Title: XBMC as a front end??
Post by: reptileink on August 26, 2010, 03:58:38 pm

Is it possible to use this as a front end? Sure it won't be snazzy like some, but my poor brain hurts from trying to figure out Hyperspin...I just want to play dammit  :banghead:

I use XBMC for my Home Media System, but I cannot figure out how you would run a MAME ROM through it.

Well, I actually used it on my Xbox to get into the emulator, and it loads right up from it, so I figured why not windows? I just don't remember what happens when I want to back out to another emu.

I don't know if you have been on the XBMC forums, but they have a plugin for this. I don't know how good it works, but its worth checking out.
