Title: Theater view - goes automatically to next video
Post by: jkolker on December 27, 2017, 07:30:36 am

Hello!

Using the latest MC23.  If I watch a video (theater view) it will automatically go to the next video after finishing the one I was watching.  At one point it used to go back to the menu, which is what I prefer.  Mainly, I'm watching recorded TV show episodes.  I checked all the settings, but not sure I see anything for that purpose.  Tried to search the forum, but not exactly sure what to search for.

So...is there a way to stop MC from going automatically to the next video?

Thanks!

Are you sure you aren't selecting "Watch All" instead of just "Watch" in Theatre View?

Watch All will keep playing all the videos in a group.

I purposely avoid "Watch All"

If you somehow added multiple shows to "Playing Now" MC would play them all in sequence.

I'm not sure how you would be doing that without knowing though. There is a play all at the Season level view in Theatre View. I guess if an IR command from a remote control sent Play at that level it might be interpreted as Play All.

When you start playing something, check the Playing Now list to see what is in there. Perhaps clear Playing Now before starting playback to make the issue obvious. If there are lots, that is at least a start to solving the mystery.
