  • listitem.setInfo : Title, Plot, Studio, Genre, Premiered, Writer, Trailer
Because XBMC plugins Programs do no have specific dedicated infolabels we must used tv shows infolabels. So, Writer infolabel is used for Game System and Trailer infolabel is used for extrafanart.

I cant get plot, studio, genre or premiered to show up. Huh

Prior show plot, studio, genre and premiered infos, those ones must be first scrapped and stored into the launchers.xml file of advanced launcher. If the plot, studio, genre and premiered infos do not exist... nothing will be displayed.

It depend if you have indicated or not to scrap information, thumbs and fanarts, from where you have scrap the information (WWW source), if the scrapper have found the item or if the information exit for this item. Oo

Version 1.4.2 : This new version bring a fix for the search engine. When searching for a specific category (like game platform of genre), Advanced Launcher was previously returning partial matchings instead of exact matching. For example return Action and Action Adventure when you were selected Action option. It is now fixed. This version also bring the Italian translation of the add-on, made by Baldios.

ChangeLog:
  • Fix categories search query (with exact match).
  • Add italian translation (thanks to Baldios).

It maybe not only related to XBMC but also to the x server system. When you start XBMC you also start xorg and maybe a windows manager (i do not know if XBMCLive use one). You have to be sure that Xorg and the windows manager not also use a sleep timer through a power management tools or a screensaver.

If it is really XBMC which control the sleep timer, you can try to close XBMC (using a bash script) before starting mame. If it is not XBMC which control the sleep timer, you can try to disable the Advanced power management (APM), using bash script, before starting mame. For exemple like this : http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/disable-advanced-power-management/

Please note that by default, the launcher won't return after launching the game from Dolphin, I use an AutoIt script for that.

anychance you could share the script you used for it. I got one working for snes9x but I cant get dolphin to load.

You will also found useful information on Autoit scripts dedicated to Advanced launcher here : http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewforum.php?id=2. By the way, concerning your problem, I do not think that you need a script to fix it. I think that : activating the "Use a fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen" option that is present into XBMC system settings will fix the problem.
