Title: Remotes: Msg Pop Ups on MC Server stops control
Post by: jmone on September 09, 2017, 09:32:22 pm

Just testing the DLNA playback on a new LG TV using my Android Phone as the Control Point (EOS) from my Main PC running MC Server to the TV.  What I found is that when trying to play different items I would get Pop Up Msgs on the Main PC (not in the Control Point) so at which point the Control Point could not longer function and you have no idea why it is not working.  You need to go to the PC and clear the Pop Up Msg.  Example were:
- Asking if you wanted to Resume or Start Playback from the Beginning (eg when "Resume playback using bookmarks: Ask")
- When it could not find a TV Tuner

I guess that if MC is being Controlled by a Remote these popups should be suppressed or passed to the remote for action?

Thanks
Nathan

Yeah. And if the server is itself running in Theater View, those pop ups are sometimes not even visible, although they are modal, so you can't see them to hit the Cancel button, and make them go away..

this would be a welcome enhancement, the behaviour atm is really quite unfriendly

Coming next build:
Changed: The program will no longer ask about resuming from a bookmark even if it's configured to ask when it's in no error mode (like when it's connected to a server).

If you can tell me what the error was when it didn't find a TV tuner, I could gate that one as well.

Thanks.

I think I found it.  Please test next build and let us know how it's working.
