on videos BACK/REW/FF controls disappear and lose function
Posted: Fri Sep 23, 2016 1:40 pm
On my target device, when I go to Images or Music I can see the BACK<>FORWARD, STOP/NEXT buttons. On Music, STOP doesn't work until I go to another song or change modes over to Images or Video. No big deal.
The problem is on Videos. At first when selecting one to play those controls do come up on screen, but as soon as the video is loaded they disappear, the video always takes up the whole screen, making the BACK/REWIND<>FASTFORWARD, STOP/NEXT buttons go off the screen, inaccessible, and my remote's buttons do nothing for those functions.
As a guess, it seems the best way to fix this would be to make the videos display in a smaller 'window' with just enough TV screen space at the bottom to be able to see and select these controls. Changing the TV's Aspect doesn't help. Is there anyway to do this INSIDE Serviio? Or maybe some other idea?
BTW, though the old Hitachi 51F59 51" rear-projection TV is the end point, the intermediate device/connection is a DISH Network "Hopper 3" DVR connected via ethernet to my router, as is my Win7 PC. I can't go to the TV directly from the router.
