THX-UltraII Wrote:thxz for your help guys! Only still not working. I ve copied the advancedsettings.xml file to C:\Program Files\XBMC\userdata. The file contains the following information now:
<advancedsettings>
<video>
<defaultplayer>externalplayer</defaultplayer>
</video>
<externalplayer>
<filename>C:\Program Files\MPC HomeCinema\mplayerc.exe</filename>
<args>-fs</args>
<forceontop>false</forceontop>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<hidecursor>false</hidecursor>
</externalplayer>
</advancedsettings>
Next I went to the XBMC shotcut on my desktop and richtclicked properties. The target there was "C:\Program Files\XBMC\XBMC.exe" -fs (I had already added -fs because without -fs XBMC would t start running at my pc). So, ive changed the target with -p but then XBMC will not run. I ve tried lots of other variants but in all cases XBMC will not start running. I ve tried:
"C:\Program Files\XBMC\XBMC.exe" -fs -p
"C:\Program Files\XBMC\XBMC.exe" -p -fs
"C:\Program Files\XBMC\XBMC.exe" -p
None of thems works.....
Now what
I just got it working after some playing around. For me it was the <args>-fs</args> setting. Removing that line and it works (mpc does not recognise those parameters). You can set mpc up to automatically start in fullscreen without parameter usage
PS: Thanks to everyone who worked on this feature!! I have a 60hz Samsung 720p HDTV that jitters like hell using the internal player mpc is just so much smoother
