[QUOTE="DreadFury, post: 583636, member: 96011"] A simple util that some posters requested, mainly for loading games. MePoLoad.exe was created to make running programs in Media Portal a bit more 'clean'. It creates a black screen to cover the screen while the program is launched, making for a better visusal experience. [B]Simply copy MePoLoad.exe to your programs executable directory and run it using the executable file to be run as a command line, followed by the amount of seconds to wait after the file is started to remove the black screen.[/B] Example: [B]MePoLoad.exe game.exe 5[/B] This would blank the screen, load game.exe, wait 5 seconds, then remove the black screen. Encase the file in quotes if it contains a space. Example [B]MePoLoad.exe "my program.exe" "2"[/B] This will run my program.exe and wait 2 seconds to remove the black screen. Using with MultiShorcutPlugin is simple! Place the MePoLoad.exe file into the 'ExeFile' field, and then the program file and seconds options in the 'Arguments' field. Example: [B]Exefile: C:\Program Directory\MePoLoad.exe Arguments: "C:\Program Directory\program.exe" "5"[/B] This will launch the program and wait 5 seconds before removing the black screen. Enjoy! -Dread [/QUOTE]
