This is a fantastic app, by the way. One issue I am having is that in various instances when my pc wakes, xbmc does not start automatically. I am setting it to sleep within the power management settings in W7. Is there another method to sleep that gets around this issue. I've been using the app a few weeks and have come across this issue a handful of times. When it does not start automatically, the computer resets.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I think XBMC process is not completely closed before your system sleeps. This can happen if your system sleeps very fast. When you resume from sleep, xbmc will close. During this time xbmclauncher may think that xbmc is already running and it will skip restarting xbmc. This is a wild guess only, the actual problem may be something else. You can try adding a delay to start XBMC. I am thinking of changing the code so that xbmclauncher will prevent sleep until xbmc is completely closed. Also instead of force close, a normal close is possible in this approach.

You should enable the option 'Start First/Second group applications with XBMCLauncher'

Thanks heaps baijuxavior ...

One more thing, did anyone ever resolve the issue of imon failing after wake up from sleep ... my imon lcd screen is blank and my remote control doesn't work. Atm I've got sleep disabled.

You can try to kill iMon Manager during sleep and start it when resuming from sleep. For this edit the source code. Refer the code at line number 314 which deals with closing and starting xbmc.

Since I redid my system and changed to an SSD, Movies & TV-Shows menu is missing from the main menu when I use XBMC as shell.
Exit XBMC, restart and they are there.
Known issue? Can't find anything about this

Please check if portable mode is enabled in xbmclauncher. If so disable it.

I'm running Frodo on Windows Vista and i've got an odd issue.

I've set XBMC to start at wake up and basically it doesn't. The PC is connected via DVI>HDMI to the TV and if you turn the TV on after the PC has woken you see the desktop. The hard disk is thrashing like crazy and no XBMC.

If you wiggle the mouse XBMC starts immediately. I've tried changing the start XBMC delay from 1 second through to 10 seconds and no change. It's very perplexing.

It's like something is blocking XBMC, or perhaps it's waiting for the TV to turn on? But it doesn't start when the TV is turned on. Wiggling the mouse seems to do the trick.

Anyone got any clues at all?

Thanks

This is a weird problem. Unfortunately no solution comes to my mind.
