    Hi!

    I need an option to get the MP Windowhandle from within a plugin. Does anybody know how to get it - without using FindWindowEx or something like that?

    Have you tried...

    Process[] processes = Process.GetProcessesByName("MediaPortal");

    foreach (Process p in processes)

    {
    IntPtr pFoundWindow = p.MainWindowHandle;
    }

    Oh i'm sporry i forgot to say that i've solved it already. But there is a better way - when you use a plugin. You can use something like:

    Code:
    GUIWindow.form.Handle

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
