When I scrape with it on I get invalid images and no info- when I scrape with it off I get info an no images...Afaik, there is no working archive.vg API right now. They are working on a new API release for several months now but I have no idea how they progress or if/when they will be ready to go.
djm1319 Wrote:What I would like to do is create a number of shortcuts for Steam that start xbmc on 'Movies' or 'Games' or even subdirectories or locations found in programs like Advanced Launcher.Something like this is planned for future releases but I can't promise any dates. At least there should be an option to launch certain rom collections from home screen.
An example of this: 'Playstation 1' or 'Nintendo Entertainment System' since those are both subdirectories in Advanced Launcher
Just an idea I came up with while finishing up my setup. All help is appreciated.
joebloggs12 Wrote:does rcb store this in another place as well as the nfo filesRCB stores everything in its database "MyGames.db". The nfo files can be used to reimport data without scraping online again.
joebloggs12 Wrote:can I update to the latest rcb without losing my setup from version 2.10From 2.0.10 to 2.0.13 you should be able to update without issues. Your config files and database should be kept intact. For future updates: it may happen that changes to your config or data files are required. RCB will perform these changes automatically between stable releases (releases that are available via official XBMC repo). But between test releases this is not guaranteed. To be on the safe side you should check the release posts here in this thread if you update to a test release in future.
Komerad Wrote:Still strugling with the audio now. When I exit rcb the audio is gone (not that i have any sound in retroarch, what worked on previous installs doesnt work anymore now.)This could be something between bug and misconfiguration. When you use solo mode you should disable "Suspend Audio" option in "Addon Settings/Launch Games". In a later release I have to make sure that RCB does not suspend audio when solo mode is enabled.
I have to go to system and select the audio again.

san7a Wrote:I'm having what seems to be a simple issue of changing the view from a vertical list to anything else...To use the confluence skin of RCB in a skin that ships its own RCB files (like Aeon MQ 3,4,5 oder Aeon Nox) you need to delete (or rename) all RCB specific skin files in your skins main directory.
I'm using Aeon MQ5 and the Confluence skin for the browser.
joebloggs12 Wrote:sweet got it sorted.. just incase anyone else makes the same mistake as I have for the last 2 days.. make sure your artwork filenames don't have leading or trailing spaces otherwise they may not match the rom name and wont show upSo all your issues are gone now or are you still struggling with the video files?

The core's I'm thinking about using are, snes9x next, nestopia, mednafen (PSX), and genesis.

joebloggs12 Wrote:there is one thing , can the size of the box art be changed so its larger on info 1 layout in confulanceNot per configuration. You can only change if it shows 4 small or 1 large image but not the size of a single image. You could only change this in the skin files directly.

You mean the file name?
But I'm already using "_Disk *" now, and before that I tried "_Disk*" and it yields the same result?

I just restarted the pc nearly 10 times just so I could import a handful of gba roms.
This is on Ubuntu 13.04, running Xbmc frodo.
Please tell me this is a known problem, and that there is a way to fix it : )
Also, aside from the above issue and some scraping problems, this is great. For months I couldn't get advanced launcher to do anything with my emulators, but RCB launched every game first time. Thanks for that.
