[CXBX Reloaded script needed]

You can autolaunch an executable bypassing the GUI entirely by using the "/load" command line flag.
It's not officially suported behavior, so you may need to update your scripts for later Cxbx-R versions, but changes to this will be rare. 
 

cxbx.exe /load "path to xbe"

Not a dev here: Don't the nvidia graphics use a similar shader pipeline and all that to modern graphic too ? I was reading about CXBX on the (original) website. The system calls are all done though a D3D API I think, although I guess there are some custom bits that need to be emulated. 

By dev I meant that I am the main developer of Cxbx-Reloaded. It's true that Cxbx (and Cxbx-Reloaded) currently work by intercepting DirectX calls,however the DirectX implementation on the Xbox is completely different to the PC implementation, it contains functionality that only exists on the Xbox GPU, for example, so this approach is actually what has been hindering Xbox emulation for so long. One of the key reasons Cxbx-Reloaded is making more progress than Cxbx ever did, is that we are actually redirecting less functionality to native DirectX and Windows API calls than ever before.

Yeah that video leaves a lot to be desired. I am not familiar with that particular emulator, but it doesn't seem much more advanced then the other XBOX simulators out there.  I do hope they keep at it though and get it really working. I would love to replay some of my favorite XBOX games. There are still a lot of titles for the system that were exclusive and never made it to another console or the PC.

A real shame too. AFAIK it uses essentially off the shelf PC hardware for the time. There is a lot of potential to really accurately and efficiently emulate the system with standard PCs, because the architecture is so similar. 

Dev here: The architecture similarity really stops with the CPU, everything else is custom.
