Title: Start External Encoder Minimized?
Post by: kamiller42 on October 23, 2006, 02:33:49 pm
Is there a way to start an external encoder minimized? I am trying to do other tasks while ripping a CD. The CLI window pops up, comes to the front, and takes focus. I would like to let the encoder do its working in the background and not steal focus.

Not sure if this is a bug, I noticed if I have the Options window while ripping, MC fails to finish encoding. The CLI encoder finishes and the main window never knows it's done if the Options screen is open. If you close the Options screen, MC rip status says "Encoding" and you have to cancel the Rip to get things going again.
