Hello,

I am wondering if someone can point me in the right direction as to how to delay the buffering dialog from popping up. I use MQ6 with Cinemavision, and the skin has the annoying habit of popping up this dialog very briefly between every video clip, even tho they are not streaming. So I was thinking if perhaps a 2 second delay could be added before this dialog is shown, it would help the viewing experience a lot.

thx

Did this ever get resolved? Mine does this too...

Nothing yet.

Maybe you can play with the cache settings? Set to buffer nothing. I'm just throwing that out there, never played with the cache settings myself

Actually, looking into it a little since the developer or anyone else hasn't.....

Here is the code from videofullscreen.xml

Code:

    <!-- Buffering Dialog -->
    <control type="label" id="24">
    <description>buffering label</description>
    <label>$LOCALIZE[15107] $INFO[Player.CacheLevel]%</label>
    <left>499</left>
    <top>330</top>
    <width>281</width>
    <height>18</height>
    <aligny>center</aligny>
    <align>center</align>
    <font>Font_23</font>
    <textcolor>80FFFAF0</textcolor>
    <include>Animation_Fade</include>
    </control>
    </controls>
</window>

It's literally the LAST section of code in that file, can't miss it! I would assume you can mess with these settings to achieve what you would like. Probably just delete the whole section or make a <visible> so that it only shows when certain conditions are met.

Probably you could add

Code:

<visible>Player.IsInternetStream</visible>

after the <control type.......> line. Then the dialog should only appear when Kodi is actually streaming and not when playing local files.

Good to know, thanks!
