Episode loops after resuming #793
Comments
I can NOT Duplicate this issue with the unstable branch. |
Could you apply this patch and let me know what the position is when resuming the episode? I'm just grasping at straws, but I did notice that this is always 0 for me, even in the middle of an episode.
EDIT: Nevermind, I don't think that's it. It looks like it only happens for certain videos. |
I have experienced it occasionally with select shows. In my case it would loop the last 5-10 seconds. I believe its something to do with the encoding of the video and not the Roku application itself, although it doesn't happen when running on a PC. |
I can reproduce this on v1.6.6 with "autoplay next episode" the default (on). In this case, the "Next Episode" button counts down to 0 and remains displayed ("Next Episode 0") when the loop is playing. |
I was able to reproduce this v1.6.6. Countdown for next episode reaches 0, the button stays visible, and the video jumped backwards in time (randomly?). I watched till the end again to see if it would fix itself but it continued to jump backwards in time once it reached the end of the show. The file was an AVI file so the issue seems to be with transcoded files. AVI xvid AC3 -> TS H264 AAC (stereo) EDIT: I'm using QSV for hardware accel if that matters:

I think this may be caused by playing video files with codecs the device doesn't fully support. In my case, the only videos doing the loop were AVI MPEG4 videos with AC3 audio. I had @fice-t @mdsib Can you guys try disabling all the user settings that attempt to play files the device may not support and see if you can reproduce this issue? These are the settings:

@cewert Unfortunately, my Roku TV has died. I can't reproduce anything till that's fixed. Which may be never. From what I remember, the issue seemed to be related to a race condition between marking the episode as completed and playing the next episode. That's why each loop would be closer to the end - it was the periodic watch time update's latest update before the end of the episode. But that doesn't explain why it was happening when autoplay was off. |
This may be fixed by #1941. Please reopen if this is still an issue on the latest version (v2.1.5+) |
Describe the bug
When I open up the app and resume an episode of a tv show, once it's over it'll keep on playing a little bit ahead of where I initially resumed it. It'll keep on doing this, getting closer and closer to starting at the end until it eventually ends. When this is happening, it shows the correct runtime and 0 seconds left. in the show. I can pause and resume it.
FWIW, I tested this just now on unstable, but it was happening on the most recent release as well.
Roku TV: C205X
Hisense model 55R6+
Software version 11.0.0 build 4193-94
To Reproduce
Expected behavior
It shouldn't loop.
Logs
Additional context
I've tried it on two series and they both do this to some extent.
