Bugzilla – Bug 869
muted playback
Last modified: 2008-08-18 10:53:01 UTC
Here are the steps. server 6.0 r2231. Player and web ui affected. press power off while playing, press power on. press play and every thing is ok. however if you press power off while paying, press power on and instead click a different song in teh web ui, or skip forward with remote then the playback starts muted. the only difference I can see here is that playing executes playmode('play'), which jumping executes playmode('stop'), changes songs, then executes playmode('play')
I"m a little confused by this. Can you recreate it with just the remote (I couildn't) or do you need to use both the remote and the web interface to recreate?
I was able to reliably recreate using either. However, I'll retest with latest and fill in more details.
Created attachment 323 [details] d_command log I'm still getting this. Using the remote, play an album. Press POWER to turn off Press POWER again to turn on Press FWD Press NOW PLAYING to verify it is playing becuase I heard no sound press VOL UP, and the volume starts back up from zero.
I've tested with the patch committed to 2524 and this appears to now be gone.
sadly, this has now returned. if you pause, then we get music with volume. if you pause, then press FWD, you get muted playback. reproduceable with remote control. To be specific, it is actually setting volume to zero. fade_volume drops to zero on a pause. pressing play unfades, but jump +1 does not and stays at zero. interestingly, this does offer a way out, since zero isn't what we use for mute.
Created attachment 345 [details] fade_volume up on jump if we've previously fade_vol down this checks for the zero volume left behind on pause or power off. if volume is zero, then unfade. if volume was manually set to zero, fade_volume already knows and simply stays at zero.
kiss this one goodbye at r2567
