For me this problem does not affect all apps, for the newly released Twitter app the settings pane does not work - it disappears immediately. Lunar Phases is another app where the settings pane does not work for me. It doesn't matter how the Charms bar is opened (through the ModernMix popup or by using the hot corner) and the charms bar isn't disabled.
As I understand it there are licensing fees involved with including a MPEG2 codec. Including such codec would require a price adjustment for DeskScapes and most users already have such codec on their systems anyway (DVD Player, Burning Software, Video Editing Software, Windows Media Center etc.).

I experienced this twice immediately after installing Modern Mix. This problem seems to go away after a reboot or log off/log on. Edit: And the live tile stops working again when the configuration UI is launched...

[quote quoting="post"] But if apps are forced to run full-screen the app designer has the challenge to create something that will work in all these different conditions.

Are you suing the released (non-beta) version? If multiple wallpapers are selected the "Random Background" options appear on the Panel at the right, deleting dreams works as well!?

[quote who="Lantec" reply="19" id="3318451"] My desktop's on Windows 7x64, laptop's Windows 8x64 and it installed the 32 bit version on both which surprised me. I didn't see an option for an x64 version during the installation process.

Sure, we’ve seen and heard a lot about it, we’ve been able to try the Consumer Previews, we've been able to get our hands on the final bits when they were made available back in August and now that we have the official release of Windows 8 all we got is ... Start8 ... !?
[quote who="Jafo" reply="27" id="2560835"] The 'someone' is Stardock's CEO. He is the one who DOES have the position/authority to suggest someone 'piss off'. [/quote] Actually this is the only person at Stardock who shouldn't suggest anyone (customer to be or current customer) to "piss off". Anyway, customer relations aren't really Stardocks strength.
[quote who="rkyle2k5" reply="16" id="2442931"]So after a little research, and actually catching what the BSOD was saying, I have a few updates. First off, the error on the BSOD I am getting is a video scheduler error.[/quote] Since this reminds me on a similar problem I had a year ago, do you have a TV Tuner card with an ATI chipset installed (TV Wonder, Theater PRO)? If so, try the latest driver for this device as well.
I was running Fences Pro Beta on Windows 7 (32 Bit) and installed DeskScapes 3 the day it was released. After a reboot I experienced the problems descibed in this thread, whenever a dream was running my fences were displayed even if they were hidden before, the label on my fences disappeared, and the quick hide feature (double-click) of fences won't work. A uninstall/re-install of Fences Pro Beta fixed this.
[quote who="TheMasterBaron" reply="8" id="2437471"] Let me know if this works for you or not. [/quote] This worked for me, thanks. I thought that Beta 2 (which was the the first version of DeskScapes installed on this system) added support for double-clicking .dream files but apparently this was not the case.
I experience the same problem as ablev1, DreamManager won't start since it did not detect DeskScapes. I have the newest beta of DeskScapes and Win7 32bit.
The following was reported for the free version of fences earlier, on localized versions of Windows Fences adds English menu entries to the desktops context menu duplicating the existing localized menu entries. While the intention of extending the regular context menu entries to reduce clutter may be reasonable I don't understand why this was done by replacing them. There is a "Configure Fences" entry anyway so why not make this a submenu of it's own where one may find all the funct

Why is the "released version 1.0" loaded via Impulse labeled "Release Candidate" on the About screen?
I experienced the same thing with the option "Use internal player" checked (using Vista Ultimate), from what I gathered from these forums this means Deskcapes is used to render the dream. This problem does not exist when using Windows DreamScene to display the dream.
