Picture not changing while paused

Post by engjs » Sun Jan 19, 2020 10:30

If I use the arrow keys to advance or backup live TV or media player, the picture updates with each key press. If the beyonwiz is paused, no update happens until it is unpaused, at which point it starts playing from where it was moved to. So you cannot tell where you are if the pause button is set. This is not how things worked on my T4: using the arrows while paused advanced the image displayed. I assume that there is a setting somewhere that is not set correctly. Could some kind soul please point me to it? Thanks in advance.

No, that's just how the V2 is. It's a different hardware platform to the T series with closed source drivers, so for now they're is not much Beyonwiz can do about it.

Here's my attempt to work around it.

If you take a closer look you will find that this behaviour was codec and container dependent on the T-series. Sometimes it would update and sometimes it would not - both the file format as well as the video and audio encoding play a role.
