I am looking for the toggle option you are referring to, but can't seem to locate it. Under "Programs" I highlight Advanced Launcher, press "C", Add-on Settings, and go to the advanced options but there doesn't appear to be this option there. Am I looking in the wrong location? Thanks!
Yes, you must higlight a launcher instead of the Advanced Launcher add-on to have access to this context menu.
Version 1.10.8 : This new version of Advanced Launcher modify the
Toggle XBMC Fullscreen option that was a little confusing. This option is now named
Toggle XBMC into Windowed Mode and is set by default to OFF. This option is only fully functional under Windows operating systems if the
Use a fullscreen window option is activated into XBMC system settings rather than
true fullscreen option.
Changelog :- Set Toggle XBMC in windowed mode default option to OFF.
- Rename Toggle XBMC fullscreen option Toggle XBMC in windowed mode.

I seem to have a little problem with it and I don't know if it's normal or not.
The games and emulators launch fine but when I exit the game I don't go back to xbmc, i'm dropped on the desktop and I have to either click on the taskbar icon or do an alt-tab to return to xbmc. Is this normal?
First make sure that you have activated the Use a fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen option that is present into XBMC system settings. Next, into Advanced Launcher, go into the context menu ("C" key) > Edit launcher > Advanced Modifications > and set Toggle XBMC Fullscreen option to OFF. It may solve your problem.
Ah I see... I'll have to experiment a bit since when I activate that option my movies becomes jerky. Maybe it's a combination of things...
Everything is good now. Works like a charm!
I'm having a huge problem with Advanced Launcher. I'm currently running Frodo RC2, and if I launch a PC game from Advanced Launcher, it works fine. But if I try to open an emulator launcher, i can't even scroll through the list. XMBC stops responding and eventually everything crashes.

I do not notice this problem. I need more information to help you :
- Which Frodo version of XBMC do you have exactly? Window? Linux? GIT Built?
- Which version of Advanced Launcher are you using? 1.7.6 or last one 1.10.8?
- Which skin are you using? Do you also encounter this problem with the default skin Confluence?
- Could you post here the content of the XBMC.log file after the crash occurs (with XBMC debug mod activated if possible)?
- Could you also port here the content of your launchers.xml file (could be corrupted) ?
Thank you for your quick response.
I am running XBMC Frodo RC2 on Windows 7
The version of Advanced Launcher that I am using just updated today to 1.10.8
I am using Aeon MQ 4 as my primary skin but yes, it does also occur using Confluence
xbmc.log

Okay, I uninstalled XBMC and deleted all related data. I installed a fresh copy of RC2 for Windows 7 and installed Advanced Launcher. Everything worked fine. Then I scrapped for data and all hell broke loose. Once I scrap for data, I lose functionality.

What do you mean by "lose functionality"?
After I open the list and try to scroll through, XBMC freezes and wont close. Eventually the computer locks up completely and I have to restart.

How many items do you have into your list?
79, but it worked fine in Eden. btw, THANKS for your awesome work on Advanced Launcher, your assistance!!

I have tried it several time with last RC2 version of XBMC on Windows and Linux system but I'm not able to reproduce your problem. Maybe the problem is specifically linked to the RC2 version of XBMC ou are using and it will be fixed by the current night-builf version or next RC.
Okay I figured it out. Whenever the scrapers used AllGame (default scraper), no album art or fanart was actually downloaded even though it said it did. Also, in the launchers.xml it had the rom file listed as both fanart and thumbnail. I started over using TheGamesDB as the scraper and all is well now. Also, I didn't notice until just now that there was a help forum for Advanced Launcher. Sorry to bring it up in your release thread. Thanks though!
