mmm, I have not been able to use the previous link to install mame32 on the current version of MP; so.... I'm looking to completely retool the emulation Wiki. Any help would be appreciated.

1) Launch Configuration.exe
2) Launch the myPrograms-plugin-setup screen
3) Add a new "MAME DIRECT"-application: "Add Child" => "Extended" => "MAME Direct importer" -> a new detail screen appears
4) Set the "LAUNCHING APPLICATION" by clicking the browse button to the right. Select the location of your mame32.exe => myPrograms tries to set as many options and directories as possible.

* Set you game files directory
* Uncheck "Quotes around filenames"
* Remove the "-skip_disclaimer" tag, keep the other two.

5) Click the FILES tab
6) Click the "UPDATE DATABASE" button to launch the importer

baloubic - thanks for your response.

I followed your instructions then clicked on the "Launch" button for a game that works stand-alone (this on the same page as the "Update Database" button). Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this?

Hi again,

I'm not at home, so I can't check where/if my instructions were wrong... But try to remove all tags except -joy (joy should be there, but only one of the other two tags. Maybe I remembered wrong in my first post)

Also, uncheck "only import files with valid images", if you haven't already done so. Mame support does still work, as I use the same MP version with mame without problem, so don't lose hope ;)

When I set it up, I followed wabeards instructions from the initial release:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/showthread.php?t=2036&highlight=mame

...and it worked for me. There is some bugs covered later in that thread as well.

Good luck!

Thanks for your help

It was the arguements other than "-joy" that were messing me up! IT WORKS!!!

I'll put this in the Wiki soon.

Installing other software, especially MP1, which is partly sharing Tv service with MP2, can make everything worse. Please upload your debug log files, if you want to solve the issue.

You need to check the wiki for TVMosaic, you have recordings as source available once TVM is installed. And of course images and music are part of the NET6 version as for NET4. If you have issues with it further infos would be good.

Thanks. I found the settings on DVB EPG and on the WebEPG page I used GrabNow then Saved. It did take a long'ish time and all is OK. Thanks so much for reminding me where to find the sort function.
