    Confirmed this is a porblem with SVN 15546 15568, also there is a Virtual memory leak which is possibly associated with this. hit over 300k VM in five hours while MP was idle.

    Problem is that I have already backrev to prev SVN as this is not only a test machine and
    this is a really annoying bug. So impossible for me to get a log now. Otherwise it would have
    been attached it previously.

    Sorry.

    I think it should be marked higher than "trivial". a bug that causes the entire screen to show the wrong colour and is effectively cause by you doing nothing. no workaround? can't edit a skin XML file to show a black bitmap or something?

    Agree. For me it is a showstopper. I backrev to previous svn.

    Ok, thanks much. I will look into the instructions above. For the moment, I turned off the "Automatic channel logo update" in Settings (which somehow I had missed, I think because it wasn't an option previously), and the deleted everything in the Flat-default folder and populated it with my own logos. Works, so far.

    It is present, but not with that name. It is called Scheduler, viz: Interesting. I had never noticed that when the "command" is "ACTION", the "cmdproperty" is the actual window id, but it makes sense that it is. Try this for yourself.
