[QUOTE="emphatic, post: 1285746, member: 24365"] This is something completely new for me. I've had this installation for a long time and the only thing I've change AFAIK, is installing MePo Tools. This is set to start on Windows start, and while it has been launching itself on top of MediaPortal (which hasn't been set to be always on top), pressing the MCE button on my Microsoft MCE remote has always gotten MediaPortal focused and everything worked. But, since yesterday or so, I've now had to connect to my HTPC with a remote keyboard (I'm using RealVNC) everytime I've restarted my HTPC to get MediaPortal to focus. This is of course not very wife friendly and of course, very annoying and unconvenient for me as well. I'm at my wits end here. I've even considered making a script set to autorun when MediaPortal's running that sends an ALT+TAB to focus the application, that's how desperate I'm becoming. ;) The only effect the MCE button has now, is starting MediaPortal (because of the app in the system tray) and returning to Basic Home once I've gotten MediaPortal to be focused once again. If it's not focused but running, the button does nothing! Could something have happened to my remote config file somehow? Could this be something sinister, like a key logger or other malware? Please help if you can. Emph [/QUOTE]
