lolque 0 Posted March 26 Hitting the spacebar in the emby web app will open the settings menu. This happens even when a video is playing. Spacebar used to pause/unpause the video if one was playing. Running Emby 4.4.0.40. Browser is Chrome/80.0.3987.136 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luke 24263 Posted March 26 Hi, that is strange because i just tested this today and it worked fine. Can you try the online web app: http://app.emby.media How does that compare? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lolque 0 Posted March 26 It does the same thing if I use app.emby.media to connect to my emby instance. The only difference is it says Emby Web 4.4.0.43 at the bottom now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luke 24263 Posted March 26 When you press the space bar, is the video OSD showing at the time, or no? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Happy2Play 3788 Posted March 26 From where are you seeing this? I don't get a setting with space bar anywhere I have selected. Within a library it will appear to page down one page, then nothing. And on itemdetails page it will start playing the item. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lolque 0 Posted March 26 So I tried this using a few different browsers from the home screen. Using Vivaldi (Chrome/80.0.3987.136), hitting space bar will always bring you to the settings page. No Video OSD shows up. Using Edge 44.19041.1.0, hitting space bar will open the first media folder. No video OSD shows up. Using Chrome Chrome/80.0.3987.149 on MacOS, hitting space bar will do different things depending on what UI element was last selected. If you last clicked a blank area it will scroll. If you last clicked a ... dropdown, hitting spacebar will reopen the dropdown. Hitting it again will select the first option (usually play) as if you had clicked it, which will start playing the video. I tried the same thing while a video is playing. Using Vivaldi (Chrome/80.0.3987.136), hitting space bar will always bring you to the settings page, closing the video OSD. Using Edge 44.19041.1.0, hitting space bar will pause/unpause the video correctly. However if you click on the video (not the OSD) it will correctly pause/unpause the video, but will make spacebar stop working until you click on the OSD again or the OSD times out. There is another bug? where if you last clicked on fast forward, the "selection" will be stuck on fast forward and spacebar will now fast forward the video until the OSD times out. Using Chrome Chrome/80.0.3987.149 on MacOS behaves the same as edge above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luke 24263 Posted March 26 before you hit the spacebar what does the screen look like? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luke 24263 Posted March 26 How did you get the video OSD to show? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lolque 0 Posted March 26 (edited) If you're talking about the issue, the OSD comes up when the video is paused using space bar (on Edge/Chrome), which should be correct imho. On Vivaldi it exits video playback all together and goes to the settings page. If you're talking about the screenshot, it came up when I moved the mouse to take the screenshot to demonstrate what page I was on.

Luke 24263 Posted March 26 So you're saying this only happens in Vivaldi? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lolque 0 Posted March 26 (edited) I should rename the topic to "Hitting space bar is does different things on every browser". There's a few problems here. 1) For Vivaldi and Edge, hitting spacebar produces unexpected results on the home screen (see above for exact results). Chrome seems to have the most correct behavior, but it's not perfect. 2) Different browsers behave differently to spacebar. I got 3 different results with 3 different browsers and I have not gotten a response which one is the correct behavior or why it's inconsistent. Vivaldi does seem to be behaving the worst (where hitting spacebar will open the settings page no matter where you are), but in either case it's not consistent between ANY browser, so it's hard to pin down if it's a browser specific issue, or it's a bug that manifests itself differently on each browser.

lolque 0 Posted March 26 (edited) I tested spacebar behavior on https://app.emby.media and the behavior is the same. For kicks I also tried spacebar behavior on Jellyfin and the behavior is consistent (and correct) on all 3 tested browsers (including Vivaldi), on both the home screen and during video playback.

Happy2Play 3788 Posted March 26 For me Firefox, Chrome, and New Edge have the exact same behavior, scrolling and play and pause (no settings screen from anywhere). There is no need to compare the other guy as they are doing there own things correct or not, it has nothing to do with us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BloodyIron 17 Posted March 28 Hmmm sounds like the issue I've had since Dec 2019 ( thread : https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/79959-spacebar-pauses-and-loads-up-profile-43030/ ) Luke advised me it should be fixed in next update, unsure if this is the same or different?
