Starting games in PPSSPP from another app

adb shell am start -n org.ppsspp.ppsspp/.PpssppActivity -e org.ppsspp.ppsspp.Shortcuts /sdcard/PSP/etc/etc

It's my primary method of debugging.

Please note that it must be a full path (or http:// URL, to stream from a PC on the same wifi) to the game. If it doesn't work, check the adb logcat to see if it failed to open the path you passed.

Yeah I've tried *exactly* that, but it just doesn't work. Just gets me to the PPSSPP file chooser. Logcat doesn't even mention the game...

...turns out it does work on my Nvidia SHIELD Android TV, but not in the emulator. No idea why.
