[QUOTE="wjw, post: 1288106, member: 79284"] Gentlemen, Thank you for your help and comments. It turns out that putting the required parameters into MultiShortCut as arguments to pass to VLC works perfectly! So now I have (with one minor issue left to solve) exactly what I wanted to achieve and I now have access to the full range of streaming services available on the FireTV stick from within MP1 and fully controlled by the FireTV controller once VLC has been started. The minor issue is only to work out how to close VLC and return to MP, but I can't sort this until I set this all up on my main HTPC - which is the only one with a remote. All my testing has been done with a keyboard which is not really a viable solution for real life usage. A question for Doskabouter if I may - any idea when you might be able to deliver a working version of the OnLineVideos function to access Amazon Prime? I ask because although my solution will now work I would still prefer to have the ability completely contained within MP as my way requires 2 more devices and cables installed in the lounge behind the TV and HTPC - and there's already too much stuff there!
