RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - amb7247 - 2012-12-24 Angelcry, I got to say thanks for your suggestion to the Autoit. I know this is a year old from when you posted but it works great in WIndows 8. I went ahead and made a bd.com in in there I put in: @echo off "C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD12\Launcher-PowerDVD12.exe" (To be clear, Launcher-PowerDVD12.exe was created and compiled by AutoIt) So when I put a bluray disc in, it loads Launcher-PowerDVD12.exe. Inside the autoit script, it contains the following lines: Run ( "C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD12\PDVDLaunchPolicy.exe AUTOPLAY BD H:\" ) ProcessWaitClose ( "PDVDLaunchPolicy.exe" ) ProcessWaitClose ( "PowerDVD12.exe" ) ProcessWaitClose ( "PowerDVDCinema12.exe" ) WinSetState ( "XBMC", "", @SW_MAXIMIZE ) In the first line you see, xbmc loads PowerDVD Launch Policy executable then it says to autoplay the bluray disc on the H Drive that contains the bluray disc. After I exit powerdvd, autoit waits until all processes are ended and it switches back to xbmc what is running in the background. No user interaction needed to go back to xbmc. So when I build my new system. I'll have to: 1) Install XBMC 2) Copy XBMC folder contents to the new computer after XBMC is installed. Overwrite all files (As long as the program is the same version) 3) Install Autoit. Copy Autoit script. 4) Install PowerDVD 12 Ultra. Put Created compiled autoit Launcher-PowerDVD12.exe (that autoit compiled and created) into the powerdvd folder. 5) Make XBMC load on startup 6) Edit BD.rom and autoit script to reflect new drive letter on HTPC (going to build soon). Seems simple enough. Hope this helps others.

Thank you amb7247 for sharing! RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - harSon - 2012-12-25 Hey again. I just realized that when I launch into Windows Media Center/Netflix, it doesn't work right since I have EventGhost wired to utilize XBMC. I don't want to kill/suspend EventGhost, since I want to be able to exit with my remote. So I made a different EventGhost profile for Netflix, but I'm having trouble constructing a batch file to Suspend XBMC, Exit/Relaunch EventGhost into the Netflix compatible profile, Resume XBMC when Netflix is closed and Exit/Relaunch into XBMC Event Ghost profile. This works individually for changing EventGhost profiles: Code: cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\EventGhost\" So I tried something like this: Code: nircmd win min process XBMC.exe But it doesn't seem to launch the EventGhost profiles. Any help with the batch file? Or perhaps an Autohotkey or Autoit script that does the same thing? RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - amb7247 - 2012-12-25 Seems my only problem as of now is XBMC 12 RC 2 not playing DVD's automatically even though it is checked. On Windows 8 btw. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2012-12-25 (2012-12-25, 01:02)harSon Wrote: Hey again.According to EventGhost website (http://www.eventghost.org/docs/commandline.html) you need to indicate de argument -file into your command line to specify a new XML configuration file. Also when you open/suspend/close applications into a certain order be sure the redo the opposite action into the inverse order. Code: nircmd win min process XBMC.exe RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - jjmucker - 2012-12-25 hi guys, sorry if this is in the wrong section but do you know if i can open IE fullscreen using advanced launcher, i managed to set t up to open ok, but its not fullscreen? many thanks RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2012-12-25 (2012-12-25, 01:25)jjmucker Wrote: hi guys, sorry if this is in the wrong section but do you know if i can open IE fullscreen using advanced launcher, i managed to set t up to open ok, but its not fullscreen?Use -k argument to force IE to open into fullscreen : http://www.gwenael.org/xbmc/index.php?title=Internet_Explorer RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - DocMAX - 2012-12-26 Hi, can you please disable the annoying promting of where my thumb/fanart paths are? I don't understand it anyway... RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Oxize - 2012-12-26 I am using Aeon Nox 4 atm with XBMC Frodo RC2. In Advanced Launcher i made an script (bat) which loads an Snes9x emulator with Super Mario World in fullscreen. The only problem is, when i download fanart or set an thumb, cover for it, it loads the launcher agian to select an excutable. At this point you are in an infinite loop and you cant exit it. You can only exit it if you dont select any fanart/cover/thumb at all. Edit: When you downloaded fanart/thumbs for it and selected it and you go back to the namelist (where you can start you programs). On this point, if you directly startup the program you are getting in a infinite loop. But, if you go from the namelist after setting up the fanart/thumbs and you go back to the home menu and then again into programs => Advancer Launcher => Super Mario World, it is loading and not getting into an infinite loop. Its load the fanart/thumbs also.

I don't understand it anyway...If you do not know what thumb/fanarts paths are, there is a user guide that will explain you what they are : http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3 If you do not want to use thumb/fanarts with Advanced Launcher set Thunbs and Fanarts collecting method options to none into the add-on settings or when the question is prompted just bypass it by clicking on ESC key. If you do not want to use the thumb/fanarts functionnality of the add-on... maybe it will be a better move to not use Advanced Launcher and prefer Launcher or Executor add-ons.

Seems that the recent version of Frodo RC2 (2012/12/25) have bring some instabilities into Advanced Launcher that could conduct into some case to the wipeout of the Advanced Launcher data. I strongly suggest to Frodo RC2 users to make a backup of your launchers.xml file before using recent version of Frodo. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - LAW-Mastermind - 2012-12-27 I´m using Frodo RC2 and the problem is, I can´t get Thumbs to work and it only shows the Fanart for my first PC game.

What is not working with thumbs? You cannot see them? You cannot found them using the scrapers? Could you please describe exactly what you are doing to reproduce the problem?

It was surely a bug that has occured only on a specific GIT version of Frodo and that was quickly fixed by a following version. That not always easy for me to make a support on develloping versions of XBMC... mostly when nobody use exactly the same version, Thanks for the feedback.(2012-12-27, 17:27)Angelscry Wrote: Using a more recent night-build version of Frodo (12.0-RC2 Git:20121226-7d8c737) I'm not anymore able to reproduce the problem.
