Hi,

How do I stop Kodi from un-minimising itself and stealing the main window focus when I switch my TV back on?

this does not sound like normal kodi operation, more likely an operating system configuration

what operating system and how was kodi installed?

what operating system and how was kodi installed?

Debian 12 (Bookworm) and installed Kodi (version 20.2.0) using `apt`.

looks like this is not a new thing - https://www.reddit.com/r/kodi/comments/n...v_power_on

i am not sure how to properly diagnose this 'issue'

edit:

this seems less so a bug and more so a feature since normal kodi use makes it a media center connected to a TV and not a standard media player

Thanks for looking, jepsizofye.

Just like the op of that reddit post the suggestions there doesn't work for me either (I also don't have any cec devices).

Could I somehow disable this feature, or configure debian to not send a "TV switched on" sort of message to running apps?

Thanks again.
