Hi,

Since upgrading to Helix I haven't been able to play archived movies. The actual movie will start up (enabling "Support browsing into archives" won't help), but only with audio and a music visualization in the background. Does anybody know how to fix this? Is it a known issue?
On Raspberry Pi?
If the movie was in a rar file and was scanned with "Support browsing into archives" disabled, then it needs to be rescanned before it will play.
This is a known issue, and "Support browsing into archives" will be disabled as a default in next release.

Ah, thanks! That sounds reasonable, I'm gonna try it out.
