Game Media video sound playing in backgroun after launch

[Floyd]

Hey,
I don't know if this is a bug or I'm doing something wrong but here is my issue.
I'm trying to launch a steam game within a steam collection. My launcher script is looking like this:

Code: [Select]

executable = C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe
arguments = /c "%ITEM_FILEPATH%"
The game launches fine but the media video still runs in the background so sound can be heard even after launching the game. I suppse RetroFe isn't stopping video playback.
In collection settings I've set my roms to have a .bat extension and the .bat file in roms folder is looking like following:

Code: [Select]

@echo off
start C:\"Program Files (x86)"\Steam\steamapps\common\Odallus\DATA\Odallus.exe


Here is the relevant log:

Code: [Select]

This only happens while running Steam bat files, every other collection works fine and the media video stops playing (no sound heard) after launching the game.

Read this thread, please: http://www.retrofe.nl/SMF/index.php?topic=86.0
This is not a RetroFE issue; your launcher returns immediately, causing RetroFE to think that your game was closed, and that it can continue.

I've read the topic but couldn't be any wiser. Tried to follow some suggestions from there but still no go...

EDIT:
I just gave up and used Rocketlauncher to launch my Steam games.

RL is generally a good way to go anyway if you use Windows.
