Testing MrMC 3.4.1

[cosmoxl]

menu press to go back -> jump out to tvOS home has been reproduced.

You guys are quick on the back presses What's happening is there is a small window of time when going back where there is no core window mapped to a UIView. The gestureRecognizer for button presses is never called, tvOS handles the UIPressTypeMenu and pop goes the weasel.

There may be more causes?? I've had problems with menu closing the whole app while playing live tv, via the add-ons, for some time now. It doesn't happen often, but it's not a new thing. I guess I've never brought it up because I can't mess with the log at that time and then I forget.

Are you talking pre-new focus engine changes ? Yes, there can be other causes. There needs to be a gestureRecognizer to qualify UIPressTypeMenu. If somehow it slips directly to tvOS, without us intercepting it, then out we go.

I tried the last build yesterday...
i'm using the black nova skin, and i can't "enter" in any section... i moved the focus to movies or tvshows or settigns, hit the ok button in my magic remote or the touch surface in the siri remote, but nothing happens...

I switched back to previous build cause my wife threated to kill me if she couldn't see the tv

BTW, if we want to use another remote, like my magic lg, it will be supported in this new build?

I don't have that problem at all with my Apple TV remote or my Harmony

My LG remote works alright when I have CEC enabled. Almost never use it because CEC has some other issues for me, but it works. If you use the pointer that won't work on anything except the TV settings and TV apps.

Just tried black nova skin, seemed fine here. Would need to see debuglog to figure out what is going on with your setup.

Googling about for magic lg and AppleTV says that it uses either IR or CEC (via HDTV) to control the AppleTV4/4K. Both of these should be fine with the new focus engine handling.

sorry, what do you mean by "pre-new focus engine changes"? Is that this 3.4.1 or what came out a few months ago? It doesn't actaully matter I guess. If memory serves me correctly I've seen the problem of menu button backing out of the app completely once in a blue moon since perhaps the very beginning.

I already use the lg remote with the atv and mrmc without issues, just to know if the *new siri mode* will break something.

I will try again this build when i have a moment, and capture the log if the problem persists...

Anybody working on a fix for the IP remote issue?

see if above mentioned Siri changes have fixed it for you, if not lets see the new debuglog please as this has now been completely redone.

the issue still persists. It is somehow worse when browsing the menus. Previously, a click on Enter/Select was 100% reliable. Now it's less. However, when watching a movie, the Enter/Select (OK button whatever) does not bring up the menu. This is what the log file says when watching a movie:


Anything else I can do? Shall I record a video?

hey,

I have made some more changes but to be sure, is there a way for your IP remote setup to send a longer signal?

https://github.com/MrMC/mrmc/commit/9f7 ... ed8fddc759

this fixed it for you last time, and testing with my IP remote setup I could reproduce it from time to time, so I have gone down to

Code: Select all

selectRecognizer.minimumPressDuration = 0.00001;

lets see if next testflight fixes it for you...
