i have the exact same problem as laukarlueng.

the launcher asks to scan for roms, but when i click ok xbmc seems to crash and end up at the login terminal.

I decided to start everything again and followed the instructions of this thread and the others but i end up with the same problem.

my launchers.xml looks like this:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<launchers>
        <launcher>
                <name>Super Nintendo</name>
                <application>/usr/bin/zsnes</application>
                <args>-m -s -v 15 </args>
                <rompath>/home/xbmc/roms/snes/</rompath>
                <romext>smc</romext>
                <thumb>/home/xbmc/roms/snes/thumb.jpg</thumb>
                <wait>true</wait>
                <roms></roms>
       </launcher>
</launchers>

changing the arguments do nothing as it never seems to load the application.
the folder paths are correct and tripple checked for case sensitivity. The roms do not have spaces in them. Manually adding the roms in the <roms></roms> tags does nothing to help either.

I checked the permissions of the launchers.xml in putty and corrected them using:

Code:

sudo chown xbmc:xbmc luanchers.xml
&
sudo chmod 666 launchers.xml

~both worked but do not change the outcome of my problem.

I just don't see what's wrong really.

for reference, I am using:
the patched launcher,
the "Acer Aspire Revo model: R3610".
using HDMI out to a bose media hub.

any help on this would be most appreciative.
