes? I had one case after I updated video drivers, direct X was messed up.. MPC-HC played the video, but the screen never "returned" (not even to desktop) when stopping the video. then I re-installed Direct X on a whim, and what do you know, everything was back to normal.. Just a thought..

[not saying it'll fix it, but as it doesn't happen here it's a bit of trial-and-error]
