Title: MC 22 wants to play all zones
Post by: erlkonig on October 18, 2016, 05:50:40 pm
Hi!

I'm using 22.0.32. My server is a Win 7 PC. Controller is a Win 10 laptop, set to show server zones. The zones it shows are

Player (the laptop/controller)
There: Player (the PC/server)
There: Oppo BDP-103

I want to play to the Oppo, but when I hit play, MC starts playing in all of the zones. If the other zones don't have anything in them, I get a message box that there's nothing to play. (If the MC UI is up on the server, I get a message box there, too). In the playing now overview, it shows the Oppo as the current zone.

I've tried shutting everything down. That seems to help momentarily (ie, at the time I bring it back up). If I shut down the Oppo, then come back later and fire it up (without cycling the software), the problem returns.

I'd rather not have to restart the app/server, since I'm trying to build something that's easy for the wife to use. I searched here but didn't find anything.

Thanks for any help!

That sounds pretty weird.
You don't have linked zones on the server do you?

I don't, because there's really only one zone I play to. I've actually worked around it by putting a very short, silent track in the playlists of the zones I don't want to hear.
