Fast forward or rewind controls and scene selection not working in MB Classic

[MYT 0]

Hey Guys was hoping you could help me out with a problem im having.

 

My setup:

MB Server Version 3.0.5395.0 on server machine

MB Classic Version 3.0.221.0 on htpc machine

 

Movies are stored as MKV files on server machine. The movies are typically played on htpc machine. They play/pause fine.

The problem is they wont fast forward/rewind or even let me select a scene. 

 

Is everybody having these issues or is it a local setup problem ? 

 

P.S I've tried updating the server and htpc software and rebooting but didnt help any.

We'll need more information like exactly what you are doing and a log.  But, WMC cannot FF or Rew mkv files.  If you punch in a number and hit FF or Rew it will skip ahead that many seconds though.

I have WMC with XBOX 360 as extender and cannot FF or REW no matter what.. I can go to scene selections and I can move the scrubber forward but if I hit play nothing happens and if I hit OK/Enter the current play postion moves forward but then won't play.

What am I missing here? This seems to only happen on MKV files. I have look through the other posts here and don't see an answer to this problem.

 

Please help.

The 360 doesn't support all media types and MKV will kinda work for some people but not all features will.

Can't even do it directly out of my WMC skipping Xbox all together. No FF or RW with screen controls and mouse.

WMC cannot natively ff or rew mkvs.  If you use your remote buttons (or media buttons on a keyboard) you can skip ahead and back in defined increments.
