[QUOTE="JimCatMP, post: 951498, member: 103549"] Ojk, to fill in blanks. 1) My systems is set to autologin with the PLAYER ID, then run MePO, full screen, always on top, etc. 2) My systems has second account - MANAGER, I use to manage MePo & system via RDP. 3) Using MANAGER account via RDP I can manage and/or install MePo remotely (everything in management GUI and all tested plugins work 100% in RDP) The 'gotcha' here is as I have MePo set to autorun, after I have run the MePo Configuration in RDP session, I have to disable autostart for the user ID MANAGER before I log out - this is done via the run -> msconfig management console. If I forget this step, next time I login via RDP, MePo starts and it's a pain to get out of MePo cleanly. So, if managing your system locally is a pain (having spent lots of time on hands & knees in living room with face far to close to big screen for comfort, it can be!-), RDP is viable option. I also have (recently only) added a mini-keyboard with touch pad (to use on RaspberryPI when I get past the lego case and tinkering in python) for quick fixes. See <[url]http://www.maplin.co.uk/wireless-mini-keyboard-with-touchpad-for-media-centres-527078[/url]> for example, plenty of similar units on market. Cheers - JCMP [/QUOTE]
