I've been using 0.25 since shortly after it was released about 9 months ago. Unfortunately, a number of things broke or stopped working correctly compared to 0.24. Commercial flagging became spotty at best, and Live TV is a complete mess if you're trying to record what you're watching (or watch what you're recording), and MythMusic's interface became baffling and difficult such that we hardly use it anymore. I think those issues have already been thrashed on this mailing list, but there's another one that I haven't seen mentioned. We use the "save bookmark and exit" feature and it's counterpart "clear bookmark on playback" or whatever it's called. Frequently (but not always?) if we
exit playback from a paused state, the bookmark will not be saved. Our
workaround has been to hit play briefly before escape. What might be
another symptom is that when I press pause, the progress bar displays
with the current position briefly, then it goes to 0:00:00. This is only
for recordings; LiveTV shows the correct position on the progress bar.
Another, similar problem is if I accidentally hit skip forward while paused, it starts playing in fast forward (it's possible/likely the same key is mapped to both functions). Then I come to my senses and hit Play again to resume normal speed but that typically makes it jump back to the beginning and start playing from there again. I can't remember exactly but I think it's more likely to happen if I've hit the skip forward button several times in a row (like I would if I was skipping commercials). I don't have any logs to show yet but I was wondering if anyone else had seen that or could reproduce the problem. I've had it since the first version of 0.25 and it's still there in 0.25.3 from around the first of the year.<br>
<br>I'm using the MythCenter-wide theme if that matters.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>Karl<br><br>P.S.,
I'm not upgrading to 0.26+ because I have an ivtv device and my family
uses LiveTV and I haven't heard that the problem has been resolved. I seem to recall there were other unresolved
(ffmpeg-related?) breakages, too.
