Title: Question about Jukebox launch off Mala menu
Post by: markronz on December 14, 2010, 10:49:41 pm
Ok, so I did some searching, but this question hasn't been asked before that I can tell.

But I am using SilverJuke on my arcade cabinet, along with mala.   On my main menu, I have All the Systems, listed; MAME, NES, SNES, Jukebox.  When you select an item, it brings it to the next "game list" screen, like you would expect.   The only thing is, for Jukebox, I don't really need a "gamelist" screen.   Is there a way for my main menu to bring me to the game lists for the emulators, and then if I pick Jukebox, it launchs my jukebox program directly from there.  Meaning there is no "gamelist" for the Jukebox.

Now, I have it set up to use a batch file, and that's all well and good.  But currently this is how it works, I have to choose Jukebox from the main menu, and then my Jukebox batch file from the "game list".  I am just trying to eliminate this extra step so that the batch file would be launched from the main menu.  Hopefully that makes sense.   It's not a huge deal to have this extra gamelist step, but it just seems unnecessary and I thought I'd check to see if there was a way to get rid of it.

Let me know if anyone has any ideas!  Thanks!
