Proper 'start in full screen' option

[RR7]

the current option isn't really true.

 

i'd like the program to actually start in full screen, not start in a window then switch to full screen which is what it currently does.

 

i run DVBViewer in a set top box / htpc enviroment, and it's spoiled by the window that pops up for around 2 seconds before it flicks to full screen.

 

also, being able to suppress the loading screen would be good too, the -nosplash option doesn't seem to work anymore?

Hello,

 

to actually start in full screen, not start in a window then switch to full screen which is what it currently does.

for this you must use the HTPC Mode, for more take a look into the file Tweaks.txt (installation folder)

 

To enter the HTPCMode you must edit the file setup.xml in the configuration folder (About -> config...)

then close DVBViewer Pro and open the setup.xml with notepad to copy the following into it:

	<entry name="HTPCMode">1</entry>

this must be into the section General.

 

to suppress the loading screen would be good too, the -nosplash option doesn't seem to work anymore?

yes, the -nosplash is removed and not working any more.

The DVBViewer can show who he is.

that's brilliant! i'd been trying to work out how to set htpc mode, totally missed the tweaks.txt file. thankyou very much!

 

i can live with the splash screen, at least it's nice looking
