[QUOTE="zunixnuz, post: 327734, member: 62883"] [b]Some Workarounds ....[/b] I had following problems with the original HD_Starter.exe: - I did not need "Key forwarding" because i use a iMON VFD Infrared (MCE Mode) which should be able to handle PowerDVD controls - iMON VFD Infrared (only in MCE Mode!) did not work after starting of PowerDVD (7.3) -> I had to restart iMON Manager (Version 7.40) - After "Play" in PowerDVD, iMON VFD Infrared didn't work again -> I had to restart iMON Manager again - Mouse cursor was always in the middle of the screen and did not hide automatically - BzHider did not work with Vista - Exit of PowerDVD did not work because remote control uses "Delete" key - After going back to MediaPortal, CybrDisplay Plugin (Mini Display Plugin) did not work => Because of this i made a new HD_Starter.exe which solves all my problems, now it does following: Start sequence... 1) Close MediaPortal 2) Activate ATI profile with hotkey CTRL+SHIFT+4 (24Hz) 3) Start PowerDVD 7 or 8 in fullscreen 4) Restart iMON Manager 5) Hide mouse cursor (move it to upper right corner) Continuous... X) Keep PowerDVD always in front X) If "Play" (Key [Enter]) is pressed, restart iMON Manager after 10sec Exit sequence: X) Keys "Esc" or "Delete" or "Backspace" or "browser_back" start exit sequence 1) Stop playback in PowerDVD 2) Close PowerDVD 3) Activate ATI profile with hotkey CTRL+SHIFT+5 (50Hz) 4) Start MediaPortal Maybe some of my solutions, eg. hide of mouse cursor or self check which version of PowerDVD is installed, will help other users to fix some problems or optimize something ;) I have also integrated some "Error Messages" which can be useful if something did not work correctly.
