Media Player alternative plugins?
I have tried playing some mp4 files (from usb disk) with the Media Player plugin provided by the OpenATV 6.2 environment which came with my Zgemma H5 STB.
I noticed that, unlike the player used to playback the H5's own recordings, the Media Player behaves quite badly. Playback is somehow jerky, audio feels somehow rolling and the pressure of any control button on the remote (pause, play, fast ff or fw...) produces weird effects, such as audio vanishing, everlasting fast forward (or rewind), program crashes and so on.
By browsing forums here and there I learned that many users (maybe, who knows, all the users who happen to need the Media Player instead of just using the PVR functions) report issues with that program and the most common advice is to... install a better one; also the seller who sold me the unit said so.
So here I am to ask for some advice in my turn.
Can someone suggest me the name of a good (of maybe the best) media player for OpenATV?
Where can I download it from (I can't connect, at present, my STB to the net, so I have to download from PC and then install via usb key)?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Box 1:Vu+ Zero 4KBox 2:Vu+ Solo SE V2Box 3:Formuer F4-TURBOI can not help but a few months ago I also tested some players. However, I always went back to the embedded media player (EMC - "Enhanced Media Center" in OpenATV). In my opinion, the built-in multimedia player is the best. I tested these players:
enigma2-plugin-extensions-mediaplayer2 ....
enigma2-plugin-extensions-enhancedmoviecenter_4.0git2016 ....
enigma2-plugin-extensions-enhancedmoviecenter_1.0git2017 ....
OpenATV typically uses EMC, which is probably the best player for Enigma. If something does not work correctly, the bug will be in dependent modules or box incompatibility. If one video format does not work, it is a temporary BUG. Or maybe a bug with a particular box.
For Enigma, you'll find a variety of players, but they are all based on EMC based on GStreamer. GStreamer is already in every Enigma. For example, there is still a special development version of EMC 4.x but also a separate development version of EMC 1.x. GStreamer is always used for playback.
The best players should be those using the FFMPEG package rather than the GStreamer framework. FFMPEG is a very powerful tool for processing video formats in Enigma (also for playback). FFMPEG is not a regular part of the Enigma - it must be installed by the user. Then, of course, you must also install the appropriate FFMPEG player. Unfortunately, I do not know which player supports FFMPEG modules.
Unfortunately, the Enigma is primarily designed for DVB-S / T / C / IP streaming, but with weaker support for multimedia videos, although multimedia videos have been working well for the last few years.

The exteplayer3 for ffmpeg will be installed by default in "/usr/bin", useable after configurating serviceapp in the Menu and reboot.mfg tiopedro1958

ThemenstarterWell, you can help indeed, actually. As a matter of fact you did, providing quite useful information about EMC and more.
OpenATV typically uses EMC, which is probably the best player for Enigma. If something does not work correctly, the bug will be in dependent modules or box incompatibility. If one video format does not work, it is a temporary BUG. Or maybe a bug with a particular box.
So I forgot the "Media Player" plugin and tried playing back those files with EMC.
That resulted in remote buttons working as expected, thus solving a big part of the problem.
Still, however, playback is not smooth as it should be (and is, with "inside recorded" files). Images flow in a somehow wheezy way, as if they where processed and displayed a bunch at a time and slightly not fast enough.
Moreover, this does not happen the same way with all mp4 files; perhaps it has something to do with particular resolutions (full HD files, for example, seem to behave better than lower resolution ones) or with some particular codecs. Maybe some settings (there are so many all around this... enigmatic environment!) could be usefully customized, who knows.Geändert von omandar (27.11.2018 um 17:39 Uhr)

Not ECM, but EMC (Enhanced Movie Center).
@tiopedro1958:
Serviceapp + ffmpeg + exteplayer3 I used to troubleshoot MPEG-TS playback of IPTV stream. Finally, I have solved the problem using the standard method (in userbouquets I am no longer using service number 4097 or 5002, but directly number 1). Now I do not use serviceapp. So in the serviceapp plug-in you can switch using ffmpeg instead of gstreamer? That is great. Thanks.
