Brief Background:
I have a collection of SD x264 content that doesn't play properly with DXVA enabled in Dharma. (See this thread.) Since I don't want to lose the benefits of DXVA for HD content, I created playercorefactory.xml settings to launch SD x264 content with MPC-HC until XBMC offers settings for selective use of DXVA.
Here are my playercorefactory settings:
The Problem:
When MPC-HC quits, XBMC comes back up. However, XBMC isn't "focused" in Windows. Accordingly, before I can navigate the XBMC interface again, I need to click the mouse or Alt-Tab to refocus XBMC. This is really annoying because my HTPC is controlled solely by keyboard commands.
Anyone have an idea to make XBMC automatically refocus in this situation?
Thanks!
