RE: Advanced Emulator Launcher - Multi-emulator frontend for Kodi - blinken - 2017-03-10
I've done some searching but have been able to find information on cemu rpx files. When I launch an RPX a cemu window opens but no game loads. Is there some trick to getting this to work? Also, is there someway to get cemu to launch the roms in fullscreen? Thanks for any help.

Gave it a try. Same thing, cemu window opens but doesn't load rom. No error message or anything. The emulator just opens.

Hope you can add soon support for Nintendo Gameboy Advanced and for the Sony PlayStation portable.
It would be nice if you add a option to update all information at once from a scraper, after for you already add a game like a pc game. Like in the advanced launcher (update information,preview and fan art)
But so far a geate program add on

Have you got spaces in the file or directory names? If so remove them and try again

Does this application not support Retroarch? Why? Do I need to create a .bat for each game?

Retroarch should work as long as you get the correct command lines. Saying that though it doesn't appear to work for me recently.
However as a work around instead of making a bat file for each game just make one to launch retroarch and pass the rom file into it. The command is on this thread somewhere

@gutocardz In 0.9.6-beta1 release notes post you have instructions to configure Retroarch for almost every core supported. Have a look and if you have more trouble and need help please ask more specific questions and also give information about your setup (what platform/operating system, Kodi version, etc.).

You mean the AEL Offline scraper database? If so I want to finish it ASAP... but ASAP could mean several months. Contributions are welcomed!

That's not possible because not all the artwork scrapers support all type of assets. In Advanced Launcher all scrapers supported Icon/Fanart, so there was no problem. In any case, AEL users are encouraged to download artwork collections from the links on the first post

On windows there does seem to be a problem launching directly into retroarch and a bat file is needed in between
EDIT- Scrap that the problem is when launching from AEL you need to put the core path in quotes as well or it doesn't open.
So your command needs to be -L "path to core" -v -f "$rom$"
RE: Advanced Emulator Launcher - Multi-emulator frontend for Kodi - harpua1982 - 2017-03-11
I am having trouble opening up AEL (version: 0.9.6) on my Nvidia Shield TV.
It installs, but doesn't open. Tested same version on my Windows PC and it worked perfectly.
Log
It might also be worth noting, that I'm trying to install this AddOn on a cloned version of Kodi, using the app, App Cloner.
So, you'll see:
storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodj/files/....
instead of:
storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/...
but, I'm running into the same issue when trying to run the AddOn from my original copy of Kodi as well. Plus, other Addons have no issue when trying to run from the cloned version of Kodi.
Apologies, if this was already explained, but a quick search yielded a user w/ what seemed to be the same issue, but never uploaded/updated an appropriate log.
I was a user of the original AL some years ago, and I'm excited to try AEL on my new ShieldTV.

Thanks @foleyjo for the help. Please include an AEL XML configuration, that should make everybody's life much easier and then I can include that in the AEL asset library. Remember that I do not have a Windows machine for testing...

The problem is that for some reason Kodi Jarvis for Android doesn't ship with Python 2.7 and AEL requires Python 2.7. An user in the thread worked out a workaround. Please try Krypton, that should work.
