Sync problem on WP7.8 remote functionality

[lolwut 16]

Hi @@ScottIsAFool,

 

WP7.8 <-> Server <-> MBT connection has sync problems (WP7.8, Server+MBT are on the same network)

 

Examples:

 

• Remote page is empty after you start playing an item on MBT or Web Client. You need to hit refresh few times to get it working. 
• When You pause an item, the pause button shows instead of play. You need to hit refresh for it to show play button.
• It shows the previous item playing on the MBT unless you hit refresh.
• You need to hit refresh few times to show new clients that joined to server recently.

 

Basically, You need to hit refresh before and after everything you do to remote control to show correct info and work. 

 

Doesnt server send some kind of notification back after a state change, so app refreshes automatically, or doesnt app have some kind of refresh timeout after an event?

I am asking this because maybe app is working correctly and my network is blocking these notifications and messing with app functionality

 

Anyway, can you please look into it?

 

Cheers

 

BTW, Still waiting on video playback on WP7.8

It should do, yes. You're not the first to report this and I am investigating the issue.
