Hi mate,
Many thanks for all the tips, I'm struggling with something at the moment and Google isn't helping. I've got emulators running from Advanced Launcher, namely Spectaculator and ZX Spin (for ZX Spectrum), and ePSXe for PS1 games. They launch fine and XBMC doesn't retain the focus (XBMCLauncher is the shell, Windows 8.1).
However, more often than not I get dialog boxes for ZX Spin and ePSXe on start up saying that sound isn't available (DirectSound is mentioned for ZX Spin), but this behaviour isn't consistent. Spectaculator loads up in full screen mode but the top menu bar is visible and I have to click on the screen to make it go away before I can do anything. None of these issues happen outside XBMC.
Any ideas? Should DirectSound be available when Explorer isn't the shell? Many thanks in advance, apologies if these questions are idiotic.
