I tried to search for a plugin or something that will force MediaPortal to ignore remote control actions while playing a movie/video in an external application (like MPC HC) but with no success.
I use MPC Home Cinema for playing all of my videos/movies. I have it set as an external player for MediaPortal. The reason for this is simple: DXVA for H.264 with subtitles.
The problem I'm having is that when I start a movie (MPC HC opens nicely in full screen) and I want to use the play/stop or any other remote control function that works for MediaPortal and MPC HC as well, it is executed in both applications. I want these actions to be executed only by the player (MPC in my case) and not MediaPortal. Is there a way how to achieve this? The only way I found so far is to remap the standard play/pause, etc. individually to ignore the action when the playing condition is met. However, this is a very long process. A single button/checkbox (something like "Ignore remote control commands while playing video in an external player") would be really nice.
Thanx in advance for any advise.
