good to see you're not giving up
Quote:im having trouble with my config.xml file
I currently have only mednafen installed and im having trouble filling out the config.xml
its installed to /usr/games/mednafen
thats as far as I get I have no idea what to fill out.
I guess your emuCmd has to be something like this:
Code:
/usr/games/mednafen -fs 1 "%ROM%"
You can also pass a lot of more arguments to mednafen selecting screen resolution, sounddriver and more. Depends on your system what parameters to use.

Uhh, this won't look nice
. RCB is not designed for a non-image scenario.
Additionally, your current version (0.5.4 I guess) does not really support this minimal configuration. I did not test it myself but I think you may get errors when you try to import games without a valid mediaPath in your config.xml.
If you want to try it you can go with the newest version 0.6.1 that is available at my projects site:
http://romcollectionbrowser.googlecode.c...0.6.1c.zip. I did not fully test it until now but all basic functions are tested and work with Camelot and Dharma. It is not available in the Repo so you have to download it manually and install it via zip file (in Dharma).
With this new version you can do a minimal configuration (will not look better than in 0.5.x but is easier to configure):
Code:
<config>
<Consoles>
<Console>
<name>NES</name>
</Console>
</Consoles>
<RomCollections>
<RomCollection>
<name>NES</name>
<consoleName>NES</consoleName>
<emulatorCmd>/usr/games/mednafen -fs 1 "%ROM%"</emulatorCmd>
<romPath>/home/user/roms/*.zip</romPath>
</RomCollection>
</RomCollections>
</config>
Documentation for the new version is almost complete now. I tried to split up the configuration process. So if you have this minimal configuration up and running you can just follow the instructions to add images or game description (you still have to get them on your own).
