I don't have mediaportal 2, so I have no idea how long it takes to load etc, can always use splash screen replacement for OS: startup/suspend/resume. Maybe MP2 client config will have an option where it changes your OS splash screens to MP2.
I think you won't see the splash screen for more than 5 seconds (for me <2 sec)I don't have mediaportal 2, so I have no idea how long it takes to load
I would like to use the "Orange on standard" (Orange MP2 logo on Titanium background) in 1920x1080 resolution. I will try to add the settings, or only replace the default splash screen.
