No, this is just an info text. Did it already launch the rom or does it just display the text?
If 1) This was a bug in a previous release. The info text did not vanish after returning to RCB. This should be fixed with the current version (0.8.7).
If 2) There was an error with launching the rom. Check the xbmc.log again why it did not manage to launch the emu.

So it seems to behave the same when you launch it via command line and via RCB?
Good for me, its no RCB bug, bad for you, I can't help you.
Sorry, my MAME knowledge is not deep enough to go any further. Maybe someone else has an idea. Does MAME have a log file?

Hi. I was hoping someone could help me out. I am 100% noob when it comes to emulating on Apple TV. I just purchased an Apple TV 2 (2nd gen) and have flashed and also installed the mame frontend through the xbmc interface. Honestly, I have no clue how to run this, or what I need to do. I have mame on my windows (vista) laptop, but am not familiar with how to install/setup/run it on the apple tv 2. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you - AR

Videos are not available via online scrapers, so you have to get them on your own and import them manually into RCB.
ressurectionxtras comes with in-game videos, another good source is emumovies (but it requires payed subscription to get video download). emumovies also provides a download utility that will do the complete download and renaming stuff for you, the same as RCBs online scrapers do with artwork.
If you just want to play around with some video files, you can download the local testdata pack from RCBs project site. But it is a bit out of date and only contains 3 video files.
Videos will be played automatically if you choose one of the "...Video"-ImagePlacing options. There will also be a button "Play video fullscreen" if a video file is available (but unfortunately this does not work with Dharma - with Eden this seems to work again).

I am enjoying RCB but I am also having numerous problems with this program.
1. Many times I am unable to exit RCB and am forced to Alt F4 Xmbc. When I attempt to restart XMCB I must first manually end the process.
2. When I open the detailed info window The info does not show up so I must press x to get some to appear. Other times it is difficult to close this info window.
3. No matter how many scrapers I try I can not seem to be able to scrape rating, players,perspective etc.
4. Many times when i click on the settings button it does nothing.
Just wondering if anyone has any answers, thanks!
