whilst watching movies etc when the stream loses its connection it searches to re establish but on reconnecting it goes back to the sta rt of the movie rather than offer me a " resume " box , i may have clicked something . Is there an option to enable the Resume box or is it random ?
Resume ?
- Thread starter Joe reid
- Start date
It is sort of random, at least in my experience. If the drop in connection between XBMC and the server hosting the file is just for a moment, the video normally seems to resume happily enough. If (for example) my internet actually goes down, then by the time sync is re-achieved, the movie restarts completey.
Hmmm, I wonder if a change in IP address could cause this? If you want to double check, load up http://whatismyip.com on your phone/tablet (assuming it is on the same WiFi network) at the start of a film. If the film pauses then restarts completely, reload the website and see if your IP address has changed. I could see how an IP address change might force a restart.
Ah, a new message has been posted. I could be repeating what others have said.
