I do not think that this is possible with XBMC live but anyhow for starting an external App you could have a look at this thread: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=85724

have a look at this link: http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=XBMC_Online_Manual

XBMC live is quite easy to run. give it a try and test it on a machine and play around with it ... that helps a lot! and if you are at least a little bit investigative you should also be able to find out its possibilities and its no-gos!

my English might also be not the best but do not hesitate to ask questions ... I got always the best hints and tipps and tricks ... Nod

If you want help from 90% of the people on here. Spell things correctly. Broken grammar is better than bad spelling. I have no clue how people that have English as a second language pick up such horrible shorthand. You'd probably be better off using google translate.

List of words that are NOT English: alot, linnks, u, bcz, i m, seconed, pls.

MSN Messenger does not run on Linux.
Live Is Linux.
MSN Messenger does not run on Live.
Code:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `xbmc_%`.* TO 'xbmc'@'%';
IF you have a mysql problem, find one of the 4 dozen threads already open.

dont be mad on me i m just assume that people understand short words like :
alot = a lot (forget the space bar key not so hard to guess)
u = you
bcz= because
seconed = second (mistake in writing sorry about that from my deep heart)
pls- please

that better? in chat program all over the world people use this short words but you:mad: chooce to be angry.
i dont like your approach ,sorry.
and thanks to know that in xbmc live i cant run messenger and others programs that i want, anyway if i install xbmc live on my hard disk it will be possible or because i install it on my disk on key ? what kind of xbmc version i need to install and where ? its weird that you can get the live version and you can do mount to the hard disk and you cant use nothing from your programs that install on your windows 7 system , why is that and where i can find exactly what xbmc live version can do (games, program,etc..)
any advice how can i advance from here until i will be able to run games and programs?

anyway i look for help and thanks for the replay

If you want to start an application, in most of the cases, this one MUST be installed on the system you used. So is you want to start applications from XBMC live, those application must be installed first on XBMC Live (might be possible on USB key, but not on Live CD). Also you cannot directly start windows applications from Linux based systems (and XBMC Live is a linux based system).

If you want to start windows application that are installed on your hard drive, the only way you can do it is to install windows version of XBMC on your hard drive.

You can't run anything from your Windows 7 drive because Linux is not Windows.

Live is Linux.

I'm also agree with krijeck. If you plan to use XBMC to launch a large number of Windows applications : forget XBMC Live, forget Linux and install XBMC for Windows. It will be the more simple and the more accurate for what you expect to do.

You do not need to write launchers. You can use Advanced Launcher to start application without using any bash script launcher.

Bash script launchers are to improve your control on your system :
  • control how XBMC process will react (freeze, close, minimize, focus, etc..)
  • control how started applications process will react (freeze, close, minimize, maximize focus, etc..)
  • control everything else on your system not directly related to XBMC or started application (mount/unmout ISO, start controller configuration software, etc...)

Sample of those scripts can be found here : http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewforum.php?id=2
