So it's me again ;-)

found some strange behaviour ... when I am playing a video it is alway flipped so it is head over heels. Occurs with all my videos I recorded with the iphone.

Andy ideas?

Just started playing with this, mainly for music. (its great btw).
I played YouTube videos from my iPad Air and this was fine. But when using the Netflix app it simply does not want to play and fails. Any one else experienced this?

    @RobertinoM Unfortunately this is a LAV Filter/FFMpeg issue. The video is stored in it's original orientation which in your case was upside down as you had the home button on the left. There is rotation info stored in the file header which allows a proper QuickTime player to rotate it correctly but FFMpeg (and therefore LAV) ignore it and just render it upside down.

    @AciidSn3ak3r Some services only allow access to their streams from legitimate Apple devices so MediaPortal is unable to connect I'm afraid :(

    Thanks for your Plugin. I love it.

    Problem:
    If AirPlayer works go the TV Server after some minutes in Stand By.

    Which process running when the AirPlayer works.
    I need the process to this in the TV Server Exception List "Process Which shoulderstand preventDefault Standby" to enter.

    Or is there some other way so that when the AirPlayer not running the TV Server in Stand By going.

    Does it occur when audio or video (or both) is playing? There aren't any additional processes running when it's active, it's completely internal.

    Do you have PowerScheduler enabled in MediaPortal Configuration as well as TV Server configuration? I don't use it myself but it seems both need to be enabled on single seat setups.

    EDIT: I think I might have found the problem, I wasn't setting full screen video correctly. Hopefully fixed in next version.

    Thanks for your fast answer.

    I have test ist. Play Musik - no Stand By after some Minutes - Already OK.
    Picture or Play Video - Stand By after some minutes.

    Have you a solution for the Audio Problem. After change Volume Controle on Iphone or Ipad the MP Audio Mixer goes to mute.

    Not yet - it's difficult as I don't see that behaviour on my systems - does it mute immediately after changing the volume on the device?

    When audio steaming is stopped the plugin should now restore the volume to the level it was at before streaming started, is that part working for you? I.e does it un-mute when you disconnect?

    I have an app on my iPad call vchannel which use to play RSS video but when connect it to the airplay server it said cannot play, is it a codec issue? No problem with mkv movie playback.
