swhitmore 781 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I had this issue where files wouldn't play over the weekend. It seemed like only recent files wouldn't work, but old ones would. I reinstalled and everything was fine. Unfortunately I didn't have time to really investigate further (and since MBT is in the midst of a rebuild, it might not be worth looking into it).

jluce50 118 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Happening here as well. It's now using something called EVR+ renderer for video. Something I haven't heard of before. Does this mean LAV filters has been ditched? edit: sorry it was the trailers playing through Cinema mode that are not playing. Although it would be interested to know about this EVR thing, and what's this "from inside" and from "outside options"? What do I select? EVR or EVR+? What's the difference? I googled EVR but came up with nothing. Yep, for me it was an issue with Advanced Intros that was causing the problem. I had an empty profile for my user intended to disable trailers. This worked in previous versions of MBT, but apparently something changed and it didn't like the empty intros profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blade005 172 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Is there any way to get back to a previous release? Since upgrading to the latest some of my files won't play at all. Typically when MBT updates it does write a back up copy of the previous version System folder named System.OLD in the MB Theater directory (C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-Theater). In the past when I have had an issue with an MBT update, I will just make copies of both the System and System.OLD directories. I will then delete the System directory and rename the System.OLD directory to System. Of course, you will have to be quick when MBT starts up and go to the Settings and cancel any updates it is trying to download. But, you will have a working copy until any issues are resolved. I wish there was an option inside of MBT to toggle ON or OFF updates just for instances like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jluce50 118 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) MBT just auto-updated to 3.0.5421 . Is there a changelog somewhere? Edited November 5, 2014 by jluce50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_slayer 103 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 @@Luke, I haven't really ever put much consideration into MBT but today I was looking at your first post and I saw libretro integration on the MBT roadmap Is anybody actually pursuing that currently, and what is the plan for it? Would it just be a launcher for retroarch (libretro) or a truly integrated experience that would allow you to pause / play / back out of / and back into a playing libretro game in MBT? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xzener 729 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 After launching MBT (up to date), the first video backdrop fails to stop playing after backing out of the details page. Anyone else notice this, or is it just me?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordy 284 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Hey, just tried it out with a couple of tv series. As soon as I selected the show the video backdrop started playing. It kept on playing ir repeating whilst I was inside the show regardles of the page I was viewing. However as soon as I backed out to the show/series listing it stopped. This hapened on each show I went into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swhitmore 781 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Isn't it meant to repeat 3 times or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaefurr 1337 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Mine happen for movies... The first one I enter, the video backdrop starts... If I back out of the movie, its supposed to stop, but doesn't. I've duplicated this numerous times. Happened here as well, I'll enter a movie and it will play, ill back out and keep browsing and it will continue playing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swhitmore 781 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) I just noticed that everything I play in MBT is now being transcoded. Does anyone else see this? I need to do some digging to figure out when it started and why. Edit: Ignore me. I just realised I changed the server password, so the HTPC probably can't access the files directly anymore.

Luke 37099 Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 The dev group has access to the new version. We're not quite ready to make it publicly available and take on all the things that come along with that. But soon 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
