I'm stumped on this one.
I have a zotac mag hd nvidia ion system with a minimal 9.10 + xci script installed. I'm trying to add the ability to launch Boxee from within XBMC. (I like each for its own purpose).
My idea was, on bootup, the system goes into XBMC as normal (xbmc-live upstart script launches /usr/bin/runXBMC). On the Home screen of XBMC (Confluence skin), I have the "Boxee" option added to \720p\Home.xml :
This executes the start-boxee.sh script i have:
The "/usr/bin/runBoxee" script is a modified version of the "/usr/bin/runXBMC" script that launches Boxee with "/opt/boxee/Boxee --standalone" instead of XBMC.
The problem is, all this does is when I select "Boxee" from the menu, it forces XBMC into "Windowed" mode (to which I have to go back into settings and put it back to full screen), and that's it, it does nothing else.
Is there some other, simple way of doing this? I have been working on this for so long trying to figure out how I can get Boxee, XBMC, Hulu Desktop and Firefox all running on the same system in harmony.
