darkassassin07 423 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) A couple of times now I have have started an episode of a series via 'next up' on my home screen, and when that episode finishes the app returns to the home screen (with screen locked in landscape while app is active), but begins playing the next episode. The videos sound plays in the background, the controls in the tray (android dropdown menu from top) work to play/pause the sound, as well as the dashboard of the server shows the device streaming the next epp. The only way to stop that stream and play something else or actually watch that video is to close the app (removing it from recent apps) and re-open. I have only had it happen twice, both times it was the first thing I played after opening the app, and both times from 'next up' Edit: I just had it happen with the next episode i tried to play after that so it doesnt seem to be dependent on the first piece of media you play or if the app was open/not. It also seems I can start a stream as normal to close/reset the background stream. Edit #2: 6 of the 7 episodes I have watched tonight had this issue :/ Android log: 20cd3976-f1fc-4870-aa4a-2f714b9fc481.log Edited August 21, 2017 by darkassassin07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37068 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 So you're saying it fails to play that next episode, what happens if you go and play that next episode manually by itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37068 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 have you solved this issue yet? I have the same problem but haven''t figured it out yet. I am asking questions trying to get to the bottom of it. Can you please describe your exact issue in your own words? thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkassassin07 423 Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) Once an episode finishes playing and emby goes to load the next episode, the app returns to the home screen instead of playing the video, however the sound of that video begins to play in the background. The tray controls in androids dropdown menu remain and continue to function (to play, pause, and ff/rw the sound) and the dashboard of the server shows that device streaming the next episode as normal. Edit: clicking on the tray controls to bring up the app just returns you to whatever you were looking at befor you switched apps While that is playing in the background, if I browse my libraries and start a new stream (either something new, or the 'next epp' that is currently playing in the background) the background stream stops and the one i selected starts as normal. This also locks the app into landscape view until you restart the app or start then stop a new stream (to bring up the media player and exit it again) Edited August 23, 2017 by darkassassin07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37068 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Thanks, I will do some testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkassassin07 423 Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 I just had it happen when I pressed the next button in the player controls (the one to the right of fast forward) so it doesn't seem limited to the automatic play next feature if that helps at all.

Luke 37068 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Interesting, thanks for the feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkassassin07 423 Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 (edited) This no longer plays the videos sound in the background, however when/if it does take you to the home screen instead of the next video the screen rotation is locked in landscape. Edit: I stand corrected, I just had this issue as it originally was (ie sound in background). The sound doesn't seem to play every time.
