Thanks for the quick fix Angelscry! Advanced Launcher has been an incredibly helpful add-on for pretty much everything that XBMC won't natively do.

Is there any way to launch (play) a playlist automatically?
For example, I have a Random Seinfeld playlist. I added it to favorites so that I could add it to Adv. Launcher, but all that does take me to the playlist. I was hoping there was a way to set it so that it would just start playing the first entry on the playlist instead of opening it up.
Thanks!

If there is a command into XBMC that allow you to start and play a playlist, it would be possible to launch this command internally or externally (by using script) using Advanced Launcher.

Hello,
I am getting a strange UI issue with my current setup, but I'm not sure if it is an XBMC, skin, or an AL issue.
Pretty much what happens is that I have created a favorite in advanced launcher for a category called Emulators. Then in my theme Aeon, I have the favorite set as a main menu item.
The issue is that when I click the shortcut Advanced Launcher will open in the tri-pane layout for a split second (with no content) then switch to the correct Category, in the correct layout. Obviously this is not the end of the world, but it sure looks like hell.
Is this due to the fact that I am using the favorite shortcut under the main menu?
If anyone else is doing this, do you see the same behavior and what theme are you using (that supports custom menu items)? I am willing to switch themes if that is the issue.

Hey Angelscry, I was wondering something. How hard would it be to add functionality to directly launch VBScript (.vbs) files via Advanced Launcher? You can already launch batch files in it, so I was just curious if it would be similar in concept.

Hi Angelscry.
Thanks for this great project.
I would like to know if is possible to add a filter where you only show 'games' with some genre or year.
