Hello,

Sorry if this question has been answered previously. I had a look through this thread and did a quick search but could not find anything.

I have just installed powerstrip so that i can change mediaportal's resolution from my desktop's 1440X900 to my plasma's 1360X768. I set up an application profile for mediaportal to do this, named MP. When, using the mouse, i right click on the powerstrip systray icon and select the MP application profile the screen changes resolution and starts up mediaportal perfectly. When i exit mediaportal, the resolution changes perfectly back to my desktop.

The problem is whenever i use the mce remote to start mediaportal (via mptray), it starts mediaportal but the resolution stays at desktop's 1440X900.

--edit-- i've had a good go at using HIP with a simple batch file but it doesn't always operate correctly (especially with resolution failing to change back to desktop on exit every time) and scrolling that can't be altered in screen calibration.

Is there a simple solution to this that anyone could enlighten me of?

Thanks
n
