RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - jaydash - 2015-01-15 @Angelscry I'd also like to THANK you (again!) for your time and effort with this add on. It is literally the most important add on on my Kodi box -my family and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts. It's coders like you who make this community special. Hopefully the community can continue some sort of AL support -I know if it ever breaks I'll personally have to find another option beside Kodi! RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - aoaaron - 2015-01-15 How do you download this app? Does it work like rom collection browser RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - aoaaron - 2015-01-15 Advanced launcher opens the games but it doesn't return to XBMC. I want advanced launcher to close XBMC, Open dolphin then when I close dolphin, open XBMC at where I was like RCB. Is this possible?

All the replies to your questions are in it. (2015-01-15, 22:22)aoaaron Wrote: Advanced launcher opens the games but it doesn't return to XBMC.You will have to write/use a script (sh, bat, vb, etc...) to do this. RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - bakito - 2015-01-16 you can use an autoit script to do that although it is not necessary with dolphin here is an exemple of such a script ( here it is for pcsx) HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate") If $CmdLine[0] == 1 Then ProcessClose ( "XBMC.exe" ) Run ( '"j:\emulations\PS2\emulateur\PCSX2 1.0.0\pcsx2.exe" --nogui --fullscreen "' & $CmdLine[1] & '"', "j:\emulations\PS2\emulateur\PCSX2 1.0.0\" ) While 1 Sleep(100) WEnd EndIf Func Terminate() ProcessClose ( "pcsx2.exe" ) Run ( '"e:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\XBMC.exe"' ) WinWait ( "XBMC" ) WinActivate ( "XBMC" ) Exit 0 EndFunc of course you have to point to dolphin and not pcsx2.exe and you have to add "/b /e" without quote as argument for dolphin.exe ( to remplace " --nogui --fullscreen" of the above script) and point to the correct xbmc.exe in your system... Again such a script is not needed for doplhin unless you want to have dolhin to run alone for more usable power... you can find autoit there:https://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/ (note that tis script also make "esc" the exit button but again in dolphin it is not necessary) RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - naval85 - 2015-01-17 which skin is this........skin used in above snaps RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - DaveyK - 2015-01-18 (2014-12-31, 16:43)Angelscry Wrote:(2014-12-31, 12:08)DaveyK Wrote:Which emulator are you using?

RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - irish66 - 2015-01-19 Hi. Windows user here. A while back when Xmbc was called Xmbc I set up AL to launch Pale Moon, the browser I use. At the time as far I remember it didn't work. Actually I had forgotten until I looked at AL tonight/morning, and saw pale moon listed. So I decided to give it a go, and it worked fine. Although for some reason when i go to run Pale moon, it asks me if i want to save the exe file. The thing is, now I've forgotten how to use AL to run a program. If I right click pale moon in my AL menu, i see one of the options is "create new launcher" Then I get "standalone Launcher, files launcher etc etc. So I choose "Standalone Launcher" which brings up "xfinity installer" flash drive, fusion, and xmbc. Okay, i have a feeling that fusion is the one i choose. But anyway, if i do choose fusion, there is nothing there. ie no folders or files to go into to find an exe file to run. If I choose "add sources" that seems to be to be to do with running a media file, and not an exe file. So any help would be appreciated. RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - spyder - 2015-01-19 @irish66 - Try adding your 'program files' folder(or C drive) to your file manager sources. RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - J7AYU - 2015-01-19 Could anybody help me write a script? What i would like it to do is auto extract a 7z archive to Temp\Temp_PSX then when emulation is ended delete the extracted files if that makes sense? RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - irish66 - 2015-01-19 SPYDER. Thank you very much. That worked fine. It seems so obvious now of course. RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - johnodon - 2015-01-19 Having a bit of an issue and hoping someone can help me. I am running XBMCBuntu Gotham (updated to 13.2). Since my need to is launch an app (EmulationStation) outside of XBMC, I am doing so by setting Openbox as the default desktop and launching XBMC from there so that I have an actual window manager running. Most of that work was taken from here: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=157499&pid=1706466#pid1706466 I am using AL to launch EmulationStation via a bash script. Here are the contents... Code: #!/bin/bash Doesn't get much simpler. Problem is that upon exiting EmulationStation and returning to XBMC, I am greeted with the "Remote Communication Server Failed to start" message. Here is the error taht is captured in the logs: Code: 11:22:58 T:139663473002432 NOTICE: Running the application... In my research I found that I can see which ports are currently in a listening state with the following command: Code: sudo lsof -i -P | grep -i "listen" This produces.... Code: xbmc@HTPCT420:~$ sudo lsof -i -P | grep -i "listen" If I am reading this right, does this mean that my shell script (named es.sh) itself is the culprit and listening on a port that XBMC wants to use (JSON)? If so, is there something I can add to the script to close itself before XBMC launches? FYI...if I disable Settings --> Services --> Remote Control --> Allow programs on other systems to control XBMC, the error does not present itself. TIA! John RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - some Chump - 2015-01-20 Is it possible to sort games by a "Sort title", the same as you can do with movies? RE: [UNSUPPORTED] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - bakito - 2015-01-20 Yes you can!
