    Did you make this screenshot locally on your desktop? Or are you connected using Remote Desktop or similar?

    The task bar doesn't look transparent, like Aero is disabled.

    @breese any more information? As this happens only for some users and not for others we need to find out the differences.

    Please see my question above

    @morpheus_xx I think I have this figured out (well, for me at least)
    I do use TeamViewer a lot. It turns out if you log into the machine local and later also use TeamViewer to connect to it, you must completely disconnect from Teamviewer AND log off at the local machine and back on to get Aero to re-enable.
    I did this twice to verify....
    So, Focus does work properly at the local machine... :)

    Great news! @Lehmden, I think you also experienced focus issues? Do you also use TeamViewer or similar software?

    Hi.
    No, I didn't use Teamviewer when getting Focus issues. With the new Build the Issue on Start seems to be gone. But I haven't got enough time now to install it on my whole infrastructure. Especially the server is busy. And as I don't have any TV at all using new build with "regular" Alpha4 Server I didn't tried to upgrade other systems yet.

    The other focus issues are definitely still there. I think when you enter a screen the focus is set to the "hidden" mouse cursor not to an list or menu entry. That's why people using mouse (like you) don't encounter any focus issues...

    Regarding this issue I modified Titanium skin this weekend, so focusing the hidden menu buttons is no longer possible. This fix is not yet included in any other build.

    I think we slowly hunting down more and more of this kind of problems :)

    Hi.
    BTW is there any way to test new SlimTV Client with MPExtended? As I can't use TVE3.5 on regular basis yet I need to run MP1 TV Server permanently. So I'm in a need for a MPE Version of the Client plugin.

    @breese , I also get this issue, and I use remote admin 3.5 to connect to my server.
    I normally just need to push the green button (launch MP) on my remote to bring the focus back.

    Nevermind, I think. I found them in the forum. I had only checked the main webiste for MP2 plugins. https://www.team-mediaportal.com/extensions/mp2-plugins I hope these work: Featured Plugins

    Perhaps... Only way to confirm would be for me to invest in a different USB DVB-S2 tuner (like the Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-S2), which I might do if the issue persists.

    Are different people taking turns watching the same thing on the same HTPC? For me, separating users in MP2 is a drawback, as is the interface. Simply put, this can't be done in MP1, or rather, it can't be done quickly, because everything would have to be rewritten. But if each user logs in with their own Windows account, MP1 can...

    Ok, thanks much. I will look into the instructions above. For the moment, I turned off the "Automatic channel logo update" in Settings (which somehow I had missed, I think because it wasn't an option previously), and the deleted everything in the Flat-default folder and populated it with my own logos. Works, so far.
