Start Live TV from inside Program Guide, only Sound and Black Screen. (DRRC issue) (1 Viewer)

[Owlsroost]

I've no idea why it's not doing 'TvPlugin.TvFullScreen init'

I assumed that was because the channel was selected in the guide, and so it was only going to show in the corner (as per the screenshot)...

This is a larger piece of the log (finishing at the same line as the first piece I quoted above):

Note the "g_Player: ShowFullScreenWindow switching to fullscreen tv" log line (and AFAIK, going straight to full-screen TV is normal behaviour when clicking on a current programme in the guide - it certainly always is/has been for me using DefaultWideHD - maybe Titan is different, or there is some option somewhere to change the behaviour ?).

maybe Titan is different, or there is some option somewhere to change the behaviour ?).

We are not talking Titan here but Titanius, a skin by Powermarcel10, which unfortunately appears to have been abandoned by him. I am also using it (in some more advanced beta version, yet some bugs remain) and maybe there are incompatibilities.

Hm my test is done with the default Titan skin.

OK, i have deactivate the dynamic refresh rate changer, and now it works perfectly, start live tv over program guide by clicking on a show/movie.

So after this i activate dynamic refresh rate changer again, start mepo and the issue is back.

Here the log i start my test around 20:15 pm.

That explains why I could not consistently reproduce the problem. My DRRC is deactivated (because the standard settings don't work for 4:3 and some other formats, which are broadcasted by the ProSieben and RTL group). It does not explain why my first try confirmed your findings.
