To solve this you will have to add them as sources into XBMC. To do this, you need to access XBMC files manager (using Filemanager option). Select the Add source option and select your network or local drives to add. Then you will be able to see and access them from Advanced Launcher.

sorry butchabay it might seem abit harsh but thats just how it is wasnt an insult against you just stating my feedback on cirrus 2 , sorry if it rubs you the wrong way bro
no need to get all ban hammer on me xD, stay fresh
p.s: butchabay if youd overhaul the interface to look nicer and work together better , increasing the performance etc maybe i wouldnt be so harsh about the feedback , just a thought xD
btw dont take it to seriously was just giving my 2 cents on the current cirrus
ok ,peace

I searched for this issue but didnt find an answer:
Is it possible to start firefox 6 or chrome in fullscreen mode via advanced launcher?
I tried to install a firefox plugin callen FF Fullscreen 5, it works fine but only every second time you start firefox. First usw, firefox in fullscreen, second time, firefox not in fullscreen :/
Isnt there any parameter to start one of this browsers in fullscreen?
Thank you alot

sl4m Wrote:I searched for this issue but didnt find an answer:I think that Firefox do not have fullscreen command line support natively. You need to pass by plugins, but those one are not all the time updated or working well. For chrome, if it works like chromium, you can use the kiosk mode option :

Hey folks,
I assume I'm gonna get beasted here, but I have read the wiki, and I have read though a lot of this thread (but not all of it) and I am struggling to get this going?
Here's what I have done:
Here is my current file structure:
E:\Emu\Zsnes\Roms (same for snes9x)
I have entered AL and selected option 2 (emu) I then pointed it to the znes EXE, rom folder, art folder etc.
I advised it that it was a super nintendo emu.
My arguments were exactly what was written in the wiki (they defaulted to these anyway) I tried -fullscreen and without -fullscreen.
Both emus work fine out side of xbmc.
When I go to select the emu it just displayed "working" and then nothing happens. EXE location is correct, rom location is correct, fanart location is correct, checked and double checked the arguments and they are carbon copy's of whats on the wiki.
The emus work Fine out side the xbmc environment, I have tried zsnes, snes9x and Mame and kawaks but they all seem to fail and produce no error etc.
"Working" appears then disappears almost immdeietly?
I'm on windows,
Dharma 10.1,
Using skin CEV2 (2.0.5)
Am I forgettig something or have I totally got the wrong idea here?
Cheers,
And appologies in advance if I've made a total fanny of my self by getting it way wrong.
I can't post a log etc as I'm on an iPad
but as I mentioned there is no script error or anything being reported?I assume it's so ething simple I've missed (as everyone else is using it fine) so any help pointers or advice in getting zsnes or snes9x up and running is appreciated so that I can then go on setting the rest up.

The same has happen to me before. When I was trying to select my application for the emulator, the only place I could search was on my dvd-drive. (On Dharma and Pre-Eden)
Solution : If you are running AnyDVDHD or a program similar to it, and if you have a disc in the tray it will create this bug. So the solution is to exit the program when creating a launcher application. That worked for me.
The fault seems to be towards AnydvdHD.
BTW Keep up the great work on the Advance Launcher Angelscry!!

(On Dharma and Pre-Eden)If you want to be able to select files for any program add-ons (like Advanced Launcher) you need first to define a directory source. That's exactly the same thing when you want to add video, audio, picture or movie files into XBMC. You need first to define a source. Now, advanced Launcher use the default XBMC built-in function xbmcgui.Dialog().browse(...) to select files. If you think that this function is not working correctly for program add-ons, ask XBMC developers to fix it.

how do i add the seperator between file extensions
if i click the seperator on the onscreen keyboard in xbmc it doesnt react in a matter of fact no keys on the onscreen keyboard work
?p.s: angelscry how bout adding moddb as scrapper for games
they got a very large database including game mods etc
watcha say?

hentai23 Wrote:how do i add the seperator between file extensionsNormally, you just need to click on the "Symbol" key of the virtual keyboard (for Confluence skin), then just have to click on the "|" key. If all the keys are not working.... heuuu... it could be related to a skin bug. Do you have this problem when using the default Confluence skin?

hentai23 Wrote:p.s: angelscry how bout adding moddb as scrapper for gamesI did not know this website before. Yes, they seems to have a large number of games, but, metadata for each game is really poor (small game description, low resolution covers). Also, if you have a multi-platform game, the website did not make differences between these platform.
they got a very large database including game mods etc
watcha say?
But the most annoying problem, for a scrapper development, is that the website do not have it's proper search engine. It use Google search engine, and so there is no possibility to make filtered search on the website. Research of a title return all the links of the website pages containing this game title (under a Google formated page)... and not only the game review page.
