 Niels | Apparently we have a websocket event called "UserDataChanged" that will notify if items change (like favorite state or playback state). We could theoretically use it to make screens show live information | 20:51:33 |
 dkanada | it's been planned for literal ages | 20:51:58 |
| dkanada | technically we already support it for certain home sections on web | 20:52:11 |
| Niels | I thought web just reloads all data every few seconds? | 20:52:28 |
| dkanada | hmmm it might ping the endpoints yeah | 20:54:17 |

 okankaya | so guys what do you think about this feature | 18:00:59 |
| okankaya | https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-androidtv/issues/561 | 18:01:45 |
| okankaya | Basically I think I would like to add, play with button next to play button | 18:02:12 |
| okankaya | on the screen where we see episode | 18:02:20 |
| okankaya | of a show | 18:02:25 |
 thornbill | I don't think trying to integrate more tightly with external players is a good long-term plan for us... too easy for external apps to change things and break the experience | 18:08:16 |
| okankaya | yeah but currently, Some files I can only play with vlc, and some only with mxplayer and after adding codecs for mx player, I usually use that one | 18:09:36 |
| okankaya | I believe it would take a lot, a lot time to come to state of vlc or mx player with codecs especially | 18:10:28 |
| okankaya | * I believe it would take a lot, a lot time to come to state of vlc or mx player with codecs especially | 18:10:51 |
| thornbill | What if the button was only displayed if external player had already been chosen as the media player type? | 19:21:50 |
| okankaya | yeah that sounds good. I already prepared the button and players for it, I thought it would just work now as I thought changing user preference for player would be enough but it is not | 19:37:41 |
| okankaya | I got some strange bug, of course it needs more work | 19:38:29 |

| dkanada | Niels after three days of fighting with custom targets for glide, I can confirm placeholders work with crossfades :] | 10:57:33 |
| dkanada | I knew it should have worked almost immediately after because I tried with a normal bitmap target and got a smooth transition | 10:58:11 |
| dkanada | the rest was just torture, but all is well now | 10:58:29 |
| Niels | Awesome! what was the issue? | 11:11:01 |
| dkanada | a combination of several, one of which was only exposed after I bumped the version from 3.8 -> 4.11 | 11:29:11 |
| dkanada | 3.8 was released in May of 2017 lol | 11:29:29 |
| Niels | oof | 11:29:58 |
| dkanada | yeah, that's why I was putting it off for so long X) | 11:30:33 |
| dkanada | still have to replace some deprecated constructors | 11:30:56 |
 MrTimscampi | Should've forked it, put it in your sources and patch it yourself, like the real developers Luke do | 11:32:18 |
