It works logging in normally (meaning there's a login screen of the display manager, then inputting password then the DE starting and then MC will start) and it works when autologging in. So no, autologin isn't required for this to work. But I'd definitely recommend putting at least a 5 second delay/sleep or else the MC window will appear immediately when the DE starts.

Here's what I'm testing right now for Media Center itself...


--- Code: ---[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Media Center 24
Comment=JRiver Media Center 24
Exec=sh -c "sleep 5; /usr/bin/mediacenter24"
Terminal=false
StartupWMClass=Media_Center_24
StartupNotify=true
Hidden=false
--- End code ---

And Media Server...


--- Code: ---[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Media Center 24
Comment=JRiver Media Center 24
Exec=sh -c "sleep 5; /usr/bin/mediacenter24 /MediaServer"
Terminal=false
StartupWMClass=Media_Center_24
StartupNotify=true
Hidden=false
--- End code ---

So far it's working fine in all tests, even under Wayland (with XWayland).

I just implemented this, it will be in the next build.
Thanks for all the help Geier22 and A.D.

Thanks all for the help. I used the gnome-tweak-tool and that took care of the problem

With the next build, the startup option(s) should work.
