Video Storm PIP pauses Kodi & Disney Plus

I wasn’t sure if anyone else has experienced this issue but if I happen to be watching either Kodi or Disney Plus, and I send PIP to my Nvidia Shield (NetplayTV), it pauses the app. I don’t see this happening with Netflix, Amazon Video, YouTube, or Live Channels (HDHomeRun). Currently each Shield is using a Video Storm IRUSB (Version 2.1 ) with Chowmains driver.

 

The reason I’d like the “pausing” to stop is because I have programming that sends PIP whenever BlueIris triggers an alert when someone has crossed a detection zone. It works well... just a pain in the butt if you’re watching Disney plus or Kodi.

 

Which brings me to what I thought would be a possible solution in the absence of a fix. I thought a workaround would be for me to populate a variable whenever I selected Kodi or Disney Plus, and if that variable is “true”, representing that I’m watching either App, do not send the PIP to the TVs. Just send it to the T3 for that room. However... it doesn’t appear that the Mini Apps store status when selected. Not that I can tell.

 

Thoughts or recommendations welcomed.
