[bug] Autosearch in a tab stops when closing another tab #18

Open nickkolok opened 5 years ago

nickkolok commented 5 years ago

Version: 5.0.6 (official)

Environment: Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit, compiz, Unity

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open two tabs
  2. Run autotracker in one of the tabs
  3. Switch to another tab or close another tab by right-clicking on the tabs name
  4. Return to the first tab

Autotracker will be paused, however, there will be no Start button, only Stop button.

Workaround: click the Stop button and the Start button appears. Click the Start button and the autotracker resumes.

This is certainly a bug.

IMHO, the autotracker shouldn't be paused when a user switches to another tab.

Probably related to your next feature req post. Autotracking depends on the video stepping and that I think is what is being paused. Thanks for pointing it out.
