I’m having a little issue since I updated Anki a while ago. (the update that made MPV controls available) And since then my Anki keeps on crashing in very specific scenarios: scenario 1 : If I play a video from an Anki card and toggle to another window, when the video is over, Anki crashes and I lo…

I actually tried the new version now, so yes same - it crashes (Anki, not a video player.) [Capture] And now I faced a new problem. I can’t install the old version because of error :joy: [3] Okay, actually I solved this problem with installing Anki in another directory. and I can’t reply to th…

@dae thank you, I’ll try to do what I can. @influencia @mysaturnday thank you, that was very helpful. I could reproduce the issue with mpv video player on Windows when Anki is no longer responding and can only be closed with the Task Manager. I could reproduce it with the packaged mpv version and …

Thank you, that fix works! There is another problem with the new player: it doesn’t respond to shorcated buttons. Sometimes it can only respond to “space” but sometimes it just “passes” the actual cart, and what’s more, after switching to a new card, it doesn’t close automatically. The problem is a…

Sorry, I didn’t think about the hotkeys and the hotkeys won’t work with “Video Fix 1”.

The “q” button can be used to close the video player, but the…

I would like to use the old version, but it causes errors in sync media with my iPhone, - that what this discussion started about 1 month ago :sweat_smile: . Also, the new hotkeys(media player binded) doesn’t work every time you press it. Seem like we have nothing to do with it for now, and just…

Maybe install 2.1.34-alternate for now as mplayer doesn’t seem to cause the freezing issue. [just a picture] About media sync, I’d recommend to watch new intro videos about syncing. [image] New intro videos Site Feedback Hi all, I’ve started working on some new intro v…

@kelciour Apologies for the naive questions, I have not been following closely. Is this issue limited to videos? Does it occur if a new mpv process is started each time? If yes to both those questions, perhaps we could work around the issue by loading a new mpv process when a video file is encounter…

@dae Yes and yes, the issue seems to be limited to videos and I can’t reproduce it after starting a new mpv process each time. I haven’t thought about it and that was very helpful. Thank you! I’ll do it.

@kelciour this sounds similar to Tons of images missing in Anki Iphone - if you have any ideas your input would be appreciated as usual
