External Player - Zoomplayer

Druski · 2007-06-20, 00:43

Howdy,

Does anybody know how to get an external player like zoomplayer to recieve playlist info. I cannot queue more than one movie at a time atm and is basically useless. I have tried using the same parameters that I used with Meedio & PlayMee but no success. I read somewhere on this forum that all you need is this string {queue} , but it hasn't worked for me. Here is an example of the string I was trying to use:

/F /Q /LOCKFS /MOUSEOFF {queue}

I really need to stick with zoomplayer over the internal player because of it filter management system. However if someone could put me in the right direction as how to control directshow filters in MediaPortal I will give that a go. Does MediaPortal accept graphedit files for video playback??? if so how and where should I be putting them. I have tried using Filter Merits but it hasn't offered enough control.

Cheers,

Drew

I use ZP with MP, but do not really have a requirement to play multiple files except for 2 part movies. ZP is configured to play the next file in the directory so that after playing "Movie -1.avi", "Movie -2.avi" is played by ZP without going back to MP.

If you have another need for queuing videos, I am sorry but as mentioned I have not had the need so have never tried queuing from MP.
