Hello All,
Sorry if i'm breaching any thread etiquette by posting here. I have searched for an answer for several days now. Hopefully its easy and my search criterion were just not exact enough. Any way, the problem: When using Advanced Launcher (latest version from the developer repo) to launch a standalone executable (Windows Media Center) from Windows 7 (32bit) XBMC 12.1, it launches WMC perfectly. I can go about my business; easy peasy. But when i close WMC, it doesn't FULLY return focus back to XBMC. WMC closes, XBMC returns, but not in the foreground; the Windows taskbar has focus. I have the video settings set correctly per the instructions at the beginning of the thread. XBMC is NOT minimized, but the windows taskbar is on top of the xbmc window so I have to use my mouse to click on the XBMC icon on the taskbar, and then the xbmc window returns to the foreground (focus).
Before i go into a rube-goldberg solution with EventGhost to correct this, i was hoping the community at large has experienced this, or something similar, and may have some advice on other methods to try.
Thanks so much!
