This is now possible.
If you know that much, you’ll have Boxee set up to launch your favorites in no time.
This dandy little Boxee App allows you to execute any external program from within Boxee.
To install this app, you’re going to need to add Fuzz The D’s repository to Boxee.
If you’ve never added a repository on Boxee, don’t worry: it’s painless.
Just bring up the App section of Boxee, then bring up the left-side menu.
At the bottom of this menu is a “Repositories” button; click this.
You’ll now see a new repository to your right, called “Boxee Repo.”
I also highly recommend hitting the “Add Shortcut” button for easy access.
pop kick open the Launcher App and scroll the the left-menu to bring up your options.
To get started, bang out the name of the program in the top field.
Finally, pick an icon for the program.
This feature makes finding relevant icons for your games a snap.
Launching ROMs
And now the part you’ve been looking for: using Boxee to launch ROMs.
How to this varies depending on your operating system, but it’s not that hard.
No problem: simply create a script that can launch the game using Mednafen.
There’s an obvious solution to this: don’t use the method to launch your games full-screen.
I’d be more than willing to pay for such integration.
For now, however, I’ve managed to turn Boxee into a ROM launcher perfect for my needs.
That’s not to say there isn’t room for improvement here.
What doyouuse Boxee for?
