Log attached with the correctly working MP. First turn off/on TV. Then turn off /on receiver.

WM_GETMINMAXINFO is coming in way too late in your scenario. Could you please log the window messages as well, so I can see if there is a better point beside relying on a following WM_GETMINMAXINFO.

Would like to avoid a hardcoded delay after a WM_DIPLAYCHANGE, even though some thread.sleep() of 1-2 seconds will work in all scenearios. Just don't like such hardcoded stuff. I prefer getting something from Window to tell me it's ready.

Can you install http://sourceforge.net/projects/windowdetective/ please and provide me with some message logs?

Me?

You, too.

I forgot to say that i have a perfectly working MP in both scenarios (no black screen)

i also retested build 4 and could get mp working after turning the receiver off/on (2 times)
Than i went to standby, but had the setting enabled "restart mp after standby"
so i changed this, restarted mp and went again to standby --> after that mp was showing the black screen with mouse, but could be restored by using the try symbol.
Happy debugging!

BUT2: I don;t want to have the size to 100%. Else i cannot read the letters on the screen in a browser from my sofa. On the otherhand i don;t want bigger letters in MP (Which sometimes happens, but is resolved after restarting MP)

Open a Mantis please. That should be fixable.

MP wrongly calculates the size of the font. It needs to compensate if stuff is larger/smaller than 100% because it tries to calculate the font size for skins based on hardcoded 576. Therefore no Windows font size settings should influence it (at least for what is rendered with D3D). Just another bug that might screw things up here as well.

Just need to adjust this magic number based on the percentage. At least that should be the easy way to fix this.

I think this one is inside MP for ages...

Suspending the system needs a similar treatment. MP tries to come back from the tray too early before Windows is ready in the correct resolution, therefore black screen.

When I found a way in regards to WM_DISPLAYCHANGE that works for all scenearios convered here, suspend/resume gets the same treatment.

Here you go with the log. Have fun, it seems huge! I shutdown TV twice, first time i had no MP shown after turn on. Not sure whether i forgot to restore it for example. Last one is receiver.

Hi,

I don't wanna sound like and wise-ass (too late ), but would it be abit easier if you guys use some remote program, like TeamViewer ..?

That how Scythe could join/collect logs/help install etc much more faster atleast..

Just an idea..
