Okay here's how it goes When I launch it from xbmc 1)picodrive starts and works 2)when I exit picodrive nothing happens... 3)if I change the .sh to launch another program instead of xbmc it will launch it When I launch it from a file manager with no arguments 1)xbmc will start because like you...

Weird... just running the script from a file manager (with the change above) launched xbmc... but when I exit an app xbmc still will not start :( Edit: have not tried killall Edit: just tried it and it did not work either... why is xbmc being such a pain :rolleyes: So just for reference...

It launched the app fine but didn't seem to launch xbmc... is there any way we can clear the framebuffer inbetween? Like just color the screen black after "pnd_run $1"? Edit: Makes me wonder if xbmc has truly quitted... Is there a way we can just kill xbmc in this shell script? i bet that...

ideally someday I'd like xbmc to be able to launch PNDs natively... But someone would have to mess around with the sourcecode to get it to do that... Edit: thought you guys might like to see this...

It's just the only way I know how to get pnd_run in the beginning... So yeah to run xbmc you have to type in a terminal or something pnd_run <path to xbmc>xbmc.pnd the same thing for any other pnd. So the message that the python plugin script is sending to the OS is this pnd_run...

args = the arguments you specify (in my case I type "pnd_run " application = yields the pathname of the file you specificy

I'm not too good with shell scripts and passing arguments along with them... But if you tell me what to put in the file I can do it!

Here's something fun to watch

YES! I added a 2 second delay and sound works now! Just before the app launches in the script I added this import time time.sleep(2)

Okay... and when I restart before actually quitting the pnd app "after application launch" is never inserted into the log file Woopee!

How would I go about adding a delay?

Regardless it does work... Now as to the print statements this is what I got at the end of the log file before minimize after minimize EGL minimizing after application launch Of course that isn't a direct quote but it appears the script runs through everything just fine. I'm going to try...

OK will do right now ASAP... And yeah I can't really do anything with a windows manager. I'm using matchbox + minimenu as the default gui right now (because I can use the pnd button to quit xbmc if it hangs)

No wait this is the current state. I can launch a pnd I can even minimize xbmc so that you can see the program just fine and use it just fine, but sound doesn't work. When I try quitting the program (picodrive in my case) nothing happens. Thus I'm trying to figure out how to maximize xbmc...

I'm going to try it this way now... elif (sys.platform.startswith('linux')): #this minimizes xbmc some apps seems to need it #xbmc.executehttpapi("Action(199)") xbmc.executebuiltin("XBMC.Minimize") os.system("%s...

quotes don't seem to make a difference :(

I don't think so. I have matchbox set for minimenu and I still have the problem. Also you can disable the weather section in the settings

Works fine for me...

I've never been a mame guy so I'm kinda out of my league... but I will give the others a try. What is a romset? Is it just a list of what works? where can I get it? Just tried the other one and it just says OOPS :P What are some recommended games for MAME? Nevermind it worked in the other...

I agree sebt3 But you can't stop me :P I'm just going to see if I can add it as a gui that I can change too. BUT NOT THE DEFAULT GUI That would make life fun.... Is that what you were thinking? Or is there another reason why I shouldn't do it? Edit: Okay I found it and this is what I put...
