    Unfortunately bavarian is busy and no one else knows the skinning engine / focus handling good enough to be able to fix the issue.

    Thanks for the info tourettes. At least that pretty much confirms for those of us waiting for the fix that it won't be coming to 1.0.1. Ah well, Monochrome seems to be working pretty well and I've used the MovingPictures and MPTVSeries skins from StreamedMP, so not a total loss I guess. I sure miss that fanart in basichome though...:(

    I think the monochrome skin is not affected. I know Black&White is not affected and I think it supports nearly 100% of all plugins..

    I still use the streamed MP skin though. Im not bothered so often with a crash. maybe once a week at most.

    For me it's every time I use MP. I back out of plugins a lot I guess...

    Well at least two skins don't seem to be affected. I love StreamedMP, but I just can't keep using it if this problem persists. I'll go ahead and start configuring/using Monochrome and Black&White and see which I like better. Thanks.


    Why don't you use the standard home screen of StreamedMP? As far as I know the crashes happen only with basic home.

    Well, I guess because the BasicHome is more flexible and looks by far better than the standard home screen ;).

    Yesterday MP also crashed for me while Black & White 1080p was enabled after returning from TVSeries plugin. This happened after quite some time though, StreamedMP crashes a lot faster on my machine.

    Yeah the standard home just doesn't cut it for me. I've been using monochrome skin with skin files from SteamedMP for all other plugins. So far no issues. I'm going to mod monochrome to look at least halfway like StreamedMP, but not until this weekend.

    It will be my workaround till they fix the bug.

    I understand 1.0.1 has been delayed, but there seems to be no indication whatsoever whether this fix is going to be in that release afterall. Any ideas?

    Roadmap has been stuck at that for quite awhile now. ;) But as some people say, it's usually that last 10% that's the hardest to fix. :D

    Hrm. Looks like Bavarian took his name off the bug. That mean someone else is going to fix it, or will it indeed get pushed back?
