I'm trying to get it to work with advmame. The reasoning is that mame with gl is too slow and xmame on seems to have only oss sound support.
The problem is that advmame expects only the name of the game without a zip extension or a path..
advmame asteroids ==>> good
advmame /home/foobar/asteroids.zip ==>> bad
Any ideas...

thanks
Thanks..

Did some trial and error and made a script (for linux)
I have RCB pointing to this script as the advancemame executable.
OUTPUT=`basename $1 .zip` #strip zip extension
pidof xbmc.bin | xargs kill -STOP #running advmame and xbmc too slow so we pause xbmc
advmame $OUTPUT
pidof xbmc.bin | xargs kill -CONT # unpause xbmc
works for me, yours might die a horrible death..
Cheers,
