Is there any way to launch a movie/music/any file within MP via a command line switch?
I saw the command line options for MP itself were very limited, so just wondering if there was a plugin available to extend this? I searched and couldn't find anything.

I am writing a small app that handles communication with other automation systems, and need to force MP to play a file using its default playback settings depending on the file to be launched. So if I was to tell MP to play a video file, it would use the built in video playback.

I was hoping for something as simple as: mediaportal.exe "filename\goes\here"

Thanks
