    If "Auto-create TV/Video Thumbs" on Configuration is disabled, no thumbs are shown in My Videos even if there already exist cached thumbs.
    This patch fixes this issue.

    Your patch I pretty valid as the implementation of the video thumbs itself is not very sophisticated.
    It would be better to have:
    - separate settings for recording and video thumbs
    - vital methods like SetThumbnails not doing "heavy" work
    - a dedicated class keeping a list of non-cached thumb files (mainly to avoid heavy IO load and re-launching a failed mtn.exe _every_ time you enter a directory)
    Until then your little fix will help to get the video thumbs back - thx!

And Hostname is still in red. I don't understand - this is a dedicated TV computer. Unless an update did this I don't know why there's a problem in the...

    I uninstalled MP, made sure no sub folders were left n any programmes folders, changed the computer name, rebooted, installed MP and set logs and rebooted and ran TVServer. Didn't do anything in regard to S Loopback adapter. I've been using NextPvr since the problem became insurmountable. Only reason it's not a good long term...

    MP1 MP2 MP2 - V2.4.1 Resume playback from DE
    Ok, thanks for the User Management tip - I now get what I would expect. Now all I have to do is to figure out how to make Auto Login do what it says on the tin. The only way to make it work is to manually log in each time. Any hints as to what I'm missing with the login system?
