[mythtv-users] RE: mplayer under XFCE4

[Stephen Tait]

I encountered a similar issue myself under Fluxbox with 0.14 (it seemed to 
fix itself in 0.15 and onwards). I was using sloppy focus (point to focus), 
and whenever an mPlayer or Xine window popped up, it would appear behind 
the frontend window, which was less than useful. As I say, this doesn't 
seem to happen in 0.15.

In case of future hassles, does anyone know if Myth has a "force this kind 
of focus behaviour, and to hell with what the window manager thinks" 
switch? I remember tinkering with the options in one of the setup menus, 
but it didn't seem to do anything. But then again, I don't think I'd RTFM'd 
that bit very much.
