Still not working for me, just reverts back to "Home"setting. Is there some other setting I should be looking at?

Have you checked "show last active module when resuming from standby"?
You will find this in the mp configuration/general/startup and resume settings.

Cheers,

Rico

Thanks Rico, yep, got that checked but still no luck. I set mpstartit to TV, live TV and hit OK, when I go straight back in it is set back to Home.

I've tried rebooting after making the change and toggling the "show last active module when resuming from standby" option.

It might be worth a mention that this is a machine recently upgraded to Windows 8 with a fresh install of MP 1.3 Alpha. I also tried earlier versions of MP startit before stumbling across this version.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same problem than Chris but with MP 1.3 Beta.
Does someone have a solution?

Many thanks, Micha

Same problem described by Chris and mwagenknecht. MPStartIt plugin resets itself always to "Home" in the config panel. I'm using 1.3RC!

I found a section in MediaPortal.xml:

<section name="MPStartIt"> <entry name="idToStart">0</entry> <entry name="parentId">-1</entry> </section>

Can anyone tell the ID of TVGuide screen and FullscreenTV? Maybe I can manually edit the xml file.

Thanks Tony! I try out and report back.

Edit:
Excellent... it works! Just change 0 to 1 for fullscreen tv or 600 for tv guide. Thanks again!
