K20ItachiUCHIHA 15 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Not sure if this is the right spot where to request this. .. Nevertheless can we please add the feature for embyserver. Pretty much ro setup a pause timeout limit . so if a user put a video/movie on pause for more than xyz timeout limit would kick them back to the video/movie home page...

earthtorob 5 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 (edited) People tend to leave the pause on instead of stopping the video.

It also prevents the screen saver from turning on. I used to think that people just had a hard time stopping a video, until one user left a video on pause with the Tv turned on for over 4 days. That is not typical though. I think what is happening is that the users are starting a Tv series and playing a few episodes and then pausing to continue watching the next day or something.

earthtorob 5 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Oh? Yes, they are using DLNA. Kodi on a Raspberry Pi to be specific. So if thats the case then creating a pause time out be a bit more involved. Wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37062 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 There would be nothing we could do client-side. we could possibly just pull the stream server-side but that would probably result in an error message on screen and there would be nothing we could do about that.

earthtorob 5 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Yeah......fortunately I found a kodi addon that allows a custom command to be ran if playback exceeds a certain time limit. If other users are interested in this sort of thing it can be found in Kodi Addons > Services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
