I am having some problems with this plugin. When I try to play a video, it acts like it is going to open, then nothing plays and the watch flag is immediately applied to the icon of the video I just tried to watch. Sometimes a box will open that says something along the lines of "Opening stream", but whether that box shows or not nothing plays.
I am having this issue on 2 computers. Both running XBMC Dharma Beta 2. One is on XP the other is on Windows 7. I tried installing the 1.9.2 beta on the computer running XP and I am still having the same problem.
Here are the logs from 1.8.1 on the XP machine: http://pastebin.com/3UpWmXCh
Here are the logs from 1.9.2 on the XP machine: http://pastebin.com/Da5JZ62X
I've also tried searching and read this thread back 10 pages, so forgive me if I missed the solution somewhere. I found one other thread with a similar problem, but that person is running xbmc on an xbox. Anyways, thanks for any help.
Hi, did this reply solve your problem?

You are on windows yet it looks like you have some ExternalPlayer being invoked for vlc on unix:
ExternalPlayer Filename: /usr/bin/vlc
Looks good to me!
I have never tried using an external player. I didn't even know it was supported after XBMC moved away from the xbox.
