Externalplayer.conf

# Externalplayer-plugin example configuration.

# Syntax description: Every player block begins with "{" and end with "}".
# Each block contains several entries with th following syntax:
#   <setting> = <value>;
# Each block must contain at least a MenuEntry and a Command.

# Possible Input Modes: deactivateRemotes, slave, normal (default).
# Possible Output Modes: extern (default), none, audioOnly, audioOnlyBlack.
# See MPlayer example how to set up keys in slave mode.

# dxr3player for DVD playback, LIRC/KBD/RCU remotes are deactivated for VDR.
# So dxr3player has full control over the keyboard and LIRC devices.
{

  Command          = "dxr3player";
  OutputMode       = extern;
  InputMode        = deactivateRemotes; # dxr3player should be configured for LIRC.
}

# MPlayer for DVD playback (dxr3), LIRC/KBD/RCU remotes are NOT deactivated for VDR.
# Input Mode "slave" means that the configured VDR key events are forwarded
# as keyboard events. All vdr keys (except Channel+, Channel-, Menu, Power
# and volume control buttons) can be assigned to a keyboard key to simulate.
