That showed the different disk numbers in the disk selection and launched the emulator with the proper disk.
"\(Disk*.\)" worked for me also when naming disks (Disk#).iso

Of course, you are right. Good that you sorted it out.

Yes, I am sure that it must be possible. But atm every user is reporting the same: XBMC is minimized to the upper left corner and then maximized again without launching the emulator. The emulators (retroarch for example) are working fine outside of XBMC/RCB.

Maybe there is something that I can do in RCBs code to make it work (that would be the easiest way), maybe something in XBMCs/Openelecs or the emulators config needs to be changed or (and that could be the worst case) something has to be changed in Openelecs code base.

My current time plan is to get current RCB release (2.0.6 or a bugfixed 2.0.7) in the official repo as soon as possible and then have a look at Android and RPi support. But as said above, it might happen that I am not able to solve this issue myself and have to ask others to have a look into this issue.

I'm new to RCB. I have 2 rom collections, NES and SNES. I was able to add my NES ROMs as a collection without issue. However, when I try adding my SNES collection, when it asks to browse to the emulator executable, the only path option available is my videos folder.

I thought I might try uninstalling and re-installing the add-on. I removed my NES collection, uninstalled the RCB add-on and then re-installed it. However, now I can't add any collections. I get stuck in the same way as described above, the screen to browse to the emulator executable only includes the videos folder as an option. So I have Rom Collection Browser, but it is unable to browse my collection of roms!

I've tried searching through the forum, but I can't seem to come up with meaningful enough search criteria to find anything relevant. There are a lot of posts here!

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Are there any logs I can provide? Any suggestions of things I can try?

Somebody at stmlabs forum seems to have found a solution. I did not yet try this myself but maybe it helps: link. Please report back if somebody is trying this out.

If that's not possible for whatever reason. Sorry I'm no python coder, just seemed like it could work from android side, and avoid you having to figure out a bunch of issues like it seems to have in pi and others. But hey if we didn't love your add on we wouldn't care!

Quote:It might work but even if, it could just be an intermediate solution. Playmedia (or any other derivates of play) is already used to launch games with XBMCs internal emulators in garbears RetroPlayer branch. I guess this might lead to confusion once this feature is integrated in XBMC.

But there must be a way to get this working as XBMC is already launching apps on Android. Would also be nice to have your Android games listed in RCB and be able to launch them. I hope that I will find the time to look at this soon.
