[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 520206, member: 76888"] you could try the following save it as playvideo.vbs [code] Set oArgs = WScript.Arguments sFilePath = oArgs(0) Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") iRC = oShell.Run("""" & sFilePath & """") Wscript.Quit iRC [/code] You set playvideo.vbs as the external video player under mediaportal configuration. The script automatically loads the default player associated with the file. then associate the file with the correct player in windows. eg. in windows, you could associate .avi with vlc and .mpg with pdvd.... then if you select .avi in mediaportal it will load vlc, and if you select a .mpg file it will load in pdvd player. This may also work with bluray however i don't have a bluray drive to test.
