Is the mouse arrow invisible by choice in the browser? I would prefer it visible.

Could you please post the version that steals focus. I think the folks using IR server suite can have better use of that one. At least I would like to try.

Yes the mouse shows up if you move your mouse and dissapears on a keypress.
I dont know whats the advantage of ir server suite but the browser is now controlled by mediaportal (for example scroll down: mediaportal registers the action "move down" and sends the scroll down command to the webbrowser). So i think the ir server suite remotes should work the same way as my mce remote do. Hope your understand what i mean.

I don't get any mouse arrow at all in the browser, not in Vista or XP setup

I cannot do anything else than exit back to MP, with my remote Once in a while up and down works.

When using the IR server suite, one has to stop Windows normal MCE remote actions with the reg edit below. Maybe that's the difference?

EDIT: I've detailed below a new method for making the eHome driver behave like the replacement driver, this new method is much better than the old one and everyone should switch to it.

I don't know how I didn't find this earlier...

Load "regedit.exe" and navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\HidIr\Remotes\745a17a0-74d3-11d0-b6fe-00a0c90f57da

Then delete the keys from "CodeSetNum0" to "CodeSetNum3".

The mouse don't show up with version v0.93. In the next version this should work. Also the browser in the new version is working much better. Try this when i release it.

Edsche: nice work with the browser!! I love the idea of making a standalone browser plugin based on this! As said before: being able to type using the on screen keyboard would be much apreciated.

Because i'm using a touch screen to control MP i have some feature requests for the webbroser already:
-Can Topbar support be enabled when using the browser?
-Could you make the vertical scrollbar bigger?

Maybe make these things configurable (some sort of 'touch screen mode', or just using thicks). Keep up the good work!

 

[Swede]

A nice feature would be if the browser page could be aligned to left, right or centered, when zoomed

Hey sorry dumb question but how do you define the location of the weather 128 and 64 resolution images... I can't for the life of me get the weather aspect going..

Also are there skins for streamedMP, not just basichome but skins for the other aspects of this plug-in. Thanks..

It is the strangest thing, I get the RSS feed, just no weather what so ever..

The weather background files are going into the X:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Weather\128x128\ folder. Yes the are skin files for streamed mp. I've attached them. I think i must copy all the skin files together and add them to the first post If the weather thing doesn't work, i will need your mediaportal.log to see why it doesn't work.

How does this feature work?
Is this plugin able to display a random feed in the basic home?
Thanks

This was used in the versions till v0.5 because these versions haven't got a own screen. They only showed a dialog when you have pressed on the button on the basichome screen.

No there is no such feature, but this is a thing i can easily add
