RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - atsumori - 2015-09-14 (2015-09-08, 18:17)bleakassassin Wrote: Is anyone else finding that the GameFAQs scraper no longer works properly? I've had it drop in and out intermittently in the past, but I've got a feeling that the issue might be more permanent this time. You'll get blocked if you autoscrape but if you go through one by one you should be able to scrape no problem. Just set Advanced Launcher scraper settings to "None" and then once all the games have been added, scrape the information through the game info menu. I have found an issue with the google scrapers and likely other scrapers. It seems there are some forbidden characters (for example "%") that when included in the name will cause the scrape to fail (at least for images). This is incredibly annoying. RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Magic815 - 2015-09-14 So I had a couple questions regarding Advanced Launcher (one general and one specific). First, I see old posts referencing a Wiki - does one exist anymore? I see that the latest version has to be pulled from GitHub, but outside of this "closed" thread, I don't see where further discussions are held. Is there an outside forum or website that is now the default place for actual development and discussion of this addon? And then more specifically, I'm trying to get some help with launching a specific emulator game from PCSX2. I see previous posts mention using the '--nogui' command to make sure that when "esc" is pressed, the emulator is completely closed out (as opposed to just the game emulator window). Is this something I can add to the launcher attributes inside Kodi/Advanced Launcher? Or does that need to be put into a script/bat file/etc, and then that file is what gets called by Advanced Launcher? The reason I ask is that for my emulator games through Dolphin, all I have to do is add "/b /e" before the ROM call-out and it will successfully exit out and go back into Kodi when I'm done playing the game. Could I do something similar with PCSX2 games where I somehow utilize "/b /e" and "--nogui" so that it will do the same thing? If anyone has the exact syntax, I'm all ears!

Lo siento, hablo Español un poco. En Ingles: I launch all my PC games (Steam/Origin) from a single launcher. This is a .bat file which uses shortcuts to each game which are stored in a single folder and can then be scraped into Advanced Launcher. I got it from these forums and for the life of me I can't find it again. I will upload the .bat file when I get to my PC. Found it! Just follow these instructions http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=85724&pid=848837#pid848837 RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - KidVulcan - 2015-09-19 Hi, first of amazing work. I love this addon! I saw someone ells mention using this to launch MUGEN but I couldn't find the results. I have an .exe on my Desktop called "NMTE.exe" but when I try to point AdvancedLauncher there I cant find the program??

RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - mccorkled - 2015-09-20 I am wondering if anyone knows how to get rid of the second larger box that says it is "opening stream" Also, why is the advanced launcher icon not showing up?

Fantastico! De nada. RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Frenchtoast - 2015-10-13 Hello guys, I have been looking for few weeks now but can't find any solution. On my Amazon fire Tv running isengard (or jarvis) non rooted when I try to setup advanced launcher I get the errors : "Cannot create backup" , "Cannot create launchers.xml" Help please: Code: 19:29:00 T:1768512792 NOTICE: -->Python Interpreter Initialized<-- I have tried through installing Jarvis to move kodi database to external usb. It worked very well and I thought that advanced launchers wouldn't have any more permissions restriction as I thought it was the problem here. Still having the same issue Help please it drives me mad ! RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Jachin99 - 2015-10-23 Is it possible to use a high res image for thumbnails or will the program scale them down every time? I am trying to create a Netflix launcher, and I've tried several images from around the internet but they all end up looking chopy or distorted. RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - onlinespending - 2015-10-23 (2015-10-13, 19:02)Frenchtoast Wrote: Hello guys, Yeah, I mentioned these same issues a year ago when I tried using Advanced Launcher on the Fire TV. Brought them to the attention of the developer, Angelscry, but sadly it looks like they haven't been fixed.

How do you do to obtain it? Which version of XBMC are your using? With wich skin?Ok... I have found what you are talking about. The problem comes from the XBMC favourite script that is not able to create correct favourite for Advanced Launcher items. The script is not able to make difference between media and application. To fix this you will have to edit the xbmc/userdata/favourites.xml file and replace Advanced Launcher favourites PlayMedia() calls by RunPlugin() calls, like this : RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - markzilla - 2015-11-25 i am really dissapointed in advanced launcher. All I want to use it for is to launch a bash script, but that stupid "opening stream" message will not go away. I have tried everything, from modifying my favourites (PlayMedia > RunPlugin) and even removed the favourite from favourties.xml. I have created new launchers, everything. As soon as you add the launcher to favourites, this silly message shows up. Please, I know this thread is closed, but please get rid of that damn message! RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - UsefulG - 2015-11-25 @markzilla Look in the Settings for AL there is a show notification option which hides the opening stream/ launching popup. RE: [CLOSED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - markzilla - 2015-11-25 @UsefulG Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately the option "Activate 'Launching Application' notification" is deselected, as in "not doing that" but it is doing that. Please forgive my earlier post - I was tired and grumpy. This is an awesome plugin and I'll just learn to live with a silly message that doesn't close when the stream starts lol. I'll just keep closing it, its not that bad. |
