External Player PVR
#1
I added external player, video playing, but TV not open (URI has the form pvr://programm/tv/... (in log file) ) - MXPlayer does not understand the protocol, so message in Kodi: "external player active click ok when playback has ended"

If there's something wrong with the internal player in Kodi you should open a thread about that or file a bug report. Using external player is the very last resort, and it's not that well supported anymore.

Did you try VLC Media player? VLC media player for example used to work with streaming live tv on Android Fire TV

Question

I have a similar problem. In my opinion it can be solved by creating a rule in which to PVR will use the internal player, and for other - external player. What needs to change in playercorefactory for this?

In PVR usually I watch SD channels, which is enough to show my CPU in Software mode. But for 720/1080p need a hardware decoder that works only with external players.

P.S. sorry for my english, its google translate from russian.

it wont happen. data is fed to player through kodi pvr api, not standard transports. you would have to add kodi pvr addon support in the external player.
