[QUOTE="Anthony Vaughan, post: 1221436, member: 153283"] Okay. I think I have found the fix. There has been a change to the settings in C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\skin\DefaultWideHD\splashscreen.xml. The old version contained: <control> <description>splashscreen text</description> <type>label</type> <id>2</id> <posY>950</posY> <textsize>30</textsize> <textcolor>#87cefa</textcolor> </control> The new version contains: <control> <description>splashscreen text</description> <type>label</type> <id>2</id> <posX>0</posX> <posY>500</posY> <width>1920</width> <height>40</height> <textsize>25</textsize> <textcolor>#00bfff</textcolor> <align>TopCenter</align> </control> Clearly, this s a bit of a problem for those of us that use the common configuration location, because, if we upgrade to the common location, we will lose all of our custom settings. Therefore, I rename the user > documents file so the upgrade operates locally and then rename it back for normal use. Up till now, there have been no significant changes to configuration files, but this time there have been changes in the skin. I guess I will need to rethink how I configure the skin in future upgrades. Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
