How-To embedding in CENTRAFUSE 1.3

**anky1** · 07-18-2005, 11:32 PM

In this short HOW-TO we will embed a program Directly into CF

First we will need 2 things.
-Full path of the .exe to open
-The window name when you open this program

Once you get these 2 items open up your “external.xml” file
(C:\Program Files\Flux Media\CENTRAFUSE\System\External.xml by default)
Choose a button to place this application into (for this how-to we will just use APP1)

It should look like this

Code:

<APP1>
		<PATH></PATH>
		<WINDOWNAME></WINDOWNAME>
		<DISPLAYNAME>App 1</DISPLAYNAME>
		<PAUSEMUSIC>False</PAUSEMUSIC>
		<LINECONTROL>NONE</LINECONTROL>
		<STARTFULLSCREEN>False</STARTFULLSCREEN>
	</APP1>

Add in your previously compiled data. Also at this point you can rename the button, don’t choose anything to long though or it will not show up correctly. Other options at this point would be to let this application control another LINE, start full screen, or pause Music.

Code:

<APP1>
		<PATH>C:\program files\GPS\GPS.exe</PATH>
		<WINDOWNAME>GPS</WINDOWNAME>
		<DISPLAYNAME>App 1</DISPLAYNAME>
		<PAUSEMUSIC>GPS</PAUSEMUSIC>
		<LINECONTROL>NONE</LINECONTROL>
		<STARTFULLSCREEN>False</STARTFULLSCREEN>
	</APP1>

Save and close.
Reopen CENTRAFUSE and enjoy

I get this when trying to embed ZSNES
This is a tricky one

Any ideas?
MediaCars embedding had no problem doing ZSNES or Netstumbler

ZSNES runs in a full-screen mode which might cause problems. SNES9X might work better.

dscaler does the same

hopefully tonight i'll get to post the adv. version. if you want a headstart... download http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/ and an editor http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/scite/downloads.php

I will show you how to use this app to get around special situations like variable windownames (timestamp of netstumbler).

Cool, snes9x works just fine

The embedding is rather..."loose" though

The embed window doesnt stretch to its max, you can still see the window behind
