@mrh335 - I don't have a Windows 8 setup, so I can't offer much help here, hopefully someone can. Do you still get the focus issue if you disable auto refresh rate switching? Your codes look good to me.
I did figure out one additional item that helped me and may help others with PowerDVD 12.
In the PlayISO.bat file, insert AUTOPLAY prior to the drive letter. For me this code looked like
"C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD12\PDVDLaunchPolicy.exe" AUTOPLAY E:
After the ISO is mounted, this will then play the mounted ISO in virtual drive E:.
I cannot use an unmount command after this as it just unmounts the ISO and PowerDVD never plays it.
Any help to institute a proper unmount would be nice.
The only problem remaining is that the ISO file will mount and start playing, but this all happens in the background meaning PowerDVD is playing in the background behind XBMC. My only option is to Alt-Tab to switch windows to get to PowerDVD. From there on, it is good. When the video is exited, I am returned to XBMC.
I disabled the refresh rate switching in XBMC, but it is on by default in PowerDVD and this is actually the main reason I am using PowerDVD is because TMT5 would not play at the correct refresh rate and provided constant stutter even with Autofrequency was used to set the frame rate. TMT5 seems to be incompatible with my bluray ISO playback.
PowerDVD 12 gets me where I want to be, except it is not playing on top of all the windows even though this option is checked internally, but obviously not being used correctly by PowerDVD.
Can someone offer a suggestion how to get XBMC to launch PowerDVD and XBMC go to the background and PowerDVD come to the foreground with focus?
