Microsoft DVR-MS video container support request

bah! how many xbmc-users here own a mce pc?, answer; not many (btw, those where retorical questions so please do not answer), eveyone think 'their' requests are most important :p

please read this entire thread from the beginning and realize that ffmpeg/mplayer cvs'es gets updated every day, (and they are working on dvr-ms), we just don't have the time nor the will to port every single update to own own xbmc cvs every day, what we instead try to do is update/port their whole code when mplayer release a point release (like 1.0-pre5 and 1.0-pre6), so if you want to have the very latest latest updates from ffmpeg/mplayer cvs'es in xbmc today (or any day) then you need to lean how to port the updated code over to xbmc source code and then compile it yourself, ...or you just have to have patience and wait for the next mplayer point release (1.0-pre7?) and then wait for the official xbmc devs to port it to xbmc cvs. ps! if you cannot code but still like to help, what you can do is test very latest ffmpeg and mplayer) on your windows pc then submit proper bug-reports and problem-samples to their developers, (ffmpeg/mplayer that is, and not team-xbmc as we are not codec developers).

add "|.dvr-ms" to the end of <videoextensions> in xboxmediacenter.xml.

added this and ohhhhhhh my, the video is now present but when i tried to play it, xbmc crashed harder than a 10 ton lorry after the brakes had become faulty while doing 90mph on the motorway in snowy conditions!

mplayer appears to support dvr-ms... does this mean the the latest build of xbmc will as well?

from the mplayer page:
"dvr-ms support in asf demuxer"

i haven't uploaded the new 3/5 build to the box yet, so maybe it works now, but if not, add me to the list of people who really want this feature implemented.
