The remote control is _almost_ complete. The CanSeek is false... :"(

 

Missing is the SeekTo command. The roku allows adjusting seek position unless length = invalid or <=0. The old app supports this too.

Okay, Found another one... well, two actually.. heh

 

The NextTrack and PreviousTrack playstate commands seem to blackscreen the app. These should work for both audio and video depending on what is playing. What happens with video is you get an initial spinner. Seconds later that disappears and blackscreen. There is no way to recover after this, you have to exit the app.

 

I just implemented this in blueneon is why I mention it. I made it so if you PreviousTrack from the first queued video it restarts it. If you NextTrack from the last queued video it does nothing.

You said "two" but I only saw the description of hitting "previous" while video was playing.  Was there a second situation?

I think I need to outline the steps to reproduce. Maybe the use of "remote control" is throwing you..heh

 

 

1) Use the web client, choose to cast to the roku SG app, use the little cast icon.

 

2) Now find a series and hit shuffle. The server passes the app a play queue. The video starts to play on the roku.

 

3) Open the remote control interface of the web client, by clicking the remote control icon from the now playing bar of the web client.

 

4) Choose the NextTrack button ( >| ) and it will bring up a spinner like the next video will play. The spinner vanishes and left on blackscreen. No video ever plays.

 

5) Choose the PreviousTrack button ( |< ) will do the same thing as #4

Okay, tested this, and works. Use previous from first, restarts it.. perfect

 

There is no way to tell where you are in the play queue though. Are there 17 items next, and Ive watched 5? Maybe you were thinking of how best to do this still?
