Window size issue and menu order

[dusteagle]

I'm fairly new to nPVR (used GB-PVR very long but my installation began to glitch so I switched). I slowly get everything in working order.

But I still run into two problems (my apologies if they have been addressed before in this forum, but the Search function is not really that good)

1) How do I sort the main menu (including plug-ins)? The fixed order isn't that user-friendly

2) Since a few days (I don't recall it happening earlier, but it might be me), I have an extremely annoying issue with window size on starting up. When I launch nPVR it remembers it's position on-screen (for the left-top corner) but the size is set to full screen. (it sounds cryptic, but on startup I always get a full-screen size nPVR window of which the left-top corner is somewhere in the middle of my screen; with the bottom and right parts of the window being outside the desktop)

All help welcome

PS I run a Windows 7 64-bit system

You can tweak the order by editing the <MenuLayout> section of config.xml. I'd suggest backing up the file before editing it though.

Thanks a lot sub.

Regarding the second issue, I've found that reinstalling nPVR doesn't solve it. Somehow it seems that when switching from full-screen to windowed the window-size isn't memorized correctly.

I remember seeing a thread about windowsize and position stored in the registry somewhere, but I can remember any details. Sub?

I have reported this a few times. I found this solution works; after going back to windowed mode move the window slightly and the new offset will be saved.

Thanks to all for the info.
Hope this can be fixed in a next release.

I also noticed this windows positioning problem, but I had much more important problems to ever even ask about it.
