G-Force wouldn't embed properly for me in previous versions either. Nor would it embed in Skinbedder properly.. I think it has something to do with G-Force's windowing system.

I also have problems with the TV plugin. I have a WinTV USB FM and with win2000 it works fine. After selecting my WinTV in the TV plugin settings and saving all the settings I get the following error when selecting the TV section:

I use this hauppauge driver setup: wintvusb_263_23081.exe

Do I need to install more than this?

Here is a SKIN related bug:

If you open CF and change the Skin via the General settings screen, it will not load all the elements of the new skin. In particular, it will NOT load the new 'folder', and 'video' icons. (It will use the ones from the previous skin).

Presumably it fails to load any images located in the 'root' folde of the new skin (folder, videoart, audioart, etc...)

Once you close CF and open it again, it WILL load the correct (new) ones though....

On both iG and GooPs (both ran through SKINbedder actually), sometimes when you click the X in the lower-right corner and then re-click the menu item to switch back, it launches a 2nd instance rather than just switching back (sometimes it works like it should though).

Also, the difference between "close" (upper-right X) and "minimize" (lower-right X) should be made more clear in general. Not that I like the drop-down at all, but it might make more sense if it contained all running apps. There should be some way to see a list of running apps and switch to them. There should also be away to embed apps on startup so they are ready to be switched to instantly without having to wait for the program to load.
