New here, with some questions... (1 Viewer)

Like I said, I'm new here so... Hi MediaPortal Forums!! Anyways, my questions are pretty simple.

1) On the myEmulator Plugin, PC games run just fine, but when I want to play my PSX games, I have ePSXe and I see the rom names, so lets say I want to play Spyro 3, I click it and all that happens is the main ePSXe GUI comes up, I was expecting that the emulator would boot up with the iso already loaded, is there something I haven't done yet?

2) I have 2 movies on my PC, they were DVDs that I ripped and compressed myself with XviD avi, they play just fine and District 9 did what I expected, when I had it scanned with IMDB (I think that's it...), the cover art appeared and was saved, Halo Legends however, did not, all I got from Halo Legends was the info, can I put a specifically named image in my movies folder so it'll come up manually?

That's all I need, other than that, everything else with MP is just fantastic! Great software!

Hi there and welcome

Can't help with point 1. Never used it. Someone else please?

If you have multiple movies in same folder, you may manually put the cover picture there and name it the same as the movie, example, district9.avi and district9.jpg.
If you have a move per folder, you can just name the cover folder.jpg

For movies, you should actually check out the most popular movie plugin called moving pictures. It will manage your movie info, covers as well as backdrops.

I tried Moving Pictures, it didn't come up in the My Plugins menu... I'll get the Halo Legends cover then, I have an idea on how to fix the myEmulator problem... I'll update my post with what happened.

You can select in MP Configuration if a plugin should be in Home or Plugin menu.

Okay I figured out! I don't need Moving Pictures, I keep getting errors with it and I'm just fine with "My Videos" (Wrong skin maybe? I don't really care.)... For the emulator, here's what I did in case anyone wants to know. I remembered some arguments and tried a combination of them, this one worked, just change my BIOS location to your BIOS location. (that's optional but recommended, if you don't have BIOS, then just delete that argument, if you have BIOS, use that argument)
