Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows
(2015-05-03, 00:48)Warner306 Wrote: I have tested DSPlayer with streaming content from video addons. I have stopped short of reconfiguring the provided DSPlayer Starter Kit because DSPlayer is not very reliable at playing this content.

With some addons, DSPlayer is very capable of playing back Internet video. However, I have encountered a few issues with several addons:

- Some videos will not load with DSPlayer despite being the correct protocol. They are played by DVDPlayer instead.
- Several videos freeze or crash when seeking (pressing up).
- Some videos freeze on load, locking-up the system.

For those willing to give this a try, I provided some instruction on how to get this working in the set-up guide in Other Resources. You will need to update your copy of mediasconfig.xml as the previous version contains a rule that causes DSPlayer to ignore the new rule for supported protocols.

I made a post the other day suggesting that certain videos that should be being played by DSPlayer are instead being played by DVDPlayer in PleXBMC and couldn't understand why. Do you think this is related? I've not yet worked out a pattern why some are not being played in DSPlayer through Plex when the same videos are fine when loaded directly into Kodi.

For some reason when accessing videos through PleXMBC, only some play in DSPlayer. The others all play in the usual DVDPlayer. When I load the same video library directly in Kodi, everything is being picked up by DSPlayer and plays accordingly. Does anyone have any inklings what might be causing this?
