[QUOTE="ohdarklord, post: 55203, member: 17624"] I dont know if Ive put this in the right place, so if its in the wrong place could a mod move it please. now onto MP launcher. I was planning on setting up media portal as the windows shell but a few things stood in my way [list] I needed to have some programs started when the computer came on so i could use my remote I needed to have access to the media portal configiration so i could update to the newest svn I dont have a keyboard on my htpc so i need to be able to use a mouse only for configiration. [/list] So i decided to put my visual basic knowledge to good use and i made MP launcher [img]http://static.flickr.com/71/153289219_58bac608c4.jpg[/img] As soon as it starts it runs all the programs i need to get my remote working and it starts media portal and when I exit media portal I have access to all the programs i need. So all I need to do is use this as the shell and i get more conntrol than i get with just media portal on its own. The only bad thing is I coded it to suit my own htpc But im more than willing to make a fully customisable version if people are intreasted (and it doesnt need to be orange:) ) [/QUOTE]
