[QUOTE="Macfox, post: 134008, member: 17908"] Spoke too soon. Doesn't seem to want to launch the video at all. Path to video is reported as xbmc://<media portal ip>/tvrecording.dvr-ms However, if I share the via smb and then browse to them via the file browser , I can play them. I guess it must be a pathing issue. I'm going to try replacing the line that prefixes the xmbc://<ip>/. in mediaportal.py (line ~ 318) def playMovie(self, r): fname = r.strFileName fnamenew = os.path.split(fname) fnamenew = "smb://MCE/Recordings/My Recordings/" + str(fnamenew[1]) # fnamenew = "xbms://" + mpSettings.IP + "/" + str(fnamenew[1]) p = xbmc.Player() p.play(str(fnamenew)) I'll report back with results.
