    Hi

    I love moving pictures, very east to use. Most of my movies play fine using the internal player. However there are a few movies that don't play well using the internal player. It would be great if there was a context menu item to play the movie in an external player, with the command line parameters to the external player setup within the moving pictures configuration.

    Issue 512 - moving-pictures - External player via context menu - Project Hosting on Google Code

    PS - I know that mediaportal can use external player for videos by default if enabled in MP Config. What I am asking is slightly different.

    Honestly I think you are asking for a feature request to work around an issue with your system configuration. If you can't play some media files you probably do not have your codecs configured properly. Additionally I think this would just clutter up the UI or at least the config UI with needless options for most people who have their system setup properly. Sorry, but I don't think we will be taking action on this...
