I'm an HDR equipped tester. I played with your files all morning. The ones with the source code and the previous ones. I decompiled some also and hope you don't mind. In the end, I made some alterations. I have come to the conclusion playercorefactory refuses to launch exe's unless it's an actual player. As usual the paths are correct and the exe's match the xml. Can't imagine what I could be doing wrong if it indeed works? It can however launch a bat. I added code to my existing playercorefactory and created 2 new bat files. So now I can enable/disable (mpc-hc presets) from the 'play using' menu. It still errors with the 'External player active' but confirming closes the window and the preset changes take place. Same with disabling. So, it's all working within Kodi. I got rid of the CMD confirmation by changing 'pause' to 'exit'. Still no joy with MadVR, only Custom Presenter.
How do I change this value so it reflects -1 in the player: Echo HKCU\Software\MPC-HC\MPC-HC\Settings /v VideoBrightness /t REG_DWORD /d 5 /f
Same for this: REG ADD HKCU\Software\MPC-HC\MPC-HC\Settings /v VideoBrightness /t REG_DWORD /d 5 /f
Changing the 5 to -1 results in 0 looking at the player settings.
Lastly, have you created .bats enabled and disabled for MPC-BE? If I edit what we have from MPC-HC to MPC-BE will it apply? I assume the reg paths are right next to each other for everything?
