thelostjuice 1 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) I'm having this issue as well (for the last month or two). It's very inconsistent. If I were to guess, I'd say one out of every 20 times times I start playback, 1-2 minutes in it will randomly start over at the beginning. Don't have any logs (can try to grab next time it happens).

Spotta 6 Posted December 14, 2018 Author Share Posted December 14, 2018 I'll to do a little more extensive testing, if I get enough time. I should probably use the same mpv build that you are, too. I may grab theater from Git and run it as a portable with none of my tweaks. I'll be honest, this is a minor inconvenience compared to not being able to watch in-progress recordings while recording and even when they are finished not until up to the next library scan which happens every 12 hours.

Do you have real time monitoring, enabled? My recordings show up straight away. Having said that, I made a library for my tv recordings which monitors the folder where the server records them.

Spotta 6 Posted December 15, 2018 Author Share Posted December 15, 2018 Same, and real time monitoring is on, however I'll keep the info to my other thread. 480 .mkv's doing the same Theater-mpv-log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathsquirrel 722 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 It looks like I'm getting the same thing on my xbox copy of ET as well. Need anything tested there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daedalus 420 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) just stumbled over another 2 minutes thing if you hit "back" to exit on the spinning circle while auto advancing to the next episode, ET jumps back to the menu, all good so far, but then, magically after exactly 2 minutes, it starts the episode it was trying to play previously there surely must be some 2 minutes timer anywhere that gets triggered here Edited December 18, 2018 by daedalus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 28638 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 This shouldn't be related, but just for testing, can you disable the app's screensaver and then see if it still happens? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deathsquirrel 722 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 In my test the screensaver was off already so I've now turned off cinema mode on the client.

pmac 122 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 @@Luke, is there any more info that may help you hunt down this issue? From what I've noticed, it seems to be every time I use the FF button to skip through the end credits, and the following episode will restart after what seems to be exactly 2 minutes, every time. When I get a chance, I'll update this post to see if it happens to me without skipping the end credits, and letting them play through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
