Hi Maree, When making the changes did you tab around to see if there was a button called "apply" before pressing the "ok" button. It's something I forget to do sometimes.----- Original Message ----- From: maria To: vics Sent: Saturday, September 14, 2013 3:11 PM Subject: [vicsireland] km player query. Hi folks. I hope you are all enjoying your weekend. I was just wandering if you could possibly assist me with this following problem I'm currently having with my km player. When I got my laptop back from NCBI this Tuesday, my km player just functioned normally: IE. I was able to press the space bar to pause and start both my video and audio files. the next day however it asked me to update, so I updated and since that time it now starts in stupid video mode: I.e. every time I start the program, it throws me onto some stupid website and my jaws goes into forms mode. It also tries to give me the list of popular videos which I don't need. and what's more important, I'm now unable to just press the space bar to pause and restart my multimedia. I went onto the km player forum, and there someone had a similar query, and that user was told to change his/her logo in their skins from default to album art. I did the same, and checked to make sure the album art was checked and the default was unchecked. When I exit the program and restart it again however, I'm back to square one: I'm in that stupid website and when I go into skins menu, the default is checked again. How can I get my km player not to start in that stupid video mode, but rather to start in the mode that it was before so that I could use my space bar and not get bothered with this popular videos website. I just need my km player to play audio and video content from my external hard drive and from DVDs, that's all. Any suggestions would be most welcome and appreciated. Thanks a million in advance and all the very best to you and all yours. God bless, Maria. -- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter. SPAMfighter has removed 509 of my spam emails to date.
