1.1.9 Release:
Fixed several Remote Control Navigation and UX issues.
Added Binge-Watching custom overlay that checks your watch history and asks if you want to "Resume Where I Left Off" or "Start from the Beginning" when playing a TV show.
Added Collections page and Movies details overlay.
Thank you for implementing Collections. When I chose collections it includes shows that have all been viewed and deleted.
I love the improvements I'm seeing Bobby
Morris
I'll add better sorting for next week. Thanks.
Give me an idea of how you would like the collections to display and be sorted. Do you want the watched ones to not display when viewing the collections or just to have the ability to skip the watched ones? I only use collections for my grandkids movies so they can watch their movies one after the other in order. You know how kids are, they can watch the same thing 20 times. Give me an idea of how you use the collections. Thanks.
No dice on the Win11 machine. If it helps, I see this happening in Task Manager, like it's trying to start two of them at once until they start to cancel each other out like resonance and ultimately both close:

On the Win10 machine, I gave it a quick look and saw that collections were set up as rows instead of just continuing downward like TV Shows, which I'm more used to from a Channels UX perspective. And then in the rows, it was missing navigation arrows left/right like you have elsewhere when that is used, so I had to use touch to navigate.
For Collections I like them sorted by most recently updated. There is no reason to show a folder that has no recordings to show. I'm not a collector so I delete after viewing. Providing sorting options is probably best as others will probably want a different order.
Thank you,
Morris
If you close them both out, does it try to start up 2 again? Could you look in Event Viewer and see if the Application Logs have any errors related to it? Specifically .NET Runtime errors? Thanks.
Also, look of rogue mpv.exe instances running in Task Manager and exit them as well.

They are opening and closing too fast for a human to react as what I showed above happens instantly and multiple times.
Nothing like that, unfortunately!
I just released v1.2.0. This release is mainly a bug fix that fixes 2 issues, older CPU's not loading mpv-2.dll and Collections View display issue. I will have more updates for Collections on the next release, including sorting.
I added the version number on the Settings page and fixed a windowed view bug as well.
The next release will have changes in the Recordings page that allows for finding and viewing upcoming content.
To exit full screen, press the f key and it will toggle to a windowed view.
I will add a light theme at some point in the future, after I finish with all the layout changes.
I'm having a problem with channel changes. I can watch a channel (doesn't matter what channel), but if I stop that channel and try another one, I either get a blank screen or a frozen picture of what's on that channel, but the timer runs as if a video is showing. This happens on both CDVR servers I run, on separate PCs, so I don't believe it's a server issue. Is there a log file for Nucleus that I can check for errors? Thanks.
@daldana7296 I'll look into it. What source seems to be the issue? TVE, OTA, FAST channels, etc. You can use the channels DVR logs to see what transpired during failed tunes.
It happens on any combination of channels, 1st channel can be TVE, OTA, or FAST, 2nd channel can also be any one of those. The CDVR log doesn't show any error, it shows the normal statistics and buffer entries as if the 2nd channel is playing, but it's not.
I'm viewing on a Windows 11 laptop and both servers are also Windows 11.
I'll test it out over the next few days. Thanks.
V 1.1.9 and 1.2.0 will not launch. When I try and launch it there is a spinning wheel for a moment and then nothing. I get the following envents in Event log:

It looks like the Kestrel server failed to bind to port 55001 and caused a crash. I'm actually not using the Kestrel server yet. I'll change it to disable if port conflict found. You may be able to run it if the port is available now. Would you look in Task Manager see if there it is running in the background and if it isn't, try to run the app again and see if it works.
I don't see it and all is the same. Before posting I'd tried restarting and also uninstall and install.
Thanks for trying. One last question, what CPU is your PC using?
My CPU is an I9-1300K
@daldana7296 @Morris_Altman Would y'all install this test release and see if it fixes the issues you are having?
I removed the Kestrel Server which should fix your issue, Morris.
I improved the way the channels are closed out when tuning a new one, which should improve the issue you see daldana.
Let me know if it works, please and thank you for the help.
