Hello there. I was having the same problem (solution at #4). I have a two screen setup, computer monitor and a lcd tv. I wanted to mediaportal to be invisible when using the computer, and I had to install couple of programs to get it work right.
1) MCE replacement plugin + registry tweak.
Had to install this so I could use MCE remote when MP is not active and disabled regular MCE remote support because it controlled only the active application, in my case Firefox used by someone on the computer.
2) Ultramon
It was pretty annoying for PC users to see MP blinking on the taskbar, so I used Ultramon's feature called smart taskbar. Now both desktops have their own taskbars.
3) CursorLock
This little program prevents mouse cursor from going to second monitor. Start it with /S -switch to lock it and /U -switch to unlock.
4) Ardamax Mouse Wheel Control
When ever MP stole focus from Firefox and someone was scrolling with the mouse, MP skipped two minutes forward/backward. With this program I can replace wheel scrolling with keypresses. I configured up and down scrolls to insert-button, which does nothing on my MP configuration. Works like a charm, no skipping!
I also had the f**king skips. They only occured when playing video (tv/video/series/...) in MP.
Now, after disabling the mouse wheel with Ardamax and running it for half a week, I have to report that there are no more skips. Sometimes the cursor appears and the IMON display chnages for a short time, which shows me that MP wanted to do a skip, but the video keeps playing correctly.
It seems like my wireless mouse sends a mouse wheel event / my pc receives an event caused by whatever (mobile phone???).
Hi
This is a general question about OnX.
I have been using the TvWishList plugin for a while and have recently updated (update install) from MP 1.36 x86 to 1.37 x86 and found there seemed to be no Onx menu in the TV guide. I then configured the onx.presets.xml file like I would normally do with updates or fresh installs, but still...

I am running a Xubuntu machine as a server with all my movies and series on it, I run a VirtualBox VM with Windows 10 installed on the virtual machine and MP1 client installed on that.
MP runs fine on the VM but I no longer have a tv tuner to test if passthrough is possible. I don't think it would work anyway.
