I searched but I couldn't find any mention of this, so I'll ask. When streaming songs, StreamPoint will steal the focus from whatever active application I have open for a brief moment between each track.
For example, if I am in Opera (web browser) typing a message when a track is changed, the title bar will dim for a split second showing me that another application has focus, and if I happened to be in the middle of typing something, some letters would of course be dropped because Opera did not have focus while I was typing.
Also if I am playing games while music is playing, whenever a track is changed the game will completely minimize to the desktop. The Opera bit is annoying, but having a game minimize on you in the middle of playback is just craziness. Is this normal behavior for the Streampoint software or is something wrong with my setup?
