PiBox » VideoFE

If the config file is there then videofe uses the value found there to switch to first, then back to vt2.

If the config file is not there then it switches to vt2 and then vt3. That's likely the problem.

I've copied a fixed version of videofe to both server and player. Now checking if this fix works.

Using the videofe.cfg file and setting the terminal vt to 4 works. If I hard code this instead without a videocfg.txt then it fails.

Researching....

It seems to be a timing issue. I added a 500ms delay between vt switches and then another after the last switch before a new xrefresh (meaning I do two xrefreshes now). The first video I played went to a blank screen for a few seconds, then came back. Subsequent video playback/quit sequences worked just fine with no delays.

Leaving these changes in as they seem to work okay on the server. Testing on the client now.

Verified changes work on both server and client. All changes committed and pushed upstream.

Closing issue.
