Just a quickie... I'm trying to add SpaceFractal's command-line movie player to Mamewah for a simple music video player, but I can't seem to get it working. The program runs straight from the command line with no problems, however no matter what I put for the command line executable I can't get it to launch from Mamewah - it just goes says 'loading', then flickers and stays on Mamewah. I know this happens when the emulator executable line is wrong (I'm launching this like an emulator, not as an external app), and it is obviously generating the list of movies, but I just can't get it to launch. I should be an expert by now but this one is bugging me. Can anyone with Mamewah please try this and post their .ini file please? I'm using version 1.63. |

anyone? |

It looks OK to me...the only thing I would suggest is to use {dosbox}{safelaunch} but I'm sure you have tried that. I haven't used the movie player before but will give it a shot if you still have trouble... |
