kwilcox 78 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 It hasn't been approved yet. LG QA is reviewing now. I'm hopeful they will approve it soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwilcox 78 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 (edited) hmmm.... its the act of clicking on an item in a view that doesn't update the details view correctly. However if you use a classic remote, tabbing over to the item does. Probably why I never noticed it since I use a classic (Logitech harmony ultimate) remote on my TV. Just hiding it in detail view seems to be the best idea. Fixed. Thx! Edited September 27, 2016 by kwilcox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwilcox 78 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 (edited) it all depends on the LG QA team. They actually might reject me because my supporting documents haven't been refreshed with recently upgraded versions. Kind of like the "TPS Report" banter for those of you who are fans of "Office Space". The UX document is a particular PITA to do since you need screenshots of every aspect of your application with captions showing what each function does. The new UX document simply changes the format of the data that I need to input so I didn't update it. Because of this, I may well get "back to spawn" from LG tonight...

kwilcox 78 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) Resume timers expire in emby so the "Continue Watching" selections will age off after a few days if not played. However, the percentage played during the last viewing is always shown. The detail item view will always have a resume button for any partially played item.

ZaLiTHkA 0 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 @@kwilcox, I remember seeing this thread ages back while Simon was still working on "Playz for Emby" (I think it only had 4 or 5 pages at that point), so I've only just seen all the posts involving "ScreenPlay" today.. It looks amazing so far, you've got a real eye for nice UI design! Pity about all the back-and-forth with LG's QA procedures though. I would love to help out with app testing (LG 42LB652T), possibly even helping out with the development side too, but I haven't found any mention of the source repository in this thread... Searching GitHub for "screenplay" returns a bunch of unrelated repos. Did I miss something here, or is this perhaps being done in a private repository?

There's quite a timeout delay if screenplay can't find the server for any reason... minutes. Maybe clicking on an old icon location just passed the time until the timeout actually kicked in? After a delay of 2 to three minutes, it should display a red "Server Not found" error message then send you to the Add Server page. I'll test this out myself. Edit: Tested it and the red server not found error message is displayed but it doesn't go to the server page. Working to fix it... Edit2: Fixed. will add to tonight's push I'm reproducing the double character issue with a browser too, so problem found & fixed: I'll push an update tonight. if you can't wait for that, here's the code change in server.js: dom.on("#serverUrl", "keydown", function(event) { switch(event.which) { case keys.KEY_OK: enterPress(event); break; /* case keys.KEY_SPACE: spacePress(event); break; case keys.KEY_BACKSPACE: deletePress(event); break; default: keyPress(event.key); break; */ } }); Edited September 29, 2016 by kwilcox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woozle 2 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 OK, so I finally couldn't stand waiting any longer and have installed it :-) A couple of points: 1. you seem to have assumed that people are all using passwords :-) If you're not, it's a bit annoying having to move down to the password box and click enter. Most other Emby apps I've used just allow me to click on the user icon and I'm in. It's made worse because to action the password box you have to bring up the on-screen keyboard, then navigate over to the enter key... 2. I can't get it to stop transcoding, and my NAS just isn't up to the job. I never use transcoding, and I really do wish I could just turn it off at the back-end completely. I've upped the bitrates in the app settings to way above what I ever use. The videos are standard MKV, and the TV's capable of playing them natively by USB, DNLA, etc. Obviously I'm more concerned about the second one than the first one, as it makes it sadly unusable for me :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woozle 2 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Also, resume didn't work for me when just trying it. It started at the start again. But perhaps that's because of the transcoding? The resume button isn't what I'd expect to be a resume button by the way. Though just to be REALLY helpful, I can't think what a resume button MIGHT look like. "RESUME"? :-) That's my best suggestion, sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woozle 2 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Also, I'm missing the "next up" functionality - is that something I've done, or just NYI? Is there a better way to capture feedback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
