When I have the extension set to lnk (L) I can add items from the folder, but the shortcuts break.
When I have the extension set to anything else (ink for example), I can't add items, but the shortcuts work.

I am working with an app that controls the Alsamixer to change the volume. Alsamixer does however not effect the actual volume (neither within XBMC nor from Spotify).
Can it be scripted so that when launching a program via the Launcher that the Alsamixer is used?

Normally is you put it at "Stop", XBMC and its audio engine will stop to control alsa and you may be able to use Alsamixer. If its not woring try the other options ("Let Play" or "Pause").

When I switch to the games section it shows default and then all the systems I created. If I change the Advanced Launcher settings to say "Hide Default" when I select games it just shows ... like attempting to go to the parent directory.

It seemed to do it in other skins that support a games main menu function.

Any ideas?

Ok... so your problem come from your XBMC/System configuration. Normally this XBMC 12.x problem has been fixed by version 12.2 of XBMC. Are you using this version? If so, check that your XBMC audio output is set to analogic (even is you are using a digital one).

Also... are you using PulseAudio on your linux system?

I'm currently messing around with Advanced Launchers, and am very pleased with the results so far. However, I have a few questions:

First, I am messing around with a zsnes launcher. I have the basics covered, the launcher displays my ROM collection, and run the emulator as intended.
However, I am not completely satisfied with the results the scrapers return in "automatic mode". For those familiar with them, my ROMs are using GoodTools names (ie: Final Fantasy III (U) (V1.1) [!].zip).
The issue is, some games are not always recognized properly. For instance, Donkey Kong Country (U) (V1.2) [!].zip is recognized as Donkey Kong Country 3.
So my question is, which scrapers and settings are you using for ROMs in GoodSets "format"?

Second, can you "force" the scrapers to parse the country information and retrieve the appropriate boxcovers/fanarts/whatever when possible?

Third, I was browsing the gallery, and I stumbled upon this screenshot:



How do you do that! I haven't been able to find any information regarding that feature!

Thank you for your time! Et merci pour l'add-on!

Edit: I guess I could switch to the "No-Intro" ROMSet, but I'm not too sure I'll have better results...

(2013-08-01, 08:06)xbmcmod101 Wrote: I have a question regarding how I would manually sort items using the Advanced Launcher in XBMC.

For instance:

I have three games sorted in this order: Super Star Wars, Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi and Super Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.

You'll notice above that the games are out of order. This is do to the "THE" in Empire Strikes Back throwing off the sort order. I already file my games by moving the first "THE" in the title to the end with a comma (IE: Simpson's, The: Bart's Nightmare). However, I do not want to do this for the subtitles here.

So, is there a way to go into Advanced Launcher and manually sort items and move them to where I'd like them to appear in the list?

Thnx
