Hi
Is there an option to auto exit theatre view after xx minutes of in activity after a Stop.
Ours pc gets left on, and when our tv is switched off or to another source we lose track of how long MC as been scraping for backdrop images.
Cheers

I don't think there's an inactivity timer. But you might find use in scripting calls to :
http://localhost:52199/MCWS/v1/Playback/Info?Zone=-1
and checking the State and Status values that are returned. You could use Windows Scheduler to periodically run a script that:
- checks the value for Stopped on launch, and exits if Playing. Otherwise...
- delays for <desired mins> / 2 and then checks for Stopped, exiting otherwise
- delays the remainder and checks for Stopped, exiting otherwise
- sends an MCC command to switch out of Theater View
