Hi again Stephen Blue screens are almost always caused by driver or hardware problems so Aaron's advice is good in my opinion. Software can also trigger BSODs if they utilise the hardware in a way that the driver programmers didn't expect, so in what situation are you getting the BSOD? mm

Hi luci5r :) Think your best option would be the MultiShortcut plugin. https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/multishortcut-521/multishortcut-plugin-75305/ You can basically follow the same principle as in this very old post: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/multishortcut-521/screensaver-home-basichome-51175/

I can't find the link anymore, but ISTR that this has to do with having old versions lying around. Delete them and the problem should go away. All of the research I have done suggests that there is no reliable way to do this, apart from logging in as Administrator, or disabling UAC prompts completely (neither of which I recommend!)...

Hi Mike HDMI handshaking (and all that low level stuff) are not things that MP has any direct control over. It is completely in the domain of the video card driver, the switcher (if one is used), and the device on the other end of the cable. I know very little about dealing with HDMI problems but I have heard of "EDID overriding"...

Yes. What is interesting is that, If I play externally with PDVD or TMT the Receiver lights DTS-HD. If I change the renderer to the MP-Audio Redenrer it does DTS-HD from MPt but then it generates a buzzing sound when paused and when attempt to play another file it does not play.

Re: 1.1.3 - playing video always starts in small-screen, and won't resume from X:Y of Can you be more specific...? Is there a config option that affects this? This affects all videos, even ones that resumed fine in 1.1.2. Maybe I should just do a full uninstall of 1.1.2 and reinstall 1.1.3 and try again. Thanks!
