[QUOTE="shewless, post: 91832, member: 25362"] well.. I use the "spawn" method so that MP is still running in the background (ie the external display still works, and someday I hope the music will still play). [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/MediaPortal_Setup_Plugins_MyPrograms?highlight=%28myprograms%29[/url] (PC apps as a background app) I had it working regularly before but I deleted that setup in favour of the spawn method. Note that in the file launch window there is NO startup directory or launching application. I believe you can launch these regularly without using the spawn file... I also noticed that if you aren't seeing what you are expecting in My programs, you can go to "switch view" on the left side of MP and then select files.. even if that's what was already selected... good luck!
