I would like to have a feature in the configuration > General; That enables the user to dissable the basic home screen, as I rarely use it.

I know its trivial but it would be another nice touch!!

Hi, if you go to mediaportal config, in the general section there is an option to use basic home... just deselect it!

This is what i was wanting to stop happening as its frustrating when you press the green button too many times or because media portal is being slow and you end up on the basic home screen.

I was just wondering is there is any way to completly disable it??

Yeah I tried that long before i posted, all its does is start MP in the basic home and not disable it!!

I would like to disable it completly so it doesn't show up at all. The only time i have ever used basic home is with spinsafe, which is nice by the way, but i use the tv server now and it not supported, and if it was i would probably want to dissable the regular home screen!

Is this a feature that can be added to the config??

you could save the standard home.xml over the basichome.xml so that it loads the same thing.

This is a great idea i can't believe i didn't think of it myself!!:mad: :D

I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.

Are different people taking turns watching the same thing on the same HTPC? For me, separating users in MP2 is a drawback, as is the interface. Simply put, this can't be done in MP1, or rather, it can't be done quickly, because everything would have to be rewritten. But if each user logs in with their own Windows account, MP1 can...
