Dharma RC1 - Keeps asking for password?
#1
Hi, has anyone seen this with RC1 on Windows (XP SP3)

I am using 3 different user profiles.

1) Every once and awhile after logging in to profile, I get asked for my password again. Is there some sort of new timeout?

I have also been getting the "Freeze on exit" issue

Thanks!

I guess I am still a bit confused.... Apparently this problem has been around for awhile and is related to Windows Live Essentials 2011 ... which I've never used or installed. Nor have I ever had problems accessing SMB shares in the past using XBMC 9.x (when apparently the Samba issue was present). But all of a sudden, after installing Dharma RC1 I now see this issue?

Further investigation:
1) When I initially start XBMC RC1, all works fine. It appears that when I let the interface sit idle for about 5 minutes, then I try to access movies from the menu I get the "profile password" popup overlay.

Didn't prior versions "fade" the interface to something darker if interface sat idle (most likely to minimize any kind of screen burn)? RC1 doesn't seem to do that.

I have installed RC2 to see if that corrects the issue.
