I tried it.....Kodi still doesn't list the Dunes hardware and is operating on its own drivers....which makes it useless on a Dune.

Someone on AVS told me that there is a way to assign the Dune player within Kodi now (supposedly)....I haven't tried it since I use Kodi for audio only on a Vero4K+.....

The recent Dune FW update includes a new change to allow external APP's to call the Internal Player. It is now available as "Dune HD Player" in any Android apps which support external players.
Movie titles are currently supported only for playlist items; for individual files they will be supported in the next firmware.

If KODI as-is can make use of that?

Hi! can you please share with us the playcorefactory.xml that you have used?
I have tried, but not sure what the name of the internal player in Dune, and the path that I should use.
Thanks and regards!

At the moment with the internal Dune player, it is not capable of playing the Full Blurays in folders or the .ISO formats
Let's hope the matter progresses.
