Hi. I always have been using MPC-HC as my default external player. I configured this a long time ago in Theater v3.0.5859.23399. I have been updating the server since till version 3.5.3.0. with MPC-HC as my default player. When I enter the settings for the external player, still having 3.5.3.0 as my server version, I get a 'There was an error processing the request' screen but when I click 'OK' I can review my settings. When I play a movie MPC-HC starts fine and plays well. Recently I updated to server version 4.xx. I reviewed my external player settings, still getting 'There was an error processing the request' screen. The settings are like they were and should be being MPC-HC as my default player. But, when I start a movie the internal player is starting totally neglecting my settings to start the MPC-HC external player. When I revert to server 3.5.3.0 movie playback will be done with MPC-HC. I also did a compleet fresh install of the latest server version with the same result. To my believe something in the latest server version 4.xx totally overrules playback to my external player only using the internal player. Is there a possibility to fix this flaw in the server software ?
