I have a very strange Problem with ADVL and Windows 8. If i start ZSNes outside of XBMC the Emulator has sound.
If I start ZSNES inside XBMC with ADVL I have no sound ! If I make a setting in ADVL (modify Data Infos) and start
a game I have sound. But after the Emulator has finished there is the same Problem ?? Whats going on ?? Confused

Have you desactivated XBMC GUI sounds?

Chrome must be closed when you want to start it into kiosk mode otherwise it will only open in a new tab.


RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - rubylaser - 2014-10-25

I'm having trouble scraping images and metadata for my ROMS. I have about 250 SNES games and I made a launcher for them and can successfully launch them via retroarch. I wanted to have all artwork and metadata for the games, so I set up each area of the SNES launcher on automatic and tried Thegamesdb for my scraper for info, thumbs, and then tried to use HTBackdrops for my fanart. After a few tries with getting no results, I realized that thegamesdb.net seems to be down right now. I also realized that HTbackdrops changed their URL from .com to .org. I edited the HTbackdrops scraper python file to reflect this change, but I still get no fanart (I'm not a python dev, so I assume that the returned array needs to be modified to work correctly).

Finally, since thegamesdb.net is down and only returns results from Cloudflare, which doesn't seem to work for their API. So, I switched my scraper to GamesFAQs. After scraping about 10 titles, my ip address has been banned for abuse.

Has anyone tried to recently scrape ROMs? Because, I'm not having any luck getting either metadata or artwork. I appreciate any help.

With Chrome Closed I run: "chrome.exe --kiosk "http://www.google.com.ar" but open in a normal window.

Update: I didn´t realized that I have Chrome in memory even if I closed it, so fu finishing close app work. Thanks

So is there a walkthrough of how to install this and configure it to work with various emulators? I saw a big one for Android but not for Windows. Maybe there's one buried in here but at 419 pages... Sheesh.

Thanks!


RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Kelemvor - 2014-10-29

Well, I think I stumbled my way through adding it and an NES emulator but when I do the Add Items, it doesn't find anything. I'm following this tutorial and don't know what I might have done wrong. Anyone have any ideas?

The XBMC.log files shows it's looking in the right folder and all the files end with .nes which is how it's configured.

I found that if I do the Manualy Add Item option it shows me all the files right there and I can add them individually. I'm trying to use the Scan for New Items option which is what comes back with 0 for some reason.

Are you sure you have indicated the right extension file, in your case : nes and not .nes

I am trying to launch Hyperspin using a batch file, but for some reason it's not closing XBMC when Hyperpsin launches. Do I need to enter an argument to get this to work properly? This is what my batch file looks like:

taskkill /C /IM XBMC.exe
HyperSpin.exe

I also have the batch file in the HyperSpin folder w/ the executable on the C drive

Instead of using taskkill, use pskill, which give better results : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896683.aspx
Download pstools and install the executables file into C:/windows directory. Then modify your script like this :

Code:
pskill XBMC.exe
HyperSpin.exe

Is the http://www.gwenael.org/forum/ site down, or is it just for me?
No mirror or such?
