is there a way for kodi to launch apps? - pixretro - 2023-09-06 Hey.. I'm running Nobara linux (a fedora variant) and I was wondering if there is a way to create a link or a batch file ( yes... like in old school dos... ) that would open an external program like lutris or just firefox and run it over the top? At the moment I need to close kodi and then start them... easy enough to do but I'm just lazy.. 😁 I tried the lutris add on that's floating about and it didn't work and I don't think it's maintained anymore.. just wondered if there was a way to open things without closing kodi.... Thanks! RE: is there a way for kodi to launch apps? - wastis - 2023-09-07 There are some ways to achieve this. ShellScriptLauncher  or edit keymap and add System.Exec which brings the launched application to the top. RE: is there a way for kodi to launch apps? - pixretro - 2023-09-07 thanks! I'll have a proper look at them in a bit! 😁😁
