Tolerant 72 Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) Playto "Edge" shows spinning dot in center that keeps going around and around and around... its like watching a little bug crawling on my monitor. Using Windows 10 Home w/Edge browser and playing to it from FireFox. I do this so that I can keep it full screen on my second monitor while not messing with my browsing in FireFox. Sadly I no longer have WMC w/external MPC and Emby Theater is so unstable it is not an option. Any idea on how NOT to see this dot (pixel) going around in circles or another alternative? I do see in the server config, that this file is transcoding. Is that why there is a spinning dot? Edited July 31, 2015 by Tolerant
Luke 39653 Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 known issue for now. maybe someone in the custom css section can give you a hack to permanently hide the spinner. you could also try theater again. i think the video player is more stable now.

I tried it last night and it crashed on me with a UI Error and totally and completely hung windows 10. I had to force the PC to power down.
