Scrubbing Issue After Update - Possibly Affecting Comskipper

[BenLovell 0]

I've noticed since the most recent server update that playback has started freezing when a recording of live tv comes to a detected commercial break and Comskipper tries to skip it. I thought it was an issue when the plugin, but when I try to move the playhead past the commercial break manually, it freezes as well and won't restart the video. I believe the two issues are related.

This is happening in the web player. I haven't tried it on other platforms.

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

@LukeHere's the log from the most recent example. It happened in the web player again. Streaming gets to a detected commercial break and then stops. Scrubbing forward shows the correct preview image in the thumbnail for the new timestamp, but continues playing from the point of the freeze without skipping the commercials.

OK this sounds like an older installation where we used to swallow the movie folder layer so that you wouldn't see it in folder view. This was removed a while back. Your existing libraries are left as is, but when you create a new one, it follows the newer convention where the folder layer is represented now.
