Hi all,
(new to this forum, I did search, apologies if this question has already been answered)
I have used XMBC for a while but I have realized that it causes precisely one problem for me using the Vivaldi browser. Vivaldi allows to cycle through open tabs with a neat thumbnail view by pressing the RMB and using the wheel. When XMBC is active, RMB still opens the context menu, and wheel works fine for scrolling. Only this feature is disabled and I initially thought it was a Vivaldi bug (posted in their forum AND wrote a bug report )
I have reproduced this problem by uninstalling XMBC (-> Vivaldi feature works), Downloading & installing XMBC 2.19.2 with resetting all existing profiles without setting up anything (all on "no change")
Consistently the Vivaldi feature breaks when XMBC is enabled, and the Vivaldi feature works when XMBC is disabled through right-click on the task manager icon
XMBC enables the tilt wheel of my MS mouse to actually do what I want (the silly MS control center does not, well done MS). But I really like that Vivaldi feature in its default.
Ideally this interference can be resolved in a future update of the program. Looking for Vivaldi on this forum I saw a thread that apparently it is possible to set up tab switching with XMBC, but have not yet been able to figure out how and see if it is giving me an adequate experience compared to Vivaldi's default. Any pointers would be very welcome. Thanks a lot!
