Thanks Ed. Yes, I've already configured DSPlayer to use directshow for http/https (without using DVDPlayer). However, I think for Win8.x/Win10, DSPlayer isn't able to handle this. It's all boils down to the error in my Kodi log:

Kodi Condition/Error that DSPlayer can't handle[ automatically

Code:

FATAL: CFGFilterFile::Create CoCreateInstance failed!

The only way I can get all my video addons to work (Youtube, and Amazon Prime Video) is the enable, "Use System Filters (DirectShow Merits).

EDIT: And.. now I know exactly what filters are used when "Use System Filters" is enabled (I used GraphStudio + Connect to Remote Graph). No surprise... "File Source (URL) + LAV Splitter + LAV Video + LAV Audio + MadVR + Default DirectShow Audio Render"; which is EXACTLY what I had specified in mediasconfig.xml + filtersconfig.xml.

So, I can finally prove there's a problem with DSPlayer (at least under Windows 8.1) when trying to do a simple HTTP/HTTPS playback filtergraph.

Code:

FATAL: CFGFilterFile::Create CoCreateInstance failed!

is the only log error captured unfortunately.


@aracnoz can you please try to reproduce this using the Youtube addon for Kodi using the Isengard beta 2 DSPlayer version of Kodi?

Not sure what condition causes DSPlayer try to start the unusual "CoCreateInstance"; and, DSPlayer doesn't know how to handle it at that point... For youtube videos, it tries to use cyberlinkvideocodec. (poor attempt from DSPlayer to handle CoCreateInstance), For Amazon Prime videos, DSPlayer tries to insert another filter I don't have,

Code:

11:04:29 T:4028   ERROR: CFGLoader::InsertFilter Failed to create filter "cyberlinkvideodec"
11:04:29 T:4028   ERROR: CFGManager::RenderFileXbmc Failed to load filters rules
11:04:29 T:4028   ERROR: CDSPlayer::Process - Failed creating DS Graph

mediasconfig.xml

Code:

....
        <rule name="Remote URLs" filetypes=".*" protocols="http|https" url="true">
            <source filter="file_source_(url)" />
            <splitter filter="lavsplitter" />
            <video filter="lavvideodec" />
            <audio filter="lavaudiodec" />
        </rule>
    </rules>

playercorefactory.xml is pretty much empty...

Code:

<playercorefactory>
   <rules action="prepend">
     <rule protocols="daap" player="DVDPlayer"/>
   </rules>
</playercorefactory>

On I run Kodi with administrator priviledges (and UAC slider turned all the way down in Win8.1). I don't have any real-time antivirus running (Windows Defender is completely disabled during testing).

I just installed the Amazon Prime Video + PrimeProxy addon. Has anyone tried to get DSPlayer to handle video addons like Amazon Video (which works great BTW).
