Hello,
when playing video files, the Next and Previous buttons doesn't skip to the next/previous file.
Instead, it just fast forward to a point in the same file (it basically act as "Jump to" in the context menu)
With audio file however, it works as intended, "next" skip to the next track (same for "previous")
How do i get this back to normal? ;D
(Media Center 21.0.23)
Thanks

I can't reproduce this.
Next always jumps to the next file for me, and previous jumps to the beginning and then the previous file a second push.

And just for the record, you can configure the previous button here:
Options > General > Previous button
To be either "CD player style" or "Previous track always".

What the OP is describing is this:
When playing a video file, Next and Previous skip to chapter markers within the file. It won't skip to the next video as long as the current video has chapter markers.
I just did 5 minutes of research and I can't seem to find an alternative core command that will skip the next item in playing now no matter what. Does someone know the right command for this?
Brian.

This is the problem!
I hope someone can fix this, it's brutally annoying.
"Problem" is a subjective word (maybe everyone else is happy with this behavior.)
I don't care much about the JRiver UI buttons myself as i have everything mapped to my controller and that's the only thing i use. (Right now i have "10003 MCC_NEXT" and "10004 MCC_PREVIOUS" mapped).
I wouldn't request to change the UI buttons behavior as that would mess with other users (seems like nobody asked about this before, i guess everyone likes it)
How much time/work would it take to add a different command line number and force next/previous to work on any file (so we could at least have a workaround)?

I'm thinking about it. Not sure if anything good will come from the thinking or not, but at least it's a start!

This is a good start ;D
Thanks.

It's funny because I had it all mapped out in my head how I was going to tackle this.
And looking at the actual code, it's already done!
Just set the flag "2" when passing an MCC_NEXT or MCC_PREVIOUS and that'll make it not skip chapters.
And the comments in our code even describe that:
MCC_NEXT, // [int nFlags (1: bNotActualNext, 2: bNoChapters)]
MCC_PREVIOUS, // [int nFlags (1: reserved, 2: bNoChapters, 4: no seek to beginning)]
I think we need to update the wiki!

I updated the wiki.
-
I think I added those flags a while ago because someone asked.
At least it sounds vaguely familiar.

Thanks! I scoured the Wiki article on Core Commands yesterday for quite a while. It's nice that this is now documented.
I just tested mapping keys with parameter 2 and it works exactly as expected. Yay! :)

Congrats folks,
JRiver just got better (it was already better, but we just didn't know about it ;D)
Thanks for updating the wiki.
Cheers.

Guilty. At least I think it was me.
