Unable to resume AVI file playing


Question

Posted

Hi All,

I have discovered a weird bug. If I exit playing .avi file and try to open it again the tv will show an error 'This file cannot be recognised. Returning to list.'

I guess it stores a timestamp after exiting playing video to resume playing it later from the same position.

But for some files (in my case avi files) the TV can't resume from a specific time (for some reason).

I haven't found an option to remove a resume timestamp for a specific file. As a workaround I can rename the file and the TV will play it fine from the start.

TV: 55UM7100PLB

webOS TV Version: 4.7.0-50607 (goldilocks2-gulaga)

Demo of the bug:

Thank for any help.

The problem arises when it tries to resume from the previous place it left when you stopped (it doesn't happen on all videos though).
You can disable the automatic resume and the problem will dissapear!
You can find the option while you are playing a video in the webos media player (just play another video, any video, it doesn' t matter) under  the Advanced settings. 
Make sure you disable the option and you're done!
