Left clicking a playing video will toggle the pause state.

You might consider using MCWS, MC's web service interface, to control MC.

Run MC's Library Server and then click here:

We cant try this in JRVR JimH as it doesn’t have any enhancement features like madvr does. As you know madvr has many extra features that JRVR doesn’t and that’s the only reason we stick with madvr, maybe one day we can change if and when JRVR may catch up.

There are no changes here Jim, we have been doing exactly the same thing for more than 8 years and everything has always worked perfectly with every single JR version we have had over the years.....
The only resent changes that have been made (on the same day) was to update to MC29 and update Windows which we havent done in years. We never update Windows as the PC is a dedecated HT PC and when everything works perfectly we never update. Our resent update to MC29 was to test JRVR which sadly didnt do justice to our large 150" curved scope screen, hence the reason to sticking with madvr for now.....
This would work for us if MC29 had an option to not pause the film when one left clicks to bring it into focus. As Ive mentioned on this thread in the past we run a small film club and we cant pause the film then restart when people are in the cinema, thats certainly not nice.
We will try your "other" idea and report back.

I'm also using Theater View (with JRVR all the time, btw), and noticed that indeed sometimes keyboard and mouse inputs don't seem to be interpreted by MC anymore despite the fact that the video window is on top of everything else. (I think it used to/still does(?) happen when starting playback of a DVD or Bluray, if the playback was started by pressing Play on a ISO, or when MC has to download something first before starting playback, etc)
What I discovered is that if I cycle using F11 (yes, for some reason F11 is still interpreted by MC, while other keys such as arrow keys or Enter are not) between the video window -> the Theater View main view -> the last Theater View view before starting playback -> back to main video window, somehow this "resets" whatever state MC is in and it interprets all keyboard and mouse inputs again. Try it out!
As a side-note: if I got this right, MC actually makes use of two windows when in Theater View mode: the Theater View window, and the Display View window. The Theater View window is used to display the theater mode user interface, while the video is rendered in the Display View window. When someone starts playback of a video file from the Theater View window, MC switches from the Theater View window to the Display View window.
JimH:
Switching to JRVR (and rebooting) might give you a better idea if madVR is the problem.
