Hi, I think I have found a bug concerning silent install / uninstall of MP. There is not yet a 1.9.0 Pre Release section so I post it here and you can move it when possible.

Anyway I am uninstalling MP with the swithes: package-mediaportal.exe /S /RemoveAll and get and error stating "Invalid file handle 32". I get the same message when installing with switch: package-mediaportal.exe /S. This was not the case with previous versions.

Hi, One minor thing came to my mind when updated this. All settings are not kept during upgrade. I have to set key assigments for my dinovo mini everytime when I do update MP. It might has been always like this and not a big problem really. Thanks a great job guys!

    It seems to be something to do with font installation. We haven't been able to work out exactly what triggers it yet, but you can click 'okay' and installation will continue.

    Yes, it does not affect the functionality of MP it seems, but it does to my ability to silently install it. However I found a temporary workaround using an autoit script wrapped as executable to look for this error message and close it when it appears. That way I will still have a zero touch installation.

    All settings are not kept during upgrade. I have to set key assigments for my dinovo mini everytime when I do update MP.
    Is that the keymap.xml?
    The old file should be in the backup folder made before the upgrade, so you can just copy the file across. Of course that's just a workaround...

    Yes that seems to be the keymap.xml. Thanks for info I copy it across. Should installer keep this file intact when using update option?
