#9305 closed Bug Report

Pause / Play after fast forward causes movie to restart — at Version 8

Reported by: salstrom@… Owned by: markk
Priority: minor Milestone:
Component: MythTV - DVD Playback Version: 0.24-fixes
Severity: medium Keywords: DVD Playback fast forward
Cc: Ticket locked: no

Description (last modified by Raymond Wagner)

While watching a movie using the Internal Player using the Fast Forward (any speed) then pressing Pause / Play causes the movie to start over at the beginning.

I have experienced this with .iso files on Storage Groups and not using Storage Groups as well as with DVD's in the local drive.

I've attached two files. Dragon_tattoo.txt is the log from playing the DVD disk of Region 1 (Netflix) The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. I skipped to Chapter 4 then used Fast Forward 3x. Then pressed "Pause" to stop the fast forward then "Play". It started the movie from the beginning.

surfs_up.txt is the Region 1 movie Surf's Up which was ripped as a .iso. This was started from the beginning. Same as above, FF 3x then Pause / Play. The movie restarted.

Someone on the mythtv-users list said they had the same issue with all the movies they tried as well.

OK - I can re-create it here (missed the Pause bit). Looks like libdvdnav is seeking back to the start when you pause (but doesn't when pausing from normal playback).

As a temporary workaround, if you press enter (or whatever is correct on your remote) to exit fast forward (rather than pause then play) that you should find it works as expected.

Great... Good to see you were able to track it down. If you end up making a 0.24-fixes patch to it I'd be happy to test it. Thanks for your work!!!
