Bugzilla – Bug 16045
Switching between close and far ui can be messy
Last modified: 2010-09-13 11:59:41 UTC
Sometimes on touch automatic switching between the close and far ui by using the ir remote can lead to a screen that is illegible. On example to reproduce: With a factory reset fab4 walk through setup using touch until you are at the screen where you can choose to use an existing account or create a new one. Instead of using touch at this point use the ir remote to select. Notice that the screen becomes garbled and hard to read. I believe this is a duplicate but I have not found the original.
My recollection is that we had disallowed skin switching through setup. If my memory is correct, that's the bug to fix. IR remote should be operational, but skin switching should not happen during setup.
Ben notes that at the Touch UI design time, he and Noah agreed that the the skin switching should be disabled due to lots of text needing to be on the screen.
Chris to add a test case for production FW qualification
This bug has now been fixed in a released version of the Squeezeplay firmware (SB Touch, SB Radio, and SB Controller). If you are still seeing this bug, please make certain you are running firmware 9009 or higher, and re-open it. Thanks!
