[MP1-4739] ALT-Enter to switch from full to windowed screen stopped working in V1.13.0 Pre (2 Viewers)

[perky]

See JIRA issue MP1-4739.

Just updated to V1.13.0 Pre, it appears ALT-Enter doesn't work any more for switching screen modes (full to windowed). I'm not sure if this is related to Microsoft MCE being replaced. Anyone else have the same problem?
Mark.

Doesn't work in 1.13 final either. I use it a lot, so I'm gonna go with 1.12 until its fixed.

Should not have anything to do with the MCE handler changes.

Odd, I just tested it and it works for me.
Never used that before BTW. That Mini TV mode is just really cool. I did not know MP could do that. This app is just fantastic, 3 years later I'm still discovering functionalities, thanks to you guys

So back on topic. I have no idea what could be going on.
I suggest you do some head scratching of your own, check your logs, check your keyboard mapping (not HID), check if Alt+Enter is working in other apps that could be using it.
By all means, if it's a show-stopper for you, feel free to stick to 1.12 until someone identifies the problem and finds a fix.

Any ideas from @Testers or @Developers maybe?

I started MP1.13 final and pressed alt-enter, nothing happened. So I exited and checked the log, this is what I found:

Could this be an indicator?

Very odd, that could indeed be the cause of your problems. Can you post the full logs, with extended HID logs enabled. Do use our Watchdog.
Then try disabling the HID handler and confirm that Alt+Enter is working again.
It could be that this exception is interrupting our workflow thus preventing the keyboard handler to do its job.

You could also try the HID demo application and tell us if you can reproduce the issue when hitting Alt+Enter.

I can not confirm it.

@ravenrocks Can you try that build and tell me if it fixes your ALT+ENTER issue.
Please provide the logs of you results. Please also do try out the HID demo I linked above and provide screenshots of your results.
Do show me the list of HID devices you have, it should look like that:

I'm trying to figure out what could be the root cause of your problem. It most likely comes as a side effect from some sort of HID/USB devices you have connected to your PC, remote receiver, mouse, keyboard, gamepads, joystick, headset, audio DAC, any USB device really. I'll need the references from those devices.

@perky Please do confirm you have indeed the same issue by looking in your logs. Then try going through the same exercise to figure what does your setup has in common with @ravenrocks
The build I provided above just consolidates MP to better cope with the problem but we need to understand where it's coming from so that we get a better more complete and definitive fix for it.

Maybe not related, but we have the fullscreen option in MP config and if enable the switch between windowed <-> fullscreen will not work :

The 'Keep MediaPortal fullscreen mode ......'
