I wonder if a button command must be executed when the cell has finished playing.
Scenario:
One PGC with 3 cells. Each cell has a cell still time of 3 seconds.
Each cell has also a big, transparent button with a LinkTailPGC command. (The force select and force action buttons values are both 0, and the action delay is -1, the defaults.)
On my Sony, everything works as expected: if I don't click a button, each cell is played for 3 seconds, and after that, the post commands are executed. If I click a button, its LinkTailPGC command is executed, followed by the post commands.
On my KISS, it's very different. The first cell is played for 3 seconds, and then, the playback continues directly with the post commands. Seems the button command is executed, even if I don't activate it.
I have fixed the KISS problem by adding 2 cell commands. On cell 1, the command is LinkCN cell 2, and on cell 2, LinkCN cell 3. Now, the KISS plays cell 1, 2 and 3 in sequence, but doesn't continue automatically with the post commands when cell 3 is over! I suppose that adding a LinkTailPGC on cell 3 will fix this problem, too, but I haven't tried it yet.
Hence my question. What is the correct behaviour? Since the KISS is a strange and somewhat bad player, I think I must trust my Sony, but I'll appreciate a confirmation. Thanks in advance.
