[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1199918, member: 141969"] That's fine. Actually, I have been making some further changes, and have come round to the view that the distributed "Centarea HID" should conform more closely to the capabilities of the remote and accepted MP conventions. So I think that I will revert the BROWSER button to its intended meaning. (y) In "MP Config", you can specify the timeout for the OSD. A value of zero causes the timeout to be infinite. If the timeout is infinite, the INFO button can toggle the OSD on and off. However, if the timeout is [B]not[/B] infinite, the INFO button cannot toggle the OSD off -- you have to wait for the timeout to expire. This is the behaviour of MP, and as far as I know this behaviour cannot be changed by the XML or AHK files. The Wiki page is here: [URL]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/MediaPortal_Configuration/13_GUI/6_On-Screen_Display_*[/URL] There is not a clear choice between a finite timeout and an infinite timeout -- there are advantages and disadvantages associated with each. So select whichever is the "least worst" for your use of MP. Only a few panels have an OSD. The ones that come to mind are live TV and video playback, although there may be others. On most panels, INFO acts as a toggle for the Context menu. I will be posting a new version of the "Centarea HID" support package in the next few days, and this new version will allow you to customise the definition of the INFO button in the XML file, using the usual "Mapping" panel in "MP Config" (I have discovered why this was not working :D). -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
