[QUOTE="mdg78, post: 490829, member: 88906"] Hi, I just wanted to share my so far brief experience with Hulu Desktop. Hopefully, my experience may help someone avoid a little bit of problems in the future. First, let me say this is working wonderfully for me. I have almost no problem with the picture quality or tearing, so I am very happy. Once set up, which is not too long, it runs great. My first problem was a very stupid error on my part, I was a little eager to get this going, and when I installed Mutishortcut plugin, I didn't copy over the language files. This was stupid on my fault and took me about 3 tries of getting the error message to realize my idiocy. (ie. I didn't read the instructions) My second problem was focus, and I fixed that by the check box in the general settings of MP config, as others have mentioned previously. And my last problem took me some (though not too long) to figure out. Hopefully this will help others in the future. I have an IMON VFD in my case, and it has an IMON pad remote with the IR control. My problem was that when MP switched to Hulu, Hulu would initially take focus, but if I tried to use the remote, all subsequent keypresses would be read in MP even though Hulu was on top. After some trial and error, I realized that if I navigated through MP then to Hulu with a keyboard, all worked fine until I hit the first button on the remote. Then, it would switch "keyboard focus" (not sure if that's the right term, but you should understand what I'm getting at) back to MP but leave Hulu as the topmost window. I thought it was a minidisplay plugin problem, but nothing seemed to fix it there. I even disabled it, as well as IRSS to try to get the remote to control Hulu. What I finally found was in the IMON manager software, there was a setting under the IMON Utilities tab/Application Launch for "Exclusive Mode". I unchecked this and all works perfectly now. (I have MP set up as my quick launch button on the remote, so that is where this comes in). I now have Hulu set up as a program in the Imon software, and the remote keypresses act to control Hulu. Hope this helps someone save a little time, sorry if the post was a little rambling, Michael [/QUOTE]
