Starting MCE 'Live TV' as default Screen when starting after Sleep

Does anyone know how to configure Vista MCE to return to the 'Live TV' screen
from a wakeup after Sleep mode?
Right now, MCE defaults to 'Recorded TV' after restart.
I would like to have the 'Live TV' default whenever MCE starts/wakes-up.
Any help is much appreciated.

Re: Starting MCE 'Live TV' as default Screen when starting after S

Thank you for the command-line params. They work well when applied to
ehshell.exe shortcuts in Startup folder or RUN key in registry. However, I
am unable to find the place in the system to apply the command-line params
where Media Center (ehshell.exe) gets re-started from a Sleep wake-up .

Problem: When shutting down MC with the Sleep option and then resuming PC
operation (Power button or Keyboard action), Media Center interface always
continues with 'Recorded TV' screen, even if command-line parameters are
configured for ehshell.exe in Startup folder and/or RUN registry entry.

Any thoughts were in the system ehschell.exe can be configured to resume
from sleep with 'Live TV' as default?

Thank you for any help.
D.J.
