I have done some searching and I think this is the case. The Modern/Metro apps must need explorer running.
This is the error I get when running the Oblytile shortcut (outside of Advanced launcher)

As soon as I start explorer the error goes away and the shortcut works fine.

only save this patebin on a notepad and save it with xml extension: http://pastebin.com/a2M7iA5S

open XML (recommended Notepad ++) and go to the line 80 and change

Ps: Appdata is a hide folder

restart XBMC

Angelscry thank you for this link, very helpful!

However i still cannot figure what's the command for toggle overlay.
Code:
Return launcher or item finished/unfinished statut (aka watched/unwatched).
ListItem.overlay



RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - apazr - 2014-08-31

Hopefully someone can help?


I have windows 8.1 on my pc. I am using 13.2 xbmc with advanced launcher. I have used oblytile to create desktop shortcuts from my metro apps. I have created the advanced launchers with xbmc. When I open up one of these created launchers it will take me to the metro app as planned., I can navigate around the metro apps with xbmc perfect. But if I try to play a video from let's say watch espn I get an error message: "failed to play video". If I try to play something from netflix I get an error meessage saying something is not set up properly in my windows 8.1 to play protected media. It gives some sort of error on any video I try to play thru a metro app and xbmc.

I have tried using a full windowed screen in stead of a true full screen and that does not help.

Now if I immediiately exit xbmc and go to my desktop and open one of these shortcuts made by obly tile (lets say netflix) it opens and plays the media perfect. Same with watch espn and my other metro apps opened from the obly tile shortcut.

What am I doing wrong here?

There is no specific command. You just have to change the listitem.overlay value between "6" and "7".


RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - jwimsett - 2014-09-03

I had a few problems setting up my emulators last night - I'm hoping I can get a few answers here.

First, after I setup all of the paths and named all of the extensions I went to add item and auto scan. It found 1 of maybe 7 roms (.zip) in the directory I pointed to. After that I had to do each of the remaining 6 manually. I didn't have to rename them or change directories, just find it and choose it. It did ask me to choose from "arcade, NES etc. though. After it found the .zip file I had to find the thump and artwork manually too. Again, I just clicked the top selections and had it go out and find the proper files online and import them.

Is there a setting I messed in Advanced Launcher? I have it set to NFO + Scraper for collection method, Automatic for import mode and I tried multiple scraper sources. The other settings are default.

Second, I'm trying to figure out how to edit the controller file to exit the emulator via controller. I have no experience editing files though. This is all very new to me.

Win 8.1
JNES emulator
xbox 360 wireless controller

Hi angels, it's me again!!!!

When I put a game online Launcher (like Lineage II, Blade and Soul, Scarlet Blade) I have this error message: Falha no Script!:addon.py. only with game launchers, with traditional exe, I don't have any problem... It's a new error, because Scarlet Blade was opening before!

can help me?

Fixed this last night

I had named the associated files extensions as .zip instead of zip. That fixed the recognizing of all the games.

I also replaced JNES with Nestopia which gives me an option on remapping the exit key.

I don't understand. There is no differences between online game launchers and "traditional" game, they are all executable files (.exe). They are started exactly the same way and you may not have errors. Please post the content of your launchers.xml file to see how you have set up your online game launchers.

Hi, long time user but it's been awhile. Is there a way to batch add an entire directory of PC games to XBMC ADVANCED LAUNCHER? Or must it be done one by one?
