Command Line Arguments

These options may be passed to xemu as command line arguments to change startup behavior.

Argument Action
-full-screen Launch in full screen
-dvd_path <iso> Load disc image <iso>
-snapshot Discard any writes to the HDD image after exit
-config_path <config> Use <config> as config file (usually xemu.toml)

Advanced

Extra command line arguments are passed as QEMU launch arguments. See QEMU documentation for specifics.

A number of the xemu config file options may be set directly via the QEMU -machine launch argument. For example, the startup animation may be skipped by passing -machine xbox,short-animation=on. You may use -machine help to find similar options.
