Works a charm! Make sure you have latest Advanced Launcher though if you're using Frodo (ie, not just the old one in the repository) RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - harSon - 2012-12-15 (2012-12-15, 00:14)bluesky2006 Wrote:(2012-12-14, 21:09)Angelscry Wrote: Have you read this thread? http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=349 Your Steam doesn't get messed up by XBMC running in the background?

It's a very comprehensive and easy to use package. EDIT: This is from the text file that comes with the download: Quote:There are 2 versions RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - harSon - 2012-12-15 Yeah, I had seen that, and I'll try again when I get home but it seemed to close XBMC for good instead of suspending it and booting it back after Steam had been closed. Maybe you have to Alt+f4 out of it, and not simply close it through the software to have XBMC boot back up? Edit: Yup, it boots back up if you Alt+f4 RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - sudopinion - 2012-12-15 Here's something in Autohotkey that might work. I don't have steam, so i can't really check. Code: #NoEnv RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - harSon - 2012-12-15 I think this may be my second to last question (I truly appreciate your guys' help, this is a lot more difficult than I was expecting!): Is it possible to have a single batch do more than one thing? I am attempting to use SSF Emulator (Sega Saturn), which requires the game/iso to be mounted. So a script/batch that mounts and unmounts an iso upon starting is needed, which I founded on this forum: Code: "C:\Program Files (x86)\DAEMON Tools Lite\DTLite.exe" -mount 0,%1 But I also need help constructing a batch file that will also A) Suspend XBMC and B) Launch SSF in fullscreen: Code: pssuspend "XBMC.exe" Can I create a single batch files that does both? I also found an Autoit script on these forums for the mounting/unmounting of an image for SSF: Code: If $CmdLine[0] == 1 Then Is there anything I can add to this to make it suspend XBMC and launch the emulator in fullscreen? And I can't seem to get Mupen64 0.5.1 to work. I start it up and XBMC freezes up until I minimize and close Mupen 64. This is the batch code I am using: Code: pssuspend "XBMC.exe" And here is my XBMC Log: http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=21219 RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - sudopinion - 2012-12-15 (2012-12-15, 05:13)harSon Wrote: I think this may be my second to last question (I truly appreciate your guys' help, this is a lot more difficult than I was expecting!): This is what my program RoM-Jacket generates for saturn: Code: CHCP 1252 The frontend uses a custom ahk executable that minimizes and suspends the fe until the launcher exits. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - patrikhuset - 2012-12-15 Hey! I'm not an expert at this at all, but i can't seem to start mednafen with advanced Launcher. Im running RaspBMC on a raspberry PI. i installed mednafen using "sudo apt-get install mednafen" In advanced launcher i added /usr/games/mednafen and it filled out the rest of the options for me automatically, except for me having to point out where my roms are. When i try to start mednafen all that appears is a circle (the loading symbol). Then nothing! Also when i try to configure the launcher and "add items", it scans my rom-folder and seem to find everything but it freezes in the process and says "0 items added" .. Where did i go wrong?

I think I have a similar problem, but there are no whitepsaces in my launchers.xml <id> tag for the firefox launcher I tried to create. I've used the OFFICIAL RC-1 and installed Advanced Launcher from within xbmc via the add-on browser (or what it's called...), I'm using xbmcbuntu frodo RC-1 so no git hub whatsoever, don't know which git version that should correspond to sorry since I never use those.

And that's the interest of batch to be able to make exactly what you want with your system like perform several task at the time. For your SSF problem, concerning fullscreen, I think that when is SSf into fullscreen (ALT+ENTER) and when you close it into this state (ALT+F4), then next time you will start SSF if will be again into fullscreen. So just put it into this state a first time, and all the other time it will start into fullscreen. Concerning your .BAT script to mount/unmount ISO files and suspend/restore XBMC, the script must look something like that : Code: pssuspend "XBMC.exe" (2012-12-15, 21:11)patrikhuset Wrote: I'm not an expert at this at all, but i can't seem to start mednafen with advanced Launcher.Are you using SMB paths? (2012-12-15, 22:51)gokudo Wrote:Thsat's a different problem. In your case your surely using an old/deprecated version of Advanced Launcher (version 1.7.6, that only works with Eden version of XBMC) with the Frodo version of XBMC. Install the last version of Advancec Launcher 1.10.7, and it may solve your problem.(2012-12-14, 21:09)Angelscry Wrote:(2012-12-14, 21:03)sudopinion Wrote: Using Frodo RC-1 with the latest version of advanced launcher on win7 x64.Which RC-1?

RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - mobile87 - 2012-12-16 I created this short cut netflix:// And added it to advanced launcher as per the instructions here for window8 metro apps. I can click on it from the desktop and it works fine . But from programs/advancedlauncher etc.. it doesn't do anything. wondering if there is way to create shortcut in xbmc that triggers a series of keystrokes For instance if I move the Netflix tile to the lower left hand corner of the start screen, now I can press "windows" then "enter" in succession and launch Netflix. Other combinations of arrows will give anything you want. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2012-12-16 (2012-12-16, 06:34)mobile87 Wrote: I created this short cutNo... It must work. It work like this on my Windows 8 system. Have you really created an explorer.exe files launcher based on .URL internet shortcuts? Are you using XBMC Launcher on your Windows 8 system? Could you post here the content of your launchers.xml file? (2012-12-16, 06:34)mobile87 Wrote: wondering if there is way to create shortcut in xbmc that triggers a series of keystrokesYou can create an AutoIt script, compile it into an executable file and start it from Advanced Launcher. The AutoIt script may looks like this : Code: Send("{LWIN}") But as I tell you the use of the netflix:// URL must work on your system.

Ok, i noticed that .nes wasnt added to the extension list. Got a new error though. when i try to start one of the roms i manually added it says "script failed: addon.py" RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - 3dhubiflieger - 2012-12-16 Hello, I have written a utility which can be easily configured. It is made between the Advanced Launcher and the programme to be started! In conjunction with Advanced Launcher is now the following possibilities: -fully automatic Score storage back button (joypad) configurable Screen is turned off when the programms starts (fewer windows) at the start of programs -easy to configure PC games can be run as an emulator (ROM) including assignable back button! -all parameters are freely configurable and customizable! -Joytokey.exe can be import for Keyboardcommands ! Check it out! I tested my program at Eden! I am always open for improvement! Please write me at KSieber@online.de for the program, if interrested! greetings Kevin Here is the download Link: https://rapidshare.com/files/2297412020/JOYSTARTEND.exe For configuration ..put my Programm in the same Folder as the Emulator. Select my Programm in XBMC Advanced Launcher as Emulator. Select the real Emulator as a Parameter in advanced Launcher ! I will do a Video soon ! |
