Testing MrMC 3.4.1

[davilla]

Hi. The files do have chapters available and work as expected on my Shield and Fire TV versions of MrMc. It is not working on my Apple TV (4th Gen) only after updating on testflight to 3.5. It worked fine on the previous version after you implemented chapter skip when available. I'm not sure why I'm the only person seeing this but I'm happy to provide logs, etc. Just let me know. Thanks!

Any chance we can get this video content for testing ? The only way a chapter seek would be disables is a) the media does not have chapters (which it does), b) the extension is disabled in setting->system->input or if falls under one of the below.

Code: Select all

- (bool)hasPlayerProgressScrubbing
{
  if (m_enableRemoteExpertMode)
    return false;

  CGUIWindow *focusWindow = CFocusEngineHandler::GetInstance().GetFocusWindow();
  if (focusWindow && focusWindow->GetID() != WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_VIDEO)
    return false;

  if (g_application.m_pPlayer->IsPlayingVideo() && !g_application.m_pPlayer->CanSeek())
    return false;

  CFileItem &fileItem = g_application.CurrentFileItem();
  if (URIUtils::IsLiveTV(fileItem.GetPath())
  ||  URIUtils::IsBluray(fileItem.GetPath())
  ||  fileItem.IsPVR()
  ||  fileItem.IsBDFile()
  ||  fileItem.IsDVD()
  ||  fileItem.IsDiscImage()
  ||  fileItem.IsDVDFile(false, true)
  ||  fileItem.IsDiscStub()
  ||  fileItem.IsPlayList())
    return false;

  NSString *itemExt = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:URIUtils::GetExtension(fileItem.GetPath()).c_str()];
  if ([m_disableOSDExtensions containsObject:itemExt])
    return false;

  return true;
}

You can....but to be clear, chapter skip doesn't work for anything I have with chapters. I originally thought it might be something odd with the chapter markers in PlayOn recordings so I tried several of my DVD and BD rips. None of them work. I'm pretty sure it must be something unique with my setup since no one else has this issue...even though I'm not sure what it is since I don't have anything customized. But I'm happy to put something on dropbox if you'd like...

To add to my previous post, I don't have any extensions disabled. I don't know exactly what the WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_VIDEO or CanSeek() condition is but my files shouldn't meet any of the other criteria for a false boolean. Also, another thing to be clear about: Scrubbing is working just fine. I just can't skip chapters...in both regular mode or "Siri Expert Mode".

Are you always playing mp4 via plex client ? Direct, not transcoding ?

Also, to be clear, it's a click up/down, not tap when playing. And simple click, not click hold.

Code: Select all

I just tested mine:

Video with chapters:
Apple TV remote click the top = Chapter jump forward
Apple TV remote click the bottom = Chapter jump backward
IR Remote (Harmony) click up button = Chapter jump forward
IR Remote (Harmony) click down button = Chapter jump backward

Video without chapters:
Apple TV remote click the top = nothing happens
Apple TV remote click the bottom = nothing happens
IR Remote (Harmony) click up button = jump forward 10 minutes
IR Remote (Harmony) click down button = jump backward 10 minutes

I've tried mp4's and mkv's via plex client (Direct) and also directly through the file structure. I did try turning on transcoding just to see if that worked but it didn't recognize the chapters (bottom left corner didn't show any chapters) when playing files with chapters.

Also, to be clear, it's a click up/down, not tap when playing. And simple click, not click hold.

Yes, I was referring to clicks up/down, not taps...but I've tried all those combinations.

This is how mine works:

Video with chapters:
Apple TV remote click the top = jump forward 10 minutes
Apple TV remote click the bottom = jump backwards 10 minutes
IR Remote (Harmony) click up button = jump forward 10 minutes
IR Remote (Harmony) click down button = jump backwards 10 minutes

Video without chapters:
Apple TV remote click the top = nothing happens
Apple TV remote click the bottom = nothing happens
IR Remote (Harmony) click up button = jump forward 10 minutes
IR Remote (Harmony) click down button = jump backward 10 minutes

did you alter customcontroller.SiriRemote.xml ?

I did not. I did do "Reload Keymaps" back to default just in case but it didn't make any difference. The only thing I have changed in terms of skipping is I changed the "skip steps" (left/right click) from the default of -10, 30. and enabled all the steps like it used to be. I really didn't see how that would have affected it but I've since reverted back just in case and the problem persists.

Re: list wrapping... was the always the case? When I browse sources, it doesn't wrap like it does when I browse my library. When I scroll up at the top of the list, it doesn't wrap down to the bottom.
