can't locate local ip and startup delay

[Jan]

I also noticed that in DirectRT 2010, there is a varying delay when starting DirectRt from within Medialab (about 1 to 5 seconds, sometimes longer). What has been particularly problematic is that if the participant makes a mouse click within this time frame, the purple medialab window will stay in the foreground and directrt will run invisibly in the background. Even a doubleclick on the continue button in medialab can cause this behavior. Unfortunately, the microphone setting didn't help.
(Win Xp/Windows7, Medialab 2010.2.19 , DirectRT 2010.2.103.1115)
