I have had little luck with MythGame outside of zsnes and xmame; instead, I
made an entry in mainmenu.xml:
<button>
<type>GAME</type>
<text>Stepmania</text>
<action>EXEC /home/mythtv/StepMania-3.9/stepmania</action>
</button>
Actually, I was able to get StepMania running from MythGame just now by
doing the following:
Under Game Player Setup:
Player Name: PC GAMES
Type: OTHER
Rom path: /usr/games/scripts
I then created /usr/games/scripts where I created shell scripts to launch
the various PC games; for StepMania, it looked like this:
#!/bin/bash
`/home/mythtv/StepMania-3.9/stepmania`
This seemed to work just fine! I hope it works for you as well.
Peace,
Jack.
