When starting a video in the external player MPC-HC the window opens behind XBMC. I just updated from jester to the latest SVN a few days ago and built a core factory file. Now, unlike before, if I press exit after the movie starts (I can hear the movie) then MPC-HC will close and XBMC will resume (did freeze).
My workaround has been for remoteghost to kill XBMC upon MPC-HC launch and vise-vera. This isn't ideal, and at times it fails to close XBMC which causes the video to play poorly.
An update to the extplayer stuff was committed to SVN last night and will be in builds 22423 and higher. Try one of those.
