Material/Version

 

VU+ Ultimo (1200E8)

Image : OpenPLi 4

Kernel Version : 3.1.1

Enigma : 2014-03-21

 

Remark: Other Images tested but give the same result

 

 

My problem is simple, when I play a movie (TS or MKV imported) in the  <play recorded movies> I just want to play next movie from the movie list when I reach the end of the selected movie.

 

In the Set-up menu, an option can be selected to do that:

Behavior when a movie reach the end      Play next (return to movie list)

 

So, I have selected this option [Play Next], but it seems that this option is ignored in play recorded movies.

More precisely, it seems that the user selection concerning the [Behavior when a movie reach the end] is overwritten with the selection [return to movie List] as soon as we go one time in the <Play Recorded Menu>.

 

The user selection is overwritten in RAM not in Flash. See details here after:

 

 

Power on the unit (exit from standby)

 

Check settings:

 

Press key <Enter Main Menus>

             Set-Up

                System

                   Record

                      .

                      .

                      Behavior when a movie reach the end      Current selection is -> Play next (return to movie list)

                     

Exit all

 

Press key <Play Recorded Movies>

 

Exit this menu

 

Press key <Enter Main Menus>

             Set-Up

                System

                   Record

                      .

                      .

                      Behavior when a movie reach the end      Current selection is now -> return to movie list

 

Exit all

 

Put the unit in standby

                     

Power on the unit (exit from standby)

 

Check settings:

 

Press key <Enter Main Menus>

             Set-Up

                System

                   Record

                      .

                      .

                      Behavior when a movie reach the end      Current selection is -> Play next (return to movie list)

                     

        

 

Other subject (suggestion)

 

In the other hand, when the movie list contain a lot of movie (MKV, TS) we have no key on the remote to go directly to the next or previous movie (without returning to the movie list)

It will be logical for me that the keys [<] [>] will make the job. But these keys (<,>) just return to the begining of the current movie.

Can you tell me if there is a way to do that with current software?

If not, I will be nice to add this features (go quickly from one movie to next or previous).

 

 

Thank you for your suggestions, comments and support.

 

Regards

I can understand that when you enter something, it may change (not that it should, but code could do that).

 

I can not understand that when you return from standby (which technically isn't standby at all, the box keeps running, only tuners and video is switched off) the configured value is magically restored...

 

Don't have a box handy at the moment, but I can't say I have ever seen this behaviour.


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Ultimate (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

Many answers to your question can be found in our new and improved wiki.
