Not via playercorefactory.

Playercorefactory just controls how external players are called from Kodi.

What do you mean by subtitles less transparency in wrapper? Can you point to a thread (or post about in either buglist thread or new thread) detailing the problem?

I've been trying for hours yesterday night to play anything with the Himedia wrapper but nothing works. I'm using a Qnap NAS and NFS to stream. When I use the internal dvdplayer everything works fine. Am i'm missing out on something by not using the Himedia wrapper?

Wrapper is not compatible with NFS shares.

There is a way around this here: http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=813.0

By not using wrapper you are missing out on 7.1 audio support, HiMedia Imprex settings from menu button (although if you play something with MediaCenter app, change settings, then return to Kodi you'll find settings saved for Kodi too), and some performance (Himediaplayer/wrapper is better at high bitrates).

Just figured out by doing a bit of reading here that I have to use SMB. Are they going to fix this issue in the future? Thanks for the quick answer though.

NFS support for wrapper is not going to be added in the short term.

The workaround I link to in the previous post is fairly simple to implement, only needs doing once, and gives good NFS Kodi+wrapper support.
