Hi,

I'm wondering what 'processes' the ProcessPlugins.dll file controls. The irTrans Display in my Zalman HD160 case goes very dim when I start MediaPortal (the External Display configuration does not have any effect on this). The problem is detailed in this thread: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/support-119/irtrans-low-brightness-contrast-when-mp-start-after-30873/

For the last couple of months I have been replacing the ProcessPlugins.dll with this replacement file from post #8 of that thread whenever updating the svn (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/208118-post8.html)
(Cheers cybrmage!)

Today I updated with the latest svn (17397) and noticed that the ProcessPlugins.dll that comes with MediaPortal/SVN has increased in size (from 640KB to 644KB) since the last time I updated, leading me to believe there have been changes made within the file. My display still dims with this new ProcessPlugins.dll so that hasn't been changed. I'm wanting to find out what processes are controlled by this file so that I know what I might be missing out on by replacing the 'legit' file with the replacement. Would also like to know how to go about getting the changes in the replacement file that allow the irTrans display to work without dimming incorporated into the 'official' ProcessPlugins.dll file.

Regards,
Trav.

processplugins contains all the process plugins that are installed by default with MP.
so if you do a clean install and the go to configuration/plugins and check out what's in the process section, that will tell you.
