Arturito 7 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) I'm having trouble with Emby Theater now that i've configured all my roms, it's ok i can launch them, but after i press play the emulator launch but the emby get always on top and i didnt see the game running, it's running but behind emby, there is a way to turn off the always on top on emby? becouse i've searched and didn't find anything. Also Emby is always receiving input from my xbox one controller even when it's not on top of my emulator, so when im gaming suddently another game pops out, because everything i press on the controller while playing it's also messing with emby in the background. Just a question.. The Emby for UWP, have none of these problems but it doesn't have external players, there is a plan for that or it just doesn't support?

Luke 37057 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Hi @ Is the app full screen or windowed when you launch the external player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturito 7 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 With app you mean Emby?, if so i like it always fullscreen, if i leave it windowed seems that the Always on top is set to off, but even when not launching any external player this always on top is something i would like to turn off, i do a lot of ALT+TAB and this kind of botters me, should be an option to turn it of.. the same for the input, only receive input if the window is active..

Yea the always on top interface layer is annoying. Its only the interface not the video that is always on top, Being able to alt tab without minimizing emby needs a fix sometime.

Luke 37057 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Only when fullscreen it is set to always on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturito 7 Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Ok but the question is, can i set the always on top off? there is something i can do or should i just wait for a fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37057 Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Not at the moment, but the app will minimize when opening external players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturito 7 Posted March 25, 2017 Author Share Posted March 25, 2017 Ok for now i made a script in AutoHotkey that disables the Always on top on emby window, but now there is that another issue, after emby launches the game and auto minimize it self, emby keeps getting input on background from my xbox one controller, so i can't play a game with emby opened otherwise it will launch another games, or start playing movies while i play, if i have to close emby every time i launch a game, there is no point of using emby to launch the games. I think emby should only get input if the window is active, theres no point of getting input on background Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37057 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Thanks for the report. We'll take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blei 5 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 This is still an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37057 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 That's strange because we actually minimize the app when launching an external player. we'll have to look into why that might not be happening. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blei 5 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 When minimized, the issue isn't present. But I like to have it present to navigate around and plan the next thing to watch, or have it on the side when playing a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37057 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 So you're saying it minimizes, and then you bring it back to the forefront manually? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blei 5 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Well, alt tab/manually click it back, yes. But then I alt tab/switch to the video (external video player) or game I was playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37057 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Ok we'll have to go through it but this type of usage hasn't been thoroughly tested. The way it's currently built is that it assumes you're leaving it minimized until the external player closes. We can look at making it more flexible. Thanks.
