Yes, same problem here. Only a black screen in Firefox and a lot of missing covers for the movies...

Firefox has this problem and it's a known issue. I'll try to fix it in future, but currently please use Chrome or IE.

Many thanks for the answer...

It's working fine with Chrome, but is there any way to get rid off this "Flowplayer"-Icon/Advertisement? That's not nice and if I don't use FullScreen I can't see what's in the left corner :(

I agree that should be taken off the screen, it doesn't look nice and if the pro version is payed for it shouldn't be there

It looks like it's a bug which has not been fixed since beta. Usually the logo is there only when playing the first video. Try to play the video for a bit, go back, play it again and the logo should disappear.

So I have to continue using 1.3.1 for the moment.

It's too much to explain to my girls, that they need to change their browser and start a movie two times :D

Perhaps another player would be a possibility...

does it stop when playing via media browser? if yes I would check the internet connection speeds you got, upload speed where serviio is streaming from and the connection strength from the receiving device

It could be you have the wrong profile for your device, check if the right profile is selected for your tv. If you still have problems I suggest you make a new post in the help and support and also copy the logs and paste them in your post

Hello,

If you are lazy like me and/or if you don't want to use IE,
Try this - > https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fire-ie

But first,
Go to Fire IE Options,
Then IE Options TAB,
Select IE10 Standards Mode, a
And Enable hardware accelerated rendering.

Restart FF, go to your mediabrowser and switch engine before login.


Edit: btw, great job, the new mediabrowser is exelent, love the search function. I have like 14TB of files on my server and the old one was really annoying.

Hi, If someone can point me in the direction to test this code change inside the mediabrowser code, I would be willing to test and verify it for the firefox browser and flowplayer issue:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/775766

"This is what worked for me.

Firefox seems sensitive to the format of the style attribute in the <a> tag that specifies the video.

This does NOT work style="display:block;width:250 px;height:188 px;"

This does work style="display:block; width:250px; height:188px;"

Other browsers (IE, Opera, Chrome, Safari) work with both of the above formats. "

Thank you,
~ack

I tried that and it didn't help. I have it marked as 'to fix' for 1.4.1

No idea, but just a thought, flowplayer released a new version. Perhaps this could help?

Hello!

I am pre-sales and wondering if this issue has been fixed before I buy.

The web-based streaming is the primary reason I am interested in Serviio, but no Firefox is a deal breaker.

Has this issue been fixed?

Thank you for your time!
