No video controls while playing mkv files

tjf · 2007-05-13, 10:25

I tried the SVN version 14590 but had similar problems with older beta builds as well. The stable 0.2.2 does not have the problem.

Description of the problem:

While playing MKV videos I do not get on screen controls. Pressing 'i' button on my MCE remote does nothing, so do rewind or skip buttons. However if I try WMV file, everything works fine. I thought it could be caused by Haali media splitter which I am using, but it also does not work with Gabest matroska splitter.

The workaround for this problem with SVN version from April 30 was to press DVD menu on the remote, which gave me the "please insert disk" message - after canceling it, the controls start working (as if focus problem?). However with todays SVN this is not possible anymore.

It happens with the default skin and with Revision as well.

Here is a short mkv file for testing: http://www.volny.cz/tfojta/mkv/test.mkv

I am attaching the log file.
