Hi Guy's,
Whilst getting my skin ready for a pull request into the Jarvis repo I came across a problem with my playercontrols.xml file.
If I leave the video running and head back to the home screen, when I bring up the player controls nothing seems to be updating (other than button focus for the player buttons). The small video window, the progressbar and player time labels are all frozen although the video is still playing fine in the background (I can hear it playing). If I navigate to the video nav screen the playercontrol dialog is working exactly as it should, but as soon as I am displaying the home screen no updating.
Now as a small side note, the problem only shows itself on the Icon and Horizontal home menus, on my vertical home menu there is no problem. The vertical home menu does not have any shelf, so I thought that was the problem (so I disabled it to check), but nothing I try seems to pin point where the problem is occurring.
I am running Beta 3 of Jarvis on a i5 windows7 box and here is the log file to show what is going on. Line 1640 is where I am running the player control on the home screen and line 1750 is where I am running it in the Video nav screen. About the only difference I can see between the two is the occurrence of these two lines in the Home screen part of the log
I have compared my skin against a number of others (none of which have the problem) and I can't spot any major differences. I have been ripping my hair out for the last couple of weeks trying to track this down, but I'm fresh out of ideas. My skin is available on Github here for people to take a look.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
