If I'm on the main screen, or in the mission editor I can alt-tab.  But most of the other places in the game I can not alt-tab.  This is a serious issue as I need to alt-tab to training videos as I fly.  In the non-beta version of the client there's no issue alt-tabbing ever.  I'd dare-say performance is also much better in the non-beta client as well.

 

Is there any way to get around this so I can stay on the beta client all the time?

Hi. Both versions work the same way: you need to launch a windowed application in order to Alt-Tab from DCS.

Just start anything: Chrome, Firefox, even the Windows walculator will do. Then launch the game.

 

One more thing: Firefox and Chrome allow you to export a video in Picure in Picture mode. I find this VERY useful to follow a video tutorial while playing DCS.

In Firefox, it looks like this:
