RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - unalex - 2014-10-05 ... and every 5 roms gamefaq blocked my IP RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - ryokurin - 2014-10-05 is the gwenael.org wiki permanently gone? Everything except the repository has been gone for at least a week.

Everything except the repository has been gone for at least a week.Yes all gone. Not enough time and server ressources to maintain a wiki and a forum in place. Also tired to make support for all possible application that could be started by Advanced launcher. Sorry. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2014-10-05 (2014-10-05, 00:54)unalex Wrote: i just try manual add rom info (by automatic gamefaq said "You IP blocked")You know... if gamefaq is now blocking scraping acces by IP, I cannot do anything. Continue manually of use another scraper. To be honest, acually my mind is to remove all games related stuff from Advanced Launcher because most of the use us Advanced launcher not as an application launcher but as a rom manager. Your IP is blocked by GameFAQ, but how many games have your scraped before it happen? 1 000, 2 000? (2014-10-05, 00:54)unalex Wrote: (i know this method with backup, but i hope, you make something in new version and destroy this bug)This bug is due to the fact that XBMC is randomly wipe the items list. All add-on involved into itemlist edition/creation are affected. It is not related to Advanced Launcher but to XBMC. Your last error message mean that Advanced Launcher try to acces to an launcher ID ("05bb3778e8df5d1d0a6a7c38bee15e89") that do not exist anymore. How do you acces it? Now if you have a script error and want to correctly report it, follow the instruction of the first post : Bugs report and support : If you obtain a script error message when using Advanced Launcher, please post here (using pastebin service) the content of the xbmc.log file just after the error occurred. This file contain the information concerning the script error, that will help to quickly identify the problem. If Advanced Launcher is not able to start correctly an application, when reporting your problem, please post here (using pastebin service) the content of the launchers.xml file. This file contain the information concerning your launcher configuration, that will help to quickly identify the problem.

Your IP is blocked by GameFAQ, but how many games have your scraped before it happen? 1 000, 2 000? today i scrape 1033 Genesis Roms, only 30 Roms became info, thumbs & fanarts, and IP Blocked(its no problem, i have dinamic IP) and scrapper work only with gamefaq, with gamesdb & allgames i have empty info but 2 weeks early i scraped more 2000 NES & SNES Roms without blocking and problems - gamefaq, gamesdb, allgames - all was OK i dont know where problem hidden - in XBMC or Advanced Launcher(i use Openelec XBMC 13.2 Git:0f3db05 Linux 3.16.3 x86_64 and Advanced Launcher 2.5.7) if in XBMC - its randomly wiped data during rom edition, or error can always been - by playing too? and i dont know how i acces error, i only add manualy info to roms(context menu - "edit item" - "import infos.....") many thanks for Advanced Launcher, and support ----offtop--- sorry for my bad english(my language is russian, and 10 years i live in Germany - languagemix in head) ----- RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - unalex - 2014-10-05 One more question (hint) if the file name has an ampersand, scraper seeking wrong, probably it must somehow be replaced in the script with "and" or escape for example file "Tom & Jerry.nes" - scraper with automatic search produces "Tom Sawyer," but with "Tom and Jerry.nes" result is correct RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Rezman - 2014-10-05 I'm a bit of a noob and have a few questions. I'm using 13.2 “Gotham” with Aeon MQ 5 as my skin if it matters at all. First how can I close xbmc when I launch a PC game? I don't want to run xbmc in the background since my computer isn't to great (need all the resources possible). I don't care about it relaunching once I've closed the game. Like is there something I can put inside the arguments to close it? Another thing is how do I add extra fan art and trailer to work? I've added the paths in advance modifications. Is there a certain path or naming element to it? I'm able to play the trailer by going to the context menu, but it plays in the background and I have to hit Tab to switch over to it. Would be nice if it just played in a little window. The extra fan art doesn't work at all for me. Last thing is what is the skin Angelscry is using in his screen shots and how does he have a thumb on the right side next to the game cover? Thanks so much in advance.

So you have scraped around 3000 roms data on gamefaq servers. So, that's mean that your computer has continuously send around 10.000 requests to gamefaq servers and now you are surprised that they block your ip adress!? Too greedy. The more pathetic is : At how many games are you really going to play: 10 or 20? (2014-10-05, 05:06)unalex Wrote: if in XBMC - its randomly wiped data during rom edition, or error can always been - by playing too?No. Only when you edit stuff.

I don't care about it relaunching once I've closed the game. Like is there something I can put inside the arguments to close it?You need to use/start an external script with Advanced Launcher that will automatically close XBMC, start the application and then start XBMC once the application is closed.

Thanks so much in advance.The skin used is Cirus Extended v3 and the screenshot is corresponding to the item info view. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2014-10-05 (2014-10-05, 05:20)unalex Wrote: One more question (hint)Its a problem with the database used during scraping. Not a probleme with the scraper. GameFAQ databse do not effectively report the good game for "Tom & Jerry". But AllGame and TheGameDB database does. That why you have different scrapers into Advanced Launcher and the choice to switch between them. There is no perfect game databse.

How I will config Emulators now?You will go on emulator's website and see with which command line they use to start games and use it with advanced launcher. The problem is that emulators version and command line change, and I have actually not anymore the time and the taste to maintain an updated a wiki page of emulator command lines.

I have my old launchers.xml and settings.xml files (and also backup folder) but if I copy launchers.xml to the userdata/addon_data/Advanced Launcher folder it causes script failed error when trying to start Advanced Launcher. If I go to settings, both import XML and append XML don't seem to work, I just hear click sound but nothing else. So how do I restore/import my earlier launcher data? I'm using Ubuntu/Linux system with latest XBMC nightly build.
