Declined Back out of MBC to user selection screen

[AdrianW 998]

When starting MBC we have to option of having the user selection screen display.

 

To change users we have to navigate to the user button at the top right of the screen (in Chocolate) - which can be a number of button presses.

 

I'd like to request an option to be able to "exit" from the EHS back to the user selection screen (instead of all the way out to Media Center). I think this would make switching users quicker an easier.

 

One more "back" press from the user selection screen would return to Media Center (unless the "prevent exit" option was set of course).

For technical reasons that would be quite difficult to accomplish.  You can't actually switch users inside MBC - you have to re-start it.  We are just hiding that process through the switch user screen.  Plus, I think most people don't want to have to back out of the user selection screen in order to exit MBC.  So, for the primary use-case, i think doing that would complicate the process.

 

But, accessing the user menu is really not that difficult.  In most views you can get there in one or two key presses.

That's a shame - but it makes sense. Thanks.
