Disable Trick Play
Hello, I have this code that will play my Pre-roll read from an xml file, then play the show after that. I want to disable trick play for the pre-roll part only.
what would I change below to disable trick play for pre-roll and keep trick play for the regular show? I use the videoplayer code and this is from videoscreen.brs

Re: Disable Trick Play
I tried all day to get this to work and no luck. My meta tag from xml is called preplay1 and all works with trick mode, but wanted to see if I could disable the preplay1 or pre roll. Any hints? I saw the Blog many times and tried to make it work, but...

Re: Disable Trick Play
As long as you're using roVideoScreen, you can't disable trick play. You need to use roVideoPlayer with either an roImageCanvas or roScreen.
