Thanks dude but THIS is my problem

i dunno what to write AFTER the /v to Choose OpenGL oder DirectX9

i tested with things like these :

dolphin.exe /v [color=#FF4500]plugin_opengl.dll[/color] /e romname.ext

but dolphin choosed NO VideoPlugin (Blank)

does anybody know what i must instead of [color=#FF4500]plugin_opengl.dll[/color] to Make DirectX9 or OpenGL work?

I will let it choose by Commandline, batch1 should start with DX9 Plugin and batch2 should start with OGL

Plugins/Plugin_VideoOGL.dll

The relative path. Like it is in the Config.ini file.

I´m now using the emuControlCenter to start my Games
i configured the emu in this CLI via this code

"C:\Dolphin\Dolphin.exe" /V Plugins\Plugin_VideoOGL.dll /e %ROM%

%ROM% is a Variable by the tool

It doesn´t Found anything
/V C:\Dolphin\Plugins\Plugin_VideoOGL.dll --> doesnt work
/V Plugins\Plugin_VideoOGL.dll --> doesnt work
/V "Plugins\Plugin_VideoOGL.dll" --> doesnt work
/V "Plugin_VideoOGL.dll" --> doesnt work
/V Plugin_VideoOGL.dll --> doesnt work

i don´t know any other option does anyone of the coder know how to handle this?

Try this?
Dolphin.exe --video_plugin=Plugins/Plugin_VideoOGL.dll
