[QUOTE="wolfman3105, post: 305725, member: 59278"] [b]Steam Games[/b] I´ve set up this plugin for some emulators and pc games, and it is working really fine. But i have some problems with Steam based Games. I use my game pad (Logitech cordless rumblepad 2) also for controlling mediaportal itself via "direct input remote". So i need the function "wait for exit", because otherwise mediaportal is being controlled in background while playing a game with my controller. Now i have the problem, that "wait for exit" doesn't seem to work for Steam-Games. I've set up the game as an aplication launcher to its Executable (eg. c:\programme\steam\common\steamapps\grid\grid.exe). The game is launched correct, but in background mediaportal stays active. I'am also unable to exit the game with the close- or kill-combo Actions defined in Direct Input Plugin. In Taskmanager the the process (grid.exe) is runnig. Also tried this with other steam games (shadowgrounds, trackmania) with the same result. Non Steam Games or my emulators are working flawless. I've read about some problems with the gameoverlayui.exe from steam, so i disabled the ingame steam community, but this also didn't change anything. So, does anybody know a workaround for this games to use the "wait for exit" function? Would be really glad about any help thanks [/QUOTE]
