If I hit ctrl+alt+Delete, i can see zoomplayer is not responding. I close zoom player and XBMC comes up again, if i try to play a movie now sometimes it will work, some times i have to repeat the above process again. In zoom player setting if i set it to start in windowed mode everything works fine. Everything aslo works with MPC-HC fullscreen and windowed. I'm using rev 17097 with vista64.
This is my advancedsettings code:
<advancedsettings>
<video>
<defaultplayer>externalplayer</defaultplayer>
</video>
<externalplayer>
<filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\Zoom Player\zplayer.exe</filename>
<args>/fullscreen /shutdown</args>
<forceontop>true</forceontop>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<hidecursor>false</hidecursor>
</externalplayer>
</advancedsettings>
Try starting XBMC with the "XBMC (windowed)" shortcut but set it's resolution (under screen in settings) to match that of your display so it fills the screen. If that doesn't make any difference try setting:
Code:
<hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
Hopefully that's a temporary measure as CapnBry is still working to resolve the Intel/Vsync issue without having to make the XBMC window TOPMOST.
