JMGNYC 10 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Is Emby Theater maximized when you're seeing this? Does it happen when maximized, not maximized, or both? In addition, I've posted build 2.4.1. Please let me know if that helps. Thanks. It only seems to happen when it is maximized. I noticed that when I ALT-TAB it shows that MPC-HC has the focus oddly even though ET is in front of it. Where can I get 2.4.1 to test with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37095 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 as far as the player closing, the only thing i can think of is that if a stop command comes in, we do send a signal to the process to shut down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMR 4 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 I am watching movie and all the sudden the player closes back the ET screen with the play button it happened between 35 and 45 mins the old ET played fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monitor shut off? Screen saver? Machine sleep...? Anything at the system level. Then, if you find something, try changing the timing of it and see if that has an effect.

JMR 4 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 My computer is set to never sleep and no screen saver it is my main computer that runs all the time it does not do this in the old ET so it something in the new one Maybe because i use external player the program thinks nothing is happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37095 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 2.4.2 is headed up and will disable all window syncing during external player playback. Let me know if that helps with the focus issue. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMGNYC 10 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 2.4.2 still has the same problem. Video starts playing, MPC-HC is topmost. About 2 seconds in ET forces itself back on top. I'm on Win7 if that makes any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37095 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 if you manually put the mpc window back on top, does it stay there correctly or does it keep happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMGNYC 10 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 It stays there once I get it back on top at least for a good while. I haven't watched a full movie, mostly TV episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMR 4 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 2.4.2 works for the closing during playing just watched a whole movie thanks for all the hard work and quick response keep up the good woek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMR 4 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Sad to say but 2.4.2 is still closing pdvd 37 min in i have a issue with cyberlink because they used to have a key to keep on top but no longer i guess i will keep using the old ET because this one does not like external players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spon 24 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Hi Luke. I'm having an odd problem where ET is open as a smaller window after playback using MPC-HC. ET will be full screen, I'll play a file using MPC in full screen, when the video ends, MPC closes, but then ET shows in a small window. I have to remote into my machine in order to maximize it. Any ideas? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMGNYC 10 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 I thought I'd report this as it is the first time it has happened. Started a movie and ET immediately pushed to the front. ALT-TAB to bring MPC-HC back to the front as usual. What was new is that after about 30 seconds ET pushed itself back on top again. This is the first time it has done that. ALT-TAB again to get MPC-HC back in front and it then stayed there for the rest of the movie. Upon finishing the movie, none of the sound affects were working in ET any longer. Everything else was fine though that I could see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37095 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 The sound effects is a chromium or electron issue, or possibly lav filters. if any audio from any application on the system bitstreams audio, the electron webview will lose the ability to play audio until it is reloaded. i am guessing chromium is relying on some resource to be free in order to play the sound and after hdmi passthrough is utilized that resource is for whatever reason reported as no longer available.

Ah well. Minor issue in the big scheme of things just mentioned it in case you guys didn't know. Would love to have the z-order thing fixed, or better yet a usable internal player.

Luke 37095 Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 2.4.4 is headed up and it's just going to minimize the app for external players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimitrik 12 Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 I've just tested and now there are no focus problems whatsoever! MPC HC works fine and as expected as an external player. Thanks Luke! Now I can finally test ET as my main client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
