I have tried several iterations of trying to get an external player to work with a Dune HD Player but have been unsuccessful.
Here is my playercoryfactory.xml:
Here is my advancedsettings.xml which defaults to my external player for every video type.
Whenever I try to execute the script (which simply prints the args into a log file) it fails with "NOTICE: ExecuteAppLinux: Failure: -1" and doesn't print anything to the logs.
I am running
Mac OS X Lion (10.7.5)
Frodo RC3
Is there anyone successfully using external players on Macs? Or is there something I am missing?
I have changed the permissions on the files to 777 and ownership to group admin just as a safe measure.
I have even tried placing the files in the XBMC.app package to try to see if it was a permission with the location of the files, and still a no go.
Here is my playercoryfactory.xml:
Code:
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="Dune" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>/Users/dlord/Dropbox/scripts/dunexbmc.py</filename>
<args>"{1}"</args>
<hideconsole>true</hideconsole>
<islauncher>true</islauncher>
</player>
</players>
</playercorefactory>
Here is my advancedsettings.xml which defaults to my external player for every video type.
Code:
<advancedsettings>
<video>
<defaultplayer>Dune</defaultplayer>
</video>
<loglevel hide="false">0</loglevel>
</advancedsettings>
