request to add launching video player full screen on same monitor as PVRX2

[Wakalaka]

You started working on this option over a month ago, but never got time to implement it. Any testing that I can do to help?

I actually duplicated your setup today to work on it. I was holding the latest release till tomorrow to see if I could implement it.

Wakalaka, I've successfully fixed the issue for the next release which I am getting ready to package and post. One thing I've learned is that even though PvrX2 may open fullscreen on your TV, if you set it to open in windowed mode it may open on the other monitor. If this is the case, the player will open on the other monitor and not the TV. Change GBPVR to open in windowed mode and start it. If it doesn't open on the TV, drag it over to the TV then close it. You can then set it to open in fullscreen again. This will set the necessary registry entries for the player to open on the correct monitor.

Could you please make these instructions as a sticky post? It worked for me, and don't want this info to get lost.

I got EvenGhost to close the WatchNow window by configuring my remote button to "Close a Window" instead of posting the Escape key to the window. It closed the WatchNow window when I hit Escape on the keyboard and the WatchNow window had focus, but wouldn't close it when emulating an Escape key. Must be something specific about the WatchNow window, considering that I emulate keystrokes for all other remote buttons.

Glad to hear it. I'll add it to the main instructions on the next update. I'll have one in a couple of days to fix the screensaver issue.
