[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1171763, member: 109222"] Hi. In general this type of Software is designed mainly for usage with a remote. You can use the mouse ofc. But most likely you also need a keyboard then for some functionality. How the mouse buttons are working depends on the skin you are using. Maybe a different skin fits better to your needs. Try "ESC" button on keyboard... It should do the same than the back button on remote. Be patient! The guide (as any other OSD) disappears automatically after a few seconds, but it did not if you continue to move the mouse and/or press tons of buttons... The bar is an indicator how far you have gone into the video. It is not a navigation button and never was meant for this... You can use skip steps and/or ff/rw to navigate in the video. As told, mouse is not the primary input device on any HTPC software, even WMC did not work this way... With mouse only? No way... Not a new concept but there is tons of software out there that did not use a mouse at all. Being designed for Windows did not automatically mean designed for mouse... To me it looks as if you are looking for a simple media player more than for a full blown HTPC solution. [/QUOTE]
