Hi Guys,
I am finally getting somewhere,
i have managed to get the mouse and keyboard to go through to Google chrome,
I am hoping to do a how to once i'm finished as i haven't found one yet.
My last problems are:
Problem 1: I have set up my MCE remote to work with XBMC, however when i go to Netflix in Google chrome, the remote controls don't go through only the mouse and keyboard. Does anyone know how to pass the remote control to Google Chrome?
Problem 2: I have no sound. I have sound in XBMC when using the remote, but as soon as i go to Netflix, i have no sound. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks,
$tocK

By default chrome will use the default audio device, which is probably not your XBMC output device. You may need to redefine your default device in /etc/asound.conf.
If I have helped you or increased your knowledge, click the 'thumbs up' button to give thanks :) (People with less than 20 posts won't see the "thumbs up" button.)

Hi there i almost got the netflixbmc addon working but in the other thread over the addon they told me to get an window manager caus netflix opens in a smaal window with no sound and xbmc is still showing on the background.
Is anybody willing to help me to get this solved?
Really desperate by now cause after 2 weekends trying to get it to work i am almost there.
Thanks in advance!!!!

Same story with that config. Everything is working great but no sound when opening a webpage through Chrome Launcher.

I also have the sam problem in chrome with the sam config running xbmcbuntu.
xbmc is no problem sound works with everything.
It looks like i can't select the hdmi output on my nuc.
Working without a problem on mint 17 with xbmc standalone.
Any advice is welcome.

It would be really helpful if someone did a How To on configuring the alsa sound issues. it looks like some people have done it and have it working.
Or even point us in the direction of a How To.
thanks,

In the steam launcher signature there is a link to setting up steam and xbmcbuntu and in that there is a section for setting up either pulse audio or alsa with dmix. Each has their pros and con's, but honestly the best method would be to quit XBMC before running chrome (which isn't possible within the XBMC session in xbmcbuntu, but the guide has some info on how to achieve this, albeit with steam but the general principal applies.)

I want to make a shortcut to a website using Chrome in Kiosk mode (without Chrome Launcher add-on). But I don´t know the correct parameter. Every try to add -kiosk mode the url opens in a new tab window without kiosk mode.
