Multiple Instances Warning

Hello,

I'd like to request a feature, when you try to launch DVBDream when it already running it displays a warning message box saying : "Another DVB Dream instance is already running!", and we all agree there shouldn't be more than one instance at the time. But wouldn't it be more logical to just give focus to the current DVB Dream window (no matter if it's in normal, window or fullscreen...), instead of this warning ?

That would be easier to get the focus on DVB Dream when you're away from the keyboard/mouse, using a remote control.

Thanks in advance.

Not really, two instances are useful when you have two DVB cards for example.

Anyway, I support this request. It would be still possible to start the other instance using the command line parameters.

Oh ok, I didn't think of this scenario. In fact that could even be useful to me, since I have one card with two tuners (2xhybrid).
