Summary:
In Mediaportal, the option to use external player is kinda minimalist.
In XBMC, there is a nice feature using an xml file called playercorefactory.xml who allow to use internal or multiples external players depending of a range of options & rules set by the users.
Area:
Configuration i think. I'm not sure.

For exemple :
- Use MPC-HD player with all Madvr stuff for SD content
- Use an alternative player or config for x264 10 bit content
- Use internal player for files in the "Internal" Folder
And on my computer i do a symbolic link to duplicate data on my "Internal" folder in order to allow me to choose when i'm using xbmc for each video, if i want to play them with internal or external.
(I would love this option -choose to use internal or external player- direclty in mediaportal too but it's probably too much work)
The xml file looks like this :
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="MPC-HC" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files\MPC-HC\mplayerc.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}" /fullscreen /close</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule filetypes="mkv" filename=".*720p.*" player="MPC-HC"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>
In my case, i prefer using an external player for the SD content, using Madvr and stuff.
For HD content, internal is fine.
I need some special config/player for x264 Hi-10p videos.
And finaly, if my girlfriend wants to use mediaportal, i prefer that's all content she play is with the internal player (easier to use).
PS : Sorry, for my bad english.
