I don't get why my setup keeps asking to disable advanced launcher every time I start xbmc.
Well, in my case it's going worse.
I did a full uninstall of XBMC et reinstall it.
I have Avanced Launcher 1.12.2 and when I launch it, I have an error: Script Echec: Addon.py

Here is my log file: http://www.xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=1128

The problem is the same with Confluence
Confused... First time someone report me a bug like that. Could you check if the gamesys file is present into the xbmc/addons/plugin.program.advanced.launcher/resources/scrapers directory? This is the file containing the platforms list. If so... could you post its content here using pastebin service. Maybe the file has been corrupted.

Because the version hosted on the official XMBC repo is broken and XBMC want to disable it.... even if it is not the version you are using. Normally it only ask you one time to disable it... One thing you can try is to uninstall Advancedc Launcher and then reinstall it from my repository (not using direct download or manual install) .
Hi there.

My arguments: %rom% %romname%

My code:

Code:
#Include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#Include <WindowsConstants.au3>

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")

If $CmdLine[0] == 1 Then
    Run("D:\HTPC\Programs\nomousy\nomousy.exe /hide", "", @SW_HIDE)
    Run("D:\HTPC\Programs\autotaskbarhider\TaskBarHider.exe -hide", "", @SW_HIDE)
    GUICreate('MyGUI', @DesktopWidth, @DesktopHeight, 0, 0, BitOR($WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_TOPMOST))
    GUICtrlCreatePic('D:\HTPC\Games\PS2\play-station-2-logo.jpg', 0, 0, @DesktopWidth, @DesktopHeight)
    GUISetState()
    Run("pssuspend XBMC.exe", "", @SW_HIDE)
    Run ( '"D:\HTPC\Games\PS2\Emulator\pcsx2-5569-windows-x86\pcsx2-r5569.exe" --nogui --fullscreen "' & $CmdLine[1] & '" --cfgpath="D:\HTPC\Games\PS2\Inis\' & $CmdLine[2] & '"', "D:\HTPC\Games\PS2\Emulator\pcsx2-5569-windows-x86\" )
    While 2
            Sleep(100)
    WEnd
EndIf
Terminate

Func Terminate()
    GUISetState()
    Run("pssuspend -r XBMC.exe")
    WinWaitActive ("XBMC")
    ProcessClose ( "pcsx2-r5569.exe" )
    Run("nomousy.exe", "", @SW_HIDE)
    Run("TaskBarHider.exe -show -exit", "", @SW_HIDE)
    Exit 0
EndFunc

Funny thing is I get Autoit Error:

Line 656
Error:Error parsing function call.

There is no line 656. I tried everything but get my script to work.

Help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Try to not use paths containing special characters (like accentued characters). Advanced Launcher have some difficulties to manage them.

I actually quickly see 2 possible errors.
  • First, try to pass arguments like this "%rom%" "%romname%" instead of this %rom% %romname%. Both arguments will surely contain space into their paths or their name. If you want them to be detected has only 2 arguments, you need to use double quotes.
  • If you pass 2 arguments so the if statement determining the number of argument must be If $CmdLine[0] == 2 Then and not If $CmdLine[0] == 1 Then.
Thanks a lot. It starts now. I left arguments but changed cmd line.

I just exit with esc now....
I worked it out...

Is it possible to show a screenshot of the game im running instead of the logo (which is named like the iso and stored in a folder).

Cheers.

You just have to edit the item fanart image and make it point to your screenshot image. I did not see where the problem....
Sorry got the basic question but I'm trying to set up advanced launcher on my mac XBMC for the first time. I'm trying to set up Dolphin and when I'm prompted to select the application I can't select Dolphin.app as it goes into the file and give me other options - none of which seem to launch then application.
Could anyone offer advice?
Thanks.
Well, I installed Win 7 instead of Win 8 and now Advanced Launcher works.
I created a launcher for Chrome but when I launch it, the Chrome's windows is in background and not in foreground.
I have activate the "Use a fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen" option that is present into XBMC system settings as described in the User Guide
What can I do to correct that ?

Here is, maybe, now the "correct" way to start application from XBMC Frodo : http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1324197
Thank for your following Angelscry, it works perfectly
I'm on Frodo final win 7 x64 Aeon Nox and AL is marked as broken in the repository?

can't get it to enable or update? this started on Friday, has something changed?
I tried to uninstall Advancedc Launcher and then reinstall it from your repository (not using direct download or manual install
but it don't even give me the option to install from your repository.

That's the version on the official XBMC repo (1.7.6) which is broken, not the version on my proper repo (1.12.2).

Ok... try to unsintall Advanced Launcher, uninstall my repository, then... manually, reinstall the last version of my repository and finally install Advanced Launcher from my repo.
