[QUOTE="nordemoniac, post: 751900, member: 101472"] [b]Re: Starting MediaPortal from minimized state with a Remote[/b] That's exactly what I want! Mine doesn't! It didn't in 1.1.0, 1.1.3, 1.2A or 1.2B. It just starts an additional windows, instead of creating a GUI for the tray... Any tip on why this doesn't happen for me? Could you please test this: Set it to minimize on startup, and minimize to tray on GUI exit, and create a shortcut where you set a hotkey; "Shift+Alt+1" and then instead of clicking the shortcut, you type that key combination. That's what my remote actually does. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ OK, I tested a bit more. This is what happens: - Start MP, immediately minimizes to tray (no GUI) (perfect!) - Start MP again, it creates a GUI to the existing tray (perfect!) - Close it with Alt+F4, GUI exits, and tray keeps running (perfect!) - Start the third time, a new MP windows comes up, instead of creating a GUI for the session running in the status bar...crap... So, it will not make a difference. It will only let me successfully start ONE time. If I use Alt+F4, it won't create a new GUI for that session unless I doubleclick the tray, or rightclick and click "restore". Are you able to replicate the problem? [/QUOTE]
