Zsnes, xbmc and Keyboard command {alt+f4}

[leftspeaker2000]

Hello


I have xbmc on my HPTC with rom emulator collection and a MCE remote. The remote is set up great and works perfectly fine with event ghost. I do though want to add the keyboard short cut to a key to quit the emulator when im done and return back to xbmc. When in the emulator launched from XBMC if I press alt + f4 it closes the emulator and goes back to xbmc. If I set this up though event ghost, the command will close xbmc, other programs but it appears to do nothing to Zsnes although the even is running. I tried using the alternative input method that's available on the keyboard imput but nothing works any help would be great !.

I wasn't able to get EventGhost to close ZSNES directly, seems ZSNES is special. I found this tool Closemul, seems to be for closing emulators. I haven't tried it so don't know if it works with ZSNES. You should be able to run it from EventGhost.

If you install my patch here (or wait for the next version of EventGhost), you can use the following in a Python Command:

Code: Select all

eg.WinApi.Utils.KillProcess(processName = "zsnesw.exe")
