When in Fullscreen view control of MP freezes. Specifically:
TV Fullscreen: the TV continues to play fine, but all controls (remote and keyboard) are in-operative. So no stop, pause, EPG, channel changing etc. I have to either terminate the MP process in Task manager (difficult as you can only see it flicking on the TV picture) or normally do a hard shutdown on the pwr button.
Video Fullscreen: the video plays fine, but again the controls become in-operative. So no pause, stops, skip etc. Even when the film gets to the end of the film, I'm left with a black screen, rather than returning to the MyVideos list. To restore I have to use the same procedure as for the TV problem.
Music Fullscreen Vizualisation: Use the normal WMP vizualisation the screen eventually freezes. In this case the music also stops. Accessing task manager is simple in this case - and I can kill the process. The Watchdog logs for this instance are enclosed (getting logs for the other two is very difficult, as I normally can only do a hard shutdown.
Time: There seems to be no set time for these errors to occur. I can be watching TV/Video fine for a couple of hours before these errors occur. Other times it has occured in 10 minutes. However, these problems happen 99% of the time - its just a matter of time!
I only have MyTV Series plugin; I've disabled screensaving and all my graphics and TV driveres are bang up to date. All help very welcome
