SOLVED!

Hi...need some help pls.

was running win 8 (then auto updated to 8.1) and xbmc with potplayer as an external player. Win 8.1 kept f^&*&ing up my pc so reverted to win 8...in doing so have had to resetup xbmc. So now using latest Kodi and can not get external player to function. Pls help.

This is my playfactory code which worked previously:

<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="PotPlayer" type="ExternalPlayer"
<filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\Daum\PotPlayer\PotPlayerMini.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}" /fullscreen /close</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend"></rules>
</playercorefactory>

I have also tried placing the xml file in different locations but to no avail...plus tried changing hidexmbc to hidekodi.

Thanks

Because you haven't defined rules for file types, you can use the c context menu to choose a player.
"C" context menu>play using>choose pot player

Unless you specify file type you will need to use option c

See http://kodi.wiki/view/External_players

I've listed my playercorefactory.xml below as well.

Code:
<playercorefactory>

    <players>

        <player name="ISO_BDMV_Player" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">

            <filename>C:\Users\Streacom\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\PlayISO.bat</filename>

            <args>"{1}"</args>

            <hideKodi>True</hideKodi>

                        <hideconsole>true</hideconsole>

                        <forceontop>false</forceontop>

        </player>

        <player name="Disc_Player" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">

            <filename>C:\Users\Streacom\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\PlayDisc.bat</filename>

            <args>"{1}"</args>

            <hideKodi>True</hideKodi>

                        <hideconsole>true</hideconsole>

                        <forceontop>false</forceontop> 

                </player>

        <player name="Universal_Player" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">

            <filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcSoft\TotalMedia Theatre 6\uMCEPlayer6.exe</filename>

            <args>"{1}"</args>

            <hideKodi>True</hideKodi>

                        <hideconsole>true</hideconsole>

                        <forceontop>false</forceontop>

        </player>

        </players>

        <rules action="prepend">

        <!-- Bluray ISO/BDMV -->

        <rule filetypes="iso|bdmv|mpls" player="ISO_BDMV_Player"/>

        <!-- Multiple files -->

        <rule filetypes="m2ts|ts" player="Universal_Player"/>    

        <rule filename=".*3D.*" player="Universal_Player"/>    

                <!-- Bluray Disc -->

        <rule filetypes="bd|ifo" player="Disc_Player"/>

</rules>

</playercorefactory>

In your case you'd need to add a line something like <rule filetypes="ext" player="ExternalPlayer"> , where "ext" is the extension of the files that you want played by the external player as compared to the internal DSPlayer

k4sh1n · 2015-04-07, 16:25

See here "|" denotes add file extension:

Code:
<rules action="prepend">

   <rule filetypes="mkv|mp4" player="PotPlayer"/>

</rules>

or if you wanted to specify file with name tag: 720p

Code:
<rules action="prepend">

   <rule filetypes="mkv" filename=".*720p.*" player="PotPlayer"/>

</rules>

ok...ive tried the following:
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="PotPlayer" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\Daum\PotPlayer\PotPlayerMini.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}" /fullscreen /close</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule filetypes="mkv|avi|mp4" player="PotPlayer"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

still no luck.....ps just a reminder....this all worked before without expressing any rules

spandex - can't see anything wrong with either of your playercorefactory settings - though you don't need to try them in multiple locations, it should be placed in the C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata. Anywhere else and it either won't read it or if placed in the userdata of the root program folder, will be overwritten on each new installation.

Make sure you check that the path to your external player is correct. If you still aren't able to achieve playback from the external player - submit a debug log, which should show where the breakdown is.

@spandex - 2 things

1. That's not a debug log - you need to turn on debugging - see wiki - http://kodi.wiki/view/Debugging
2. Don't post it in-line (it messes up the forum) - open it in notepad, copy and paste to an online paste site (pastebin or similar), then post the link to it here.

spandex1 · 2015-04-09, 13:24

Hope this is it...sry bout that

According to debug log the playercorefactory.xml doesn't exist - please re-check the path and the file's existence. Also make sure that when you saved the file (in whichever text editor you used), that the file has been saved correctly with the extension .xml and not .txt.xml.

spandex1 · 2015-04-09, 15:49

this is the path and file property

C:\Users\D\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\playercorefactory.xml

**steelman1991** · 2015-04-09, 16:01

Care to through up a screenshot of the location - cheers

As far as the logs indicate the master playercorefactory.xml in the program folder does not exist
Whereas the profile playercorefactory.xml loaded with attribute errors (so a syntax error)

Quote:21:13:55 T:6140 ERROR: Error loading special://profile/playercorefactory.xml, Line 4 (Error reading Attributes.)

Is the file path to the program correct?

Have done a test run with the x64 version of pot player and it runs fine.

Can you try this .xml: win+r: %appdata%\Kodi\userdata\
Install the x64 bit version of Pot player: https://potplayer.daum.net/
Place the master.xml here: win+r: C:\Program Files (x86)\Kodi\system
