Launching external programs like Games (1 Viewer)

[Barbagallo]

This is one of the other feature described in Media Portal features.

Is there anybody so kind to explain me the best way to put PC games on HD (installed but with iso on HD) and to launch them from inside MP?
If this is possible, as soon as the Game starts, can I control it with remote joypad already installed and configured (on my PC) with Xpadder?
When I close the game will I come back to MP last screen?

This because I wish to use the PC only as MediaPlayer, no desktop, no mouse no keyboard, no nothing ... just Media Portal in full sceen mode starting at windows start up.

Thak you to anyone will answer me.

If the topic is already discussed somewhere (I guess it should) sorry me and redirect me to the point.

This should be possible without to much trouble... in theory

Controlling the game without a keyboard or mouse is up to the game.
Once the game is launched from within MP, the game will take over all controls.

The challenge begins when you want to have multiple games playable from within MP.
You need to assign a driveletter to each iso and configure that driveletter in the corresponding game. I think this can be done with "Daemon Tools" but I never tried it. (someone correct me if I'm wrong)

I never tried any of this but it should work...
