RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - aoaaron - 2013-12-10 update: i've figured out how to map escape and alt+f4 to my mceremote... now all i need is advice please on how to boot dolphin games up. keeps coming up with an error. RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - teeedubb - 2013-12-10 What error? Get it working via command line then use the working command in RCB. RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - malte - 2013-12-11 g3kk0 Wrote:I can confirm the import is making it into the DB as I've used SQLite Browser to check.Very strange. I can't find any additional and related errors in the log file, so I don't know what is happening. Could you try a clean install of RCB? Also delete the RCB folder in addon_settings. Sorry for the hassle but I have no other idea atm. forumjoe Wrote:If I quit out of RCB at this stage, I can't reopen it or else I get the same error. If I go into the config.xml and delete all references to the MAME Rom collection and the MAME scraper, it works as it used to, but without the MAME collection.Yes, please upload the contents of your files to xbmclogs.com and post the link here. Otherwise we can't see what is happening. aoaaron Wrote:now all i need is advice please on how to boot dolphin games up. keeps coming up with an error.If you have issues with a specific emulator you should first follow these steps RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - bs0d - 2013-12-12 Does anyone else have an issue with RCB not showing the local HD when identifying the path to the Emulator? All I see is my external HD and Fusion loader (via XBMCHUB). RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - teeedubb - 2013-12-12 You need to add it as a source - in the file manager from memory. RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - bs0d - 2013-12-12 Thanks that worked like a charm. Right now I have 3 key issues (FYI - I'm using the mednafen emulator (thanks teeedubb for suggestion)): • How can I tell RBC to open game in full screen? Currently opens approx. 1/6th size, top left corner. • Why doesn't it have any sound? How can I fix this? • When RBC launches a ROM, the keyboard becomes inactive. I have to physically reboot machine - it essentially locks me out. Provided this, can someone point me in the right direction for drivers & instructions to use the xbx 360 remote? Does it work with mednafen? These are probably simple issues, but figured this would be the best place to find an answer. Thanks again RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - teeedubb - 2013-12-12 You need to use a command line switch to set full screen and the full screen resolution. The mednafen documentation is very informative. Get it working via command line first then use that info with rcb. Sound can be a major pita in Linux. From memory you need another command line switch to select the audio device. How exactly are you running the emulators( os, solo mode, xbmc session? etc) RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - bs0d - 2013-12-12 I just pointed XBMC to the mednafen.exe as part of the config creation at first start-up for RBC. All of this is ran in XBMC Frodo. I have the XBMCBuntu Linux package. RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - teeedubb - 2013-12-12 Running games/emulators ontop of xbmc has always given me problems, so I use solo mode, but it wont work with the xbmcbuntu session in xbmcbuntu. You can open a openbox(a lightweight desktop) session to run the emulator or simply use to run xbmc/your games - see my signature for a quick howto.

Sometimes when I launch a PC game, it launches with no sound. RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - Daeymon - 2013-12-16 I've been trying to build a coverflow skin. Basically, using a transparent wraplist on top of images which change based on how you interact with the wraplist. It's derived from what others have done in standard skins, but never implemented on RCB. I'm having trouble getting animations on the images to work, I can't seem to be able to get the conditional, visible or hidden type animations to trigger. I'm trying to get the animations to trigger on Container.OnNext and Container.OnPrevious but with no luck. Is this a limitation in RCB? RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - malte - 2013-12-16 aoaaron Wrote:hey this didnt work whatsoever.. .does anyone have any fixes for multiple disc games?Usually the builtin multi disc selector should work. It depends on your file naming and your configuration of "Disk indicator" in "Edit Rom Collection" dialog. Common error is that "Disk indicator" works as a regular expression and users use a wrong value. You could show me your naming scheme and I could try to get it working. bs0d Wrote:Anyone able to resolve issues of no sound and the keyboard locking up after launching a ROM?Did you try to use solo mode in combination with Openbox like teeedubb suggested?

RCB is just using XBMCs skinning engine but I am not sure if there are any limitations for addons in general. I know for sure that you can use conditional animations as I am using them myself. Not sure about Container.OnNext and OnPrevious. Maybe you are checking the wrong container? RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - bs0d - 2013-12-17 I can't use solo mode because I'm using XBMCBuntu. And installing STEAM through openbox doesn't allow me to play ROM's. My goal is to get Rom Collection Browser to actually do what it sounds like it's suppose to. I found this thread which shows some promise, but it's a bit dated: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=86630&pid=703394#pid703394 Has anyone used the code that user bedek describes: Code: /usr/bin/killall -STOP xbmc.bin I also read of users having success with this line to correct sound issues: Code: -sounddevice "sexyal-literal-default" or, another option via bedek, from same thread link above): Code: pasuspender -- mednafen game_file.nes I haven't tested that yet- I'm not sure if that's something you pass along with the %ROM% line in RCB or if it could be added to the above mentioned script to be an "out-of-the-box" solution. If so, we should add it to the Wiki page for RCB as mednafen seems to be a widely used emulator through this platform. Is this a file you can have ROM Collection browser execute while opening a ROM? I'd like to learn how to implement this. I'm just new and not up to speed on perhaps some of the common assumed things. Thanks |
