| | Posted: | | | | Please, oh please, get rid of the startup box with the eyeball that stays in the middle of the screen while the program is starting up. Not because of the eyeball. You can't do anything while that programming travesty blocks the use of your computer. Doesn't matter what you have open, you're not moving until the program loads. It's HUGELY annoying and completely unnecessary. |

| | Posted: | | | | Yes it does... The screen, at least on my computer, can't be move and rest on the screen while it loads so you can't use any other programs as the splash screen block the view. |

| | Posted: | | | | That is how it was on my old computer as well (couldn't do anything else while splash screen was on)... but not the case with my new computer. I don't know if the difference is in the windows version or that I now have a much more powerful machine. | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | I can do other things, but the splash screen keeps jumping to the front. and I have to switch to another window, then back to get rid of it and it jumps to the front again a few seconds later. I can still work, but it blocks my view of a significant portion of the screen. |

Here the tiny splash "screen" only steals the focus at the very end of the progress bar, right before the application window appears. | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played.
