[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1096685, member: 141969"] I have now repeated test case 3 on the DefaultWide and Titan skins using a keyboard instead of a remote control, and the unexpected panel flow occurs on those skins too (so unlikely to be an aMPed problem). See below for details of the test procedure. At the point where the EPG is displayed twice in succession, the visible manifestation differs between skins: (1) With aMPed, pressing the ESC key on the EPG panel causes the top few lines to be blanked and then redisplayed, and the programme info at the bottom to be blanked and then redisplayed (i.e. the information appears to "blink"). The EPG grid and its contents do not change. It seems clear that MP has registered the keypress and responded by redrawing at least some of the panel. (2) With Titan, only the programme info is blanked and then redrawn. But again, it is clear that MP has registered the keypress and redrawn the panel. (3) With DefaultWide, there is no visible change to the EPG panel. However, the impression is that the first press of the ESC key was ignored, and only the second press takes effect. One might ascribe this to not pressing the ESC properly the first time, but I think that the behaviour of the Titan and aMPed skins show that MP is registering the keypress, and redrawing the screen, but with DefaultWide not blanking the screen first (so there is no apparent change to the screen). [B]Test Details[/B] (1) Ensure that you have set the configuration options as described in my first post under "Preliminaries", as those settings affect the panel flow. (2) There seems to be no keyboard short cut to display the EPG, so I used instead F9 to display a sub-menu, followed by ENTER to select the first entry in the sub-menu (the EPG). (3) I started MP in debug mode, and arrived at the "Home" panel. I then pressed the following keys in the order shown: enter, enter, right, right, enter, f9, enter, down(or up), enter, b, esc, esc The penultimate ESC is the one where the programme info blinks. The last ESC is the one where the "Home" panel is displayed, instead of the expected "TV Menu" panel. I have attached the logs. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
