Error Description:
Cannot switch back to Windows desktop from MediaPortal after watching TV. MediaPortal doesn't crash but loses focus and Windows desktop keeps hidden in the background.
Error Trace:
1. Enter TV and start watching.
2. Stop TV and go back to home screen
3. Try to close Mediaportal (using (x) button at the top left)
4. Mediaportal loses focus but the Windows desktop does not appear and you can't do anything (not even start the Taskmanager). The only way to recover is to press the "Media" button on the remote so that Mediaportal regains focus again.
Manual Workaround:
This problem (i.e. to switch to Windows after watching TV) can be resolved after switching into the Movie section and then starting a movie. After stopping the movie, I can finally switch to the desktop without any problems.
Possible Cause:
I guess it's a problem with the video memory since I have a similar problem when I try to start my Milkdrop visualization plugin (which tries to open a window in the background). Then, I got an error telling that there is not enough video memory available to start the plugin.
