This is mickey79 from AVS.
I have a non-3D display where I followed your guide on the first page & post #205 to setup Kodi & UHD HDR media playback.
On this system, since there is no need for 3D, I had re-coded my playercorefactory.xml to segregate only two eventualities:
Play all 1080p Videos (MKV, etc) in Kodi's internal player.
Play all 1080p Blu-ray Rips (ISO's, m2ts, etc) in PowerDVD.
This is my file and it works well:
Now I need to setup a second layer to play all 4K UHD media in MPC-BE. So essentially:
Play all 1080p Videos (MKV, etc) in Kodi's internal player.
Play all 1080p Blu-ray Rips (ISO's, m2ts, etc) in PowerDVD.
Play all 4K UHD Videos with keywords "4K" or "HDR" in filename (MKV, ISO's, etc) in MPC-BE
I'm struggling a little with this.
I thought this would work, but it's playing everything in MPC-BE:
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="PowerDVD" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD17\PowerDVD.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}" /fullscreen /close</args>
<hidekodi>false</hidekodi>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
<player name="MPC-BE" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files\MPC-BE\mpcbe.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}" /fullscreen /close</args>
<hidekodi>false</hidekodi>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule filetypes="iso|bdmv|mpls|m2ts" player="PowerDVD"/>
<rule filename="*4K*.*|*HDR*.*" filetypes="mkv|iso|bdmv|mpls|m2ts" player="MPC-BE"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>
Can you suggest a proper solution?
Thanks!!
