RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2013-03-31 (2013-03-30, 22:42)pathartl Wrote: 473 pages in, but still thanks for the plugin. As others have had, I have a major issue right now where the file launcher doesn't work. I've tried both the latest git version and the version from the repo, and both tested on 12.0 and 12.1. It will create the launcher, but it won't scan the games. It just shows up like a standalone launcher. If I try running it, nothing happens and there are no errors in the log file.You need to select the launcher, go into it context menu, select "Add Items" and select "Scan for New Items".

Oh, duh It works on the repo version just fine. Thanks!

Then select the YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS-MILLISEC-launchers.xml file just before your problem occurs, then your launchers list will be restored : http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=469(2013-03-29, 13:04)Angelscry Wrote: If you lost your launchers list, Advanced Launcher include a backup feature (into Addon Settings > Backup/Debug) to recover it. Concerning the error script message, you will need to post the content of the xbmc.log file (using pastebin services), after the error message occurrs, to see what happen. Also which versions of XBMC and Advanced Launcher are you using? thank you so much.... its working now. much appreciated. respect Screen Saver issue - Firas.AlShafei - 2013-03-31 I ran into a problem where XBMC would stay in windowed mode after exiting an emulator. The problem only seemed to occur if i played for a while. I went over your code and watched the debug log and found out that it was screensaver related. It seems that XBMC ignores your first command after returning, it uses it to clear its screensaver state instead of actually taking the FullScreen command. You can test it by setting the screensaver timeout in xbmc to 1 minute, wait until it's idle, and issue a JSON command to toggle fullscreen. The command will not execute while XBMC is in idle mode - you will have to execute it twice, once to clear the idle mode and once to actually toggle fullscreen. I was able to fix this in my launch script by detecting if xbmc is idle and issuing an input, this serves to bring it out of idle mode before Advanced Launcher issues the toggle fullscreen command. I just figured i would share my launch script in here - might help someone else who's seeing the same issue. Code: #!/bin/bash Usage Requirements: - Enable JSON-RPC - Replace the username/password (xbmc:xbmc) in the script curl commands with your own, or remove them completely (remember to remove the -u parameter too) Hope this helps someone else RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - wiggo - 2013-04-01 Hi All I hope someone can help me. I'm running Windows 8 x64, Frodo 12.1. I recently installed Advance Launcher and have got it working perfectly to run PC game exe files. The problem I am having now, is that I can't get the PCSX (Playstaion 1) emulator to work. The point I get to is when I click the thumbnail for the game, the XBMC gui stays fullscreen and then PCSX loads up but doesn't run the Rom. I've checked the Wiki page for the exceptions and so on, so I know I've got that part of it set up correctly. If anyone can help me, I'd be forever in your debt. Kind regards Wiggo RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - bakito - 2013-04-01 @ wiggo try this: http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=13 cheers RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - mmstompin - 2013-04-01 I know this is a newbie question, but I successfully loaded the launcher, added a game (Angry Birds - PC) and got it to launch. However, the XBMC window pops back to the front position 3 secs after the game launches and will continue to do so if I try to bring the game (or any other program running in the background at the time) to the front position. Running Frodo 12.1 on Win 7. What command or check box did I forget in order to keep the game in front of the XBMC screen until I am ready to return to the media center program? Thanks for any help in advance! M.. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - wiggo - 2013-04-01 (2013-04-01, 03:37)bakito Wrote: @ wiggo Awesome job. Thanks very much mate RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - wiggo - 2013-04-01 Hi Can anyone tell me how I incorporate the Autoit3 file for the PCSX2 Emulator please? I opened up notepad, inserted the info from the wiki page, changed the directory locations and so on, but I'm stuck with what I have to do after that. Any help would again be appreciated. Kind regards Wiggo RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - pettergulbra - 2013-04-01 Hi I have setup AL to execute Chrome to launch web pages, but the problem is that it starts to open them more than one time. So I get very many tabs. Is there an way to fix these. I have set it as IBM/PC compatible in the launcher. This is my launcher xml: Launcher XML The first launcher, I cant remember seen this problem. But not sure. And I have tried to find the problem in the favourites that makes them open in an blank area before they open, and then need to push back button when Im back in XBMC, but cant find these text lines in my favourites file. From this page: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=85724&pid=1333211#pid1333211 Favourites RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - bakito - 2013-04-01 @ wiggo you have to compile your autoit script to get an exe. - first get autoit : http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/ - make your autoit script with the info provided in the wiki ( with your file adress ) then compil it, you get an exe that will be your launcher for the ps2. cheers RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - wiggo - 2013-04-01 (2013-04-01, 20:41)bakito Wrote: @ wiggo Hi Thanks for the response. Do I need to paste the script into notepad and save as an autoscript file (au3)? I've tried that you see and when i double click on the exe file, nothing happens. The same happens when I go through XBMC. This is the way I've got the au3 file structured. http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=9jD9wae2 Many thanks for your help Wiggo RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2013-04-02 (2013-04-01, 09:01)mmstompin Wrote: I know this is a newbie question, but I successfully loaded the launcher, added a game (Angry Birds - PC) and got it to launch.Are you using XBMC Launcher at the same time? (2013-04-01, 21:03)wiggo Wrote:The .au3 script need to receive a command line parameter (iso path). So it is normal that it is not working when you double click on it. This script only works into XBMC if your are starting it form a file launcher (not a stand alone one).(2013-04-01, 20:41)bakito Wrote: @ wiggo RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2013-04-02 (2013-04-01, 16:58)pettergulbra Wrote: HiI don' know if it could be related but for the argument must be something like this -kiosk "http://www.kanal5play.se" instead of just kanal5play.se. How do you quit Chrome to return to XBMC? For your favourites problem. Which version of Advanced Launcher are you suing? Could you post here the line of your favourites.xml corresponding to your Chrome launcher? RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - wiggo - 2013-04-02 Thanks for the reply Angelscry. Do you think you could write a script for me to copy into Autoit based on the following directory of my Roms please? E:\Games\PSOne Roms\Roms And the install folder for the Emulator itself is shown on the image below. XBMC has been installed to the usual place. I really hope you can help me out here.
