Media Browser Theater - Logging in


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

 

I am using Win 7 x64.  When logging in to my profile, it does not hide the password at all.  Is there a way to hide it?  Seems like a huge security risk.  Looks like a Win 8 virtual keyboard.

 

Thank you!

It is tricky to implement, because currently the keyboard uses a TextBox control which has been customised to look like it is focused while it isn't. The TextBox cannot be masked, instead you would have to use a PasswordBox, which is a totally different control with a different API. Supporting both would greatly complicate the code.

 

The password is only visible while the keyboard is open (it is masked on the field on the login page), but I will add this to my todo list.

On a related note, using my remote I used to just type in my password and hit ok to login.  Now it seems I need to type in my password and arrow down to the login button before hitting ok.  Hitting ok in the password box opens the on screen keyboard.
