Problem playing ISO after playing MKV

[dirkomatic]

I have some short videos in HD MKV format that I hadn't tried playing with GB-PVR yet. I finally got around to it... They played fine when I selected them, but after watching an MKV clip, I tried to watch a DVD ISO and it returned to the Video Library screen without playing the movie.

I exited GB-PVR and attempted the same thing just using the standard PCH software and it worked just fine.

Is there anything I can do to play both formats without restarting GB-PVR?

Thanks.

Reproduce the problem, then zip and attach the logs and I'll take a look.

Here you go. I played the MKV, stopped, then played the ISO and I got the Popcorn logo. It never went any further. I pressed stop, got a black screen, then pressed the power and exited GBPVR.

It went back to the PCH home screen.

I dont think you managed to capture it in those logs. Have you got your mvp server count to something more than '1'? If so, you'll need to drop it back to '1' then reproduce the problem and repost the logs.

I have an istar and a popcorn, so it is set to 2. I set it to 1 for this capture.

I see my attempt to play the ISO near the bottom of MVP-PVRX2.exe-1.log in this one...[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]

Everything looks ok in the GB-PVR side of your logs.

You might need to run mvpmcx2 from a telnet session and capture the output.

I just did a quick test and I think there is a problem in mvpmcx2 which I will have to look into over the weekend.

Thanks, Martin.

Can one of you post what I need to do to capture the output in a telnet session?

It is late (early?) here and I need to get to bed. Hopefully, I can help troubleshoot a little later.

Thanks, Martin!

The new version solved this. Wonderful job!

Although, the new screen saver option takes me to the Net Radio screen when playing music from my Music Library. Kind of strange...

For --no-nmt-gui I do tell it to go to the Net Radio Screen, otherwise GBPVR didn't do a screen refresh, but it shouldn't impact --nmt-gui-ss. Did you download a new version since UJB's post about the problem?
