How do I get MediaPortal to run on a limited-account user? It works great as on an Administrator account. Thanks!

I'm able to run the MediaPortal as a restricted user, but when I hit the pause button to timeshift, the TV menu pops up and all video is stopped. Only way to get it back is to restart the application.

I tracked down a number of problems, with MediaPortal trying to access specific folders (Media portal logs folder, The My Recordings folder of another user) and registry keys (A subkey of IviSDK4Hauppauge in the HKLM\Software), but I've reached a point where the error message doesn't say what the program is trying to do when it fails.

The error log looks as follows:
2007-10-03 23:18:14.163664 [ERROR][MPMain]: GUIWindow:OnWindowLoaded id:1 ex:Object of type 'MediaPortal.GUI.Library.GUIMultiImage' cannot be converted to type 'MediaPortal.GUI.Library.GUIVideoControl'. at System.RuntimeType.CheckValue(Object value, Binder binder, CultureInfo culture, BindingFlags invokeAttr)

If you use a VPN connection to your home network, you should be able to use the MP client to connect to your server natively instead of using MPExtended.

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
