I have been using XBMC with Advanced Launcher in Windows 7 for over 1 year without any problem.
Today i have upgraded to Windows 8 and i have also installed XBMC Launcher.
Now, when i launch a game from XBMC then XBMC will exit fullscreen to launch the game, but a few seconds later it goes back to fullscreen and my game diseapear in the background
I'm not sure if this is due to Windows 8 or XBMC Launcher... Any idea how i could fix it ?
It would be even better if i could just make it exit and close XBMC after starting a game with Advanced Launcher. Is this possible ?
According to your description, I think that the problem is the application you want to start itself. Does this application use a launcher executable? If so, what happen, is that Advanced Launcher start the launcher executable. Then, the launcher executable start the main application. Once this main application is started, the launcher executable close by itself. When this started launcher executable is closed, XBMC automatically get the focus back... and your main application still running into background.
The first thing you can try is to start with Advanced Launcher the main executable instead of the launcher executable.
Thanks for the reply,
I am trying to launch .lnk files with Advanced Launcher. The .lnk files opens games like Borderlands 2, Starcraft 2, Diablo 3, Left4dead2, Dead Island, Anno 2070, etc. I have the same problem for all of them, but it was working with Win7 before.
I have now completly uninstalled XBMC Launcher to see if it was the source of the problem. But the same thing keeps happening : when i try to launch a game, XBMC exists full screen and becomes a square window, then the game try to launch but XBMC come back in full screen
Is there a way to make Advanced Launcher force exit on XBMC after launching a game ?
