I apologize if this question has been answered in another forum post, but my Google and Forum Search skills failed me in attempting to find it.
I have XBMC 9.04 installed on a Dell Studio Hybrid with Vista Ultimate, hooked up to an LG HDTV via HDMI.
If you turn the TV off while XBMC is open, then turn the TV back on again, XBMC will show nothing but a black screen. Switching away focus (alt+tab or Window key, etc.) away from and back to XBMC fixes that problem, but a new one arises. The first time you hit the "Enter" key (such as when selecting a menu option), XBMC flickers once and then refuses to accept the "Enter" key. One must use a mouse click for the same functionality.
All other apps and the OS wake up from the monitor powering off and on fine, and all other apps accept keyboard and mouse input normally. The problem seems to only occur for XBMC. The problem persists regardless of different mice/keyboard combos (wired or wireless).
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can give.
