How do I get back to what I am viewing? (1 Viewer)

[MacMini]

This sounds silly, but I couldn't figure it out or find an answer. If I am viewing, say a TV show in My TV Series, and then for whatever reason I hit the "Back" button on the remote (sometimes by mistake...,) how do I get back to what I am viewing?

If I hit back, I can get to the main Menu screen, the video is playing in the little window, but I can't select it. If I click on the "Screen" button in the bar with the "Close," "Off," etc. buttons, I get the video in full screen, but with overlay of the menus.

What am I missing here?

I am using a MCS remote, and the red button on the bottom left seems to be mapped to do what you want. Not sure which remote you use though, or what the keyboard command could be

Go to 'my videos', move onto the menu at the left then hit down until your lill video window is selected. hit enter and it should fullscreen it.

Hm, it doesn't work that way with my setup.

I use My Films for my Video_ts files and My TV Series for DIVX rips, etc..

I just experimented again with My TV Series and could not go back to select the shrunk video screen. Maybe it's a bug in the plugins....

Is anyone using these pugins successful at being able to select the shrunk video screen?

Not sure if this helps or not, but the x key switches between fullscreen video and the GUI, or vice versa.

Thanks guys/gals

I use an MX-850 RF universal, but the MCE remote I still have doesn't have the row of colored buttons at the bottom.

The "X" does work, however, so I'll look to see if there is an IR code for "X" for the MX-850, or I'll just use the KeyBoardInputPlugin and map an unused key input to "X."

Thanks!
