I have three issues.
1. I have asked previously and did not get a solution. while it does not happen every time it does happen often enough to be a problem for me. If I pause a movie and leave it paused for let say 30 seconds or if I pause and then restart quickly and (this is using the remote) the sound starts but I have a black screen. I have to go to the keyboard hit ctrl-alt-del and once I click on task manger it regains its focus. I dont have to stop MC in task manager. I had this problem with windows 7 and windows media center installed so I did a new install of windows 8 and did not reinstall windows media center just in case there was some conflict. Still the problem exists. I always have the latest builds of MC and the latest driver for my video card. I have searched the forum for solutions and have tried a couple of solutions for others but still nothing has solved this. Of those solutions I have checked in options>theater view I have checked use full screen exclusive mode for drawing and then under ease of access I have under make mouse easier to use I have the activate a window by hovering over it with the mouse checked.
2. the second issue is the MC hangs because it stops recognizing the remote. Most of the time after a period it does unhang and start responding again. I have read the trouble shooting guide that glynor has and I did disable windows defender but that has not worked.
3. Finally Netflix on my computer that I use as the server to my 2 client computers will not let me log into my Netflix account. it causes the program to freeze. it also will not display any of the ques of movies. while the clients work perfectly.
