#1986: Switching VT terminals while in LiveTV or video playback does not restore
screen
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Reporter: chuckmarcotte at yahoo.com | Owner: ijr
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone:
Component: mythtv | Version:
Severity: medium |
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
If mythfrontend is at a menu, I can switch the VT to another X or text VT
and back again with no issues in screen restoration. If I am watching
LiveTV or
watching video playback, and I switch to another VT and then back again,
the screen stays black and no video is displayed.
I can then kill the mythfrontend process (from a text VT) and the desktop
is
restored on the X VT.
Several error messages about buffering the video appear in the shell where
I started mythfrontend.
Suggested behavour:
Upon a VT switch away while any video is playing, pause the video
playback.
Upon a VT switch back to the mythfrontend, the video will be paused and
the current
frame can be repainted/refreshed based in the VT switch (VT event ?).
If this is too difficult, just have the frontend exit to the main menu.
