Windows 8 - MCE Green Button - NPVR Looses Focus

[Lao Pan]

I am using windows 8 with Start8 and Rocketdock (set to be always on the bottom) - Nice, how windows 8 should have been

When starting NPVR wirh the MCE remote Green Button it starts full screen in the background - ie under Rocketdock and the Taskbar and only a mouse click will regain focus - pressing the green button doesn't do it. (I have tried with Rocketdock uninstalled - same)

If you start NPVR from a standard shortcut - ie not always on top - in the start menu or desktop or from the startup folder it always has focus.

Any Ideas? or what Logs might shed any light?

Just had a thought after typing this - maybe need to disable ehome?

I've found NPVR's always-on-top stuff to be ever so slightly wobbly at times, even when using the -ontop command parameter.

Most of the time it does start on top, but I still get a very small percentage of starts where it doesn't have focus (despite being the only thing visible), or something like the Win7 taskbar is still on top of it. It can sometimes lose focus too (despite nothing else running) when video playback kicks in.
