Watch .rar files "My videos" - the easy way! (1 Viewer)

[PUT]

Sweet! Will give this a try tonight. Sounds strange that it doesn't work with Moving Pictures though.

this looks nice, i'll try it when i get home too..

what about TVSeries, does it work?

This works great but it seems to disable skip steps for all videos (avi's at least) not just rar's. I found the same issue with rarmount2. Does anyone know how to fix this? Some times it's just handy to skip back a few seconds rather than rewind and play.
It works for My TVSeries too which uses the file extensions from my videos.

Thanks.

Works like a charm for me, with Moving Pictures and My Tv Shows

Thats the consequence of playing rar files.
Skip steps have to be disabled to get it to play.

This is because of the total time of the movie can not be calculated on start.

I've got no problem with skip steps not working for a rar file, but it also doesn't work for already uncompressed avi's.
If this is a DShow filter is there a way to make it on use the filter for rar files so other files can still skip?
Any ideas? I'd like if possible to have both skip steps working on non rar files and playable rar's (without skip available if it's not possible).

Thanks,

If you play RAR files in BSPlayer you can skip, forwards, backwards, where ever, easy.. they dont calculate the length of the movie, just segments or something
