RiffTrax Player - Play Riff files a la MST3K (Mystery Science Theater 3000)

[nwfisk]

Any possibility of adding a feature to automatically synch the MP3s from RiffTrax (MST3K) with a DVD?

The RiffTrax guys have started releasing handy RiffTrax files with timing information...

Hey I wanted to know if there was a way to get the rifftplayer from http://www.rifftrax.com/rifftrax-player to work on the xbox. I am planning on buying some of the riff tracks and wanted to be able to put a DVD in my xbox and load up the player and riff file so that I would be able to watch the movies on a TV instead of my monitor.

Or is there a way to get XBMC to use the player installed on my PC over my wireless network.

Any guidance or help would be really appreciated.

Thanks

Wei

Unless they offer an opensource implementation of whatever the "riff" file format is, it probably isn't going to happen. Given that it appears to be an advertising model they're using, it's even less likely.

I believe that the riff files are just renamed MP3 files. Or they may be MP3 files flat out, not renamed at all.

Regardless, how can one play a secondary audio in XBMC on the xbox? Is there any way to do it?

You can use a separate MP3 file as the audio stream with MPlayer instead of the one inside the video container (by using a ".conf" file that is named same as the video files) but I doubt that you can play both at the same time without new code for it.
