unwanted go-backs to MP main-menu..... (1 Viewer)

[waeberd]

Hi,

One thing I never understood in MyPrograms (and that I have therefore inherited in MyGames ):

If I launch a game and quit it, I'm always back in MediaPortal MAINMENU!

Why?

(Exception: ZSNES, where you cannot quit the emu with <ALT-F4> or with <ESC> ).

NOT treating the ACTION_PREVIOUS_MENU action does not change anything!

Can somebody explain this to me?

Cheers,

Daniel

some more on that topic:

:!: It depends on the application if launching it does a MP-reset to the main menu or not!

:!: If there's a menu-reset, it occurs immediately after launching the application (not on exiting the app).

:arrow: So it has nothing to do with the keystroke that exits the application (as I suspected, because <ESC> is often used to quit emulators).


apps that reset MP to the main-menu:
* MAME
* Project64
* Gens (Sega Genesis emulator)

apps that don't reset MP main-menu:
* zsnes (Super Nintendo emulator)
* Ultra-Edit / notepad.exe ( :wink: )

Is this a DirectX issue??
Two DirectX applications that interfere in some way?

Cheers,

Daniel
