Bugzilla – Bug 16030
Sync option missing on TinySC
Last modified: 2011-05-11 15:45:30 UTC
Touch > Settings > Sync is missing from the menu when running TinySC I can see all of my other players on Touch, my other players offer to Sync to Touch
That menu item should only appear if you actually have multiple players connected to the TinySC. It looks, however, as if the availability of that menu item does not change (to available) after it, or the Settings menu has been initially rendered.
This is reproducible as Alan describes: 1) reboot fab4 (with USB drive so that TinySC is enabled 2) connect the other player to TinySC 3) Note Settings -> Synchronize is available and works (no problem) HOWEVER 1) Power down the other player 2) reboot fab4 3) Go to the Settings menu 4) Note no Synchronize option is available 5) Power on the other player, and connect it to TinySC 6) Navigate around the Fab4 menu 7) Note there is still no Synchronize option on the Fab4's Settings menu Workaround: Synchronize players from their individual UIs. :( Or, reboot the Fab4 and give it a minute for all previously-connected players to reconnect, then go to Settings -> Synchronize and work from there.
Ben, do you want to take this?
sure, I'll take it. note to self: will probably be solved 100% server side.

Remainder of bug fix will be having the syncMenuItem sent out to all SP's when synchable players are added to a single player system checkin the preset menu item command, in case the preset branch of SP is ever pulled in command is dormant for now, as nothing calls it with current code
