New Launcher setup
Launcher: c:\program files\Dolphin\Dolphin.exe
Rom Path: \\server\games\wii
Rom Extension: ciso
Rom Arguments: -b -e $rom$"

When I launch a rom I get the following error from Dolphin when it launches: The specified file "\server\Games\Wii\Gametitle.ciso" does not exist
Obviously the path is incorrectly formed for a network path. However the kodi log shows the final argument as:

Artwork could be on a network share or remote but ROMs must be on a locally mounted filesystem. Reason is that emulators do not support remote files! That will change for Kodi Retroplayer but for now ROMs must be on a local filesystem (note that you can mount your smb share to make it available locally)

I have no problems manually launching roms for Dolphin, or Retroarch using UNC paths. I can launch them from the emulators or from command line. Launchbox doesn't seem to have an issue with it either but I would much prefer to use Kodi.
