Can't launch dreamcast games directly from launchbox with demul

Go guys. I have added a few games to launchbox and have setup demul as launchbox recommended this one. It is working very well for all games except for garou mark of the wolves which hangs on the SNK logo. 

 

I really like launchbox. It downloaded all the meta data for my games. But if I double click the game I want to play it just opens demul and I need to point demul to the game file and then click run dreamcast. Is there a better way to do this? 

 

Ideally I would just click the game I want to play and have it run. Thank you

In Launchbox go to Tools>Manage Emulators. Find your Demul emulator in the box that pops up and edit it. In the Associated platforms tab enter the command lines that are in pic above. The platform name needs to also be entered, but make sure the name you enter is how the name of the platform appears in your Launchbox setup. So however you named the Dreamcast platform make sure that is how you enter the name there. 

Also I think you need to make sure the check box on the first tab for before Rom is checked.

Sorry could you help me with one other thing please. I have it set to play at fullscreen and it does, but with the top menu still visible (with file, config, about) is there a way to hide it
