Is there a way to use the event trigger for when a video is started? I would like to build a plugin that will dim my lights when a video is started.

You are looking for an Action, not an event. In your plug-in override the OnAction method and listen for the Action.ActionType.ACTION_MUSIC_PLAY action. Don't be misled by the name, it is called ACTION_PLAY_MUSIC but it is triggered for any sort of playback. Maybe a relic from the old days? I dunno.
You can see the implementation in Moving Pictures here. Your's will probably need to be a little different because I assume you're doing a process plug-in rather than a window plug-in. Never messed with the process stuff so maybe some method names are a little different, but generally that is what you want to do.
Good luck. ^^

Last weekend, I uninstalled the entire mediaportal, the TV server, the Windows patches, and anything else that might be interfering. I made a backup of the plugin databases so I could restore them after the installation. Now everything works. I'm not exactly sure what was causing the problem, but now all the videos play perfectly again.

Well, all that remains is to find someone who will add this render if it is a render.

i love how subtitles are implemented in the MP2 videoplayer, this is just perfect. 1080p playback is also very good. But video playback in MP2 is buggy when playing 4k material. Therefore: PLEASE add an option for an external video player! I'd LOVE to have VLC back as videoplayer, like in MP1! This works perfectly. You will make a...
