moviefan 184 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 MB for IOS is very cool and I like the look so far.... My main purpose for it right now is streaming videos over wifi to my apple TV at the moment using AirPlay. I was using AirVideo for this but would prefer to have everything under MB if possible. After starting to play the show and putting the phone down with MB, eventually the phone's screen goes dark due to the power saving configuration. When this happens, the TV stops playing. This doesn't happen with AirVideo. Is it possible to add a feature to prevent the screen saver from kicking in while video is playing in MB for IOS?

sfnetwork 514 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 This could be interesting... I'm not sure since it's using the native player if MB client would control this but I would add this as a request in github: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/MediaBrowser.iOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darwindeeds 356 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Thanks for reporting that. I never tested that behavior. I will look into it in the next update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok I added to github. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
