Force Window Focus gets unchecked. (1 Viewer)

[karakas]

Hi, I'm using IR server to launch MP on the green button, and to map alt+F4 to the TV power button on the MCE remote.

But I'm having some focus problems with the launch button. Here is what I'm doing:

- Open Translator
- Press "new"
- Press the green button
- Open the "Run" tab
- Choose the Mediaportal.exe file
- Check "Force Window Focus"
- Press "Set"
- Press ok

But at this point the "Force Window Focus" gets unchecked. What's the reason for this?

*Bump*

I have the same problem

Alternatively, how can remap the start button to switch to the mediaportal window when mediaportal is running in the translator? Currently, I have it set to start mediaportal, which switches to the instance but does not bring the window forward. Here "force focus" also stays unchecked.

I have the same problem (though I'm using translator to run XBMC). The "force focus" button just unchecks itself and I have to use the mouse to put the focus on the window after I launch the program.

I just installed build 1.4.2.3281 in the hopes that it would fix it but no luck...

Yep, I have the same issue too.
Using v 1.5.0-62. I've tried all combinations but no luck. Weird thing is that it used to work fine then seemed to change to this mode all by itself one day.

And yes, I know I resurrected a very ancient thread
