DVD Autostart - lost focus ? (1 Viewer)

[sylvio2000]

Hi, I already searched in the forum but found nothing useful.
I did a clean install of XP onto my HTPC. I installed MP 0.2.3.0 RC2, everytime I insert a DVD, a menu pops up and ask me if I would like to start this DVD.
But I cant navigate anymore inside MP, so MP lost its focus because of the autostart popup of Windows (in the background).
So I decided to disable the autostart of Windows (registry).
Now there is no popup in Windows anymore, BUT there is no autostart in MP, too?

It seems that MP uses the autostart feature of Windows, but what should I do now? If I enable the autostart of Windows I loose the focus of MP when inserting a DVD, but if I disable it I have no autostart inside MP.

I hope there is someone who can help me

I have no problems here. What I do is:

- Set Windows to take no action (don't disable autorun, just set noaction on window pupup).
- Set MP to be always on top.

That might help.

Thanks for your answer.

But if I set Windows to take no action (in the popup), iI think it just remembers this setting for this specific DVD/CD?
MP is already set to be on top.

edit:
I tested this, but as I said, this is only for this specific disc.
