so after moving to a new state and getting everything set up I decided I wanted to try my luck at getting RCB dialed in.
I have my roms stored on my server smb://TOWER/Games/Consoles/SNES/Roms/allromshere.zip
when setting it up via the quick setup wizard I do not have an option to select my SMB share only "home" and "root"
do I need to manually configure my config file?

Is it possible to get this working with the latest nightlies? I keep getting 'dependencies not met' errors on install.

I am planning to inject kind of a dashboard some day: displaying all consoles with short description and some statistics (number of games, favorite games, last played, etc.). But the main idea with having the filter controls on the game browsing screen wil remain. For me it is important to have the option to filter my games by more than console.
And I have a lot more issues on my list with a higher prio. I guess this dashboard has to wait some more releases.
If this is the way you want to browse your roms you should take a look at Advanced Launcher. It already works this way: Zap through your consoles and then show all games belonging to this console.

Just wanted a quick indication that I'm not wasting my time here. Installed the plugin on XBMC Live running off a hard disk. Set it up with a mame rom in a directory and downloaded the repository for sdlmameforubuntu for Maverick Meerkat, seemed to install ok, no errors anyway. When I run RCL it freezes about 25% of importing the rom. I'm using the Transparency skin if that's an issue.
Can this be done on xbmlive?
Thanks

Yes, it should work with XBMCLive. Only the solo mode won't work if you don't have an additional window manager installed.
What does the log say when it stops the import?

Looks like a configuration error. You need to specify a rom file mask (like *.zip) in the Edit Rom Collection dialog.

Thanks, done *.zip and its working now, loads the rom. Down in the bottom left of the screen there is a "launch..." text. Is there a way to select this with the remote control?
