Android TV - hangs when restarting

Hi,

I have been playing with my nexus player.

I go into the emby app, pull up a live channel and start it, no problems.

 

When I switch over to a different app then go back to emby it starts at the channel I was on.. I hit the play button and it hangs and will not start.

I have to push back a few times to get back to the main channel screen (whats on now) then select the channel then it launches.

 

Anyone else have this issue?

 

thanks in advance - haeffnkr

Just now I tried it again.

The app would not launch at all... I had to reboot the nexus player to get emby to start.

I had no issues starting other apps.

 

After the reboot

I launched emby selected the channel... it launched in 2 seconds... I went to nextflix, came back to emby and tried to restart the channel I was on, as it defaults to that screen first thing... I just get the spinning circle... it will not start after 30 seconds, I bailed and hit the back button until I got the the main channel/what on now... and selected a channel. It launched and played as normal.

 

thanks haeffnkr

I went to nextflix, 

 

I assume you are doing that by hitting the "Home" button?  You do this while the channel is actually playing back?

Yes home/stop button.  Emby not playing in the background, launch different app, come back to emby will not start live channel unless I go to main menu again.

 

If I hit the home button on my phone launch an app, go back to emby it will immediately launch the channel again.

(but sometimes if I hit the back button cause I have a bad connection it  completely hangs and the o/s has to stop it)

Okay, I'll have a look at that scenario.  In the meantime, try backing out of the channel before hitting "home".

I was not able to cause a hang of the program in any of the scenarios I tried.  I went home while playing something and it stopped and when I came back, sometimes I was still on the playback screen but just hitting back again took me right back out.

 

I may need more explicit steps of exactly what you are doing to reproduce.

When you come back to the playback screen and hit play it will not play.

I just want to restart the last channel it was on... channel will not start.

 

If you go back in and hit back then select a channel it will play.

Until we're able to address it in the app:
