Title: Is there an MC11 wishlist ?
Post by: DeanB on February 21, 2005, 02:58:46 pm

Newb to MC - followed the link from the Cinemar website as in the process of changing my HTPC from XLobby to Cinemar. My setup is here http://www.samares.net

Am very very impressed with MC - had never heard of it before - have been using WinAmp and MusicMatch previously.

Ran MC10 for a few days - and now 11 so i could get support for my PVR250

Couldnt find a specific wishlist anywhere, so thought i'd post here.

I'm sure its not there, but what i would really like is the ability to make the windowed view stay on top.

Do a lot of work on PC with TV running in small 'always on top' window in Hauppauge WinTV2000, would be great to be able to use Media Center and have the same facility.

Thanks for a great product, purchased my license today :)

If your interested I have a small VB program apptly named
OnTop O Dizer :-)
You place it any where a short cut will work from, then
place a keyboard short cut to it, say CTRL ALT T
and then when you press that keyboard sequence wallah that window becomes on Top :-)

Possibly if you do a search around theres more profesional ones out there.
This was done about 3 years ago when I was just learning to code
and the company i was working for didn't know what to do with me :-)
(They still don't really. hehe)

Thanks Jim - obviously didnt look 'everywhere'  ;D

Found a little quirk with my MC10 installation - your icon became an Ebay icon on the desktop ?

I have been into properties and its the correct one in choose icon, but when i refresh the desktop its the ebay one... strange.

Thanks for your help



Dean.

Sounds like you need to rebuild your icon cache.  Check out some of the icon replace utilities out there or use tweakui to do this.
