Cannot resume playback after pausing

if I pause playback, the majority of the time I cannot resume playback - I have to close the window and restart the show from the main interface.

I’m on latest Sonoma Mac m1 ultra studio with latest infuse and directly connected to the files on an external hard drive.

Just to make sure could you provide the version number of Infuse and the MacOS?

Is this happening with PiP or the main Infuse window?

infuse pro Version 7.7.4 (7.7.4818)
Sonoma 14.4.1 (23E224)

its not pip but the main window

Just to cover all of the bases, could you update to 7.7.5 and see if it still happens?

So it’s not Jellyfin/Emby/File problem, it’s an infuse problem, just to make it clear, I went back to the latest 7.7.3 and everything is fine (start play/pause/resume wise) on MacOS.
Also I can see that playback on iOS is very choppy on almost all media files… something changed in iOS, I’m using 17.5 RC right now. Other players playback fine. Could fireCore please fix the app? It’s pretty silly that everytime something is added, some basic stuff is being broken… please.

Hi, I have the same problem! It’s been going for a 1-2 months now.

Resume does not work all the time. Sometimes it does, sometime it doesn’t.

Infuse Pro Version 7.8 (7.8.4860) running on Sonoma 14.5 on M2 Sillicon

Tell me guys, cos I have an idea, first thing I turned off is Dolby Vision in the settings, this seems to help a lot. Another thing, I haven’t had this problem when sound output is via Mac Speakers, it happens very ofter when I have my AirPods Pro connected. Can you try these? Maybe this will help @James pinpointing the actual problem… I’ve been struggling with this for a lot of time now…

@RadekB I’ve disabled Dolbi Vision, and using Macbook speakers. The issue is still there unfortunately.

+1 this is happening to me in 4K HDR videos. I have Dolby Vision disabled due to it’s flickering issues.

Any update on a fix for this as it’s also happening to me

it’s been several months if not years, other players have no problem, started using the Emby application, at least playback/pause is working…
Too bad that the Infuse team instead of trying to fix video playback, they’re working on new features forgetting about problems they have. Almost none of the problem I reported ever got fixed… and that’s bad. Really bad.

I don’t care about Spatial Audio, I don’t care about Dolby Vision, I just want a player that you can Pause playback, come back after 3 minutes and resume without any waiting, latest update broke this on the iOS, Mac na AppleTV… furthermore, it seems that when an episode ends and you click Next Episode, player seems to go to the end of the episode but never opens the next one… what a disappointment lately…

7.8.1 fixed this issue for me, give that a try.
