I managed to fix the crashes on the QT version.
The reason I am still working on QT version is because it runs normally on windows XP.
The IE version instead requires a version of windows where you can install IE9+ (meaning vista or higher)
The QT version still requires vlc to be installed and it works on Linux too
I will upload the new version 3.1, soon

so this will now work on 32 bit linux?
I was going to try it on 64 bit tonight.

This is for windows users. The method I am using to fix the crashes it doesn't work well on Linux (until now it crashes all the time)
The 64bit version, on the other hand works just fine. Remember it's depending on qt libraries. In most cases they are preinstalled but you will need to install the qt4 freepascal binding
You don't need vlc because it's all html5.
Tested on 64bit linux mint 16

Pclinuxos 64bit lxde desktop. It works great.

wow, impressed on the movement on fresh FE development these days.
I wonder if this could serve as a simplified drop-in-replacement for hyperspin, with at least support for flv/mp4, keymappers and databases.
Hyperlaunch support should be possible already in some way...
Thanks for the initiative - i thought myself from a noob-point-of-view that html as technology should allow pretty much THIS.
kind regards
Alex

Hello Alex and thank you for the nice words
This forntEnd already supports databases in the form of xml files (I beleive hyperspin does the same). However, It's not a full support yet
It is also supporting categories but only in the form of ini files (and for now there is no gui to create the categories inside the ForntEnd. You need to create/edit the ini files)
Generally ini files load faster, because they are processed directly by the browser
PS. I already test the ForntEnd and my custom controller/interface and currently I am working on solving some bugs to the Bluetooth communication. I have already complete the android application, with wich you can control the FrontEnd and play games with your android smartphone/tablet
Edit: Here is a picture of the android app
