about

RemoterSA had too much features for my simple purpose. This lightweight Python27 script can just replace your .bat file. It will monitor the vvvv.exe process all the time and if it crashes it restarts your patch in partially light-speed.

Requires:
Python27
http://code.google.com/p/psutil/

How to use it?

You just have to open the .py file with a text editor and write the path of the vvvv.exe to start and the path to the .v4p you want to open. Don't forget to use the python specific double backslash path (eg: C:\\Folder\\tada)

Coming Soon:

and it summons hovercat as well?

Hi,
Try it with the Dependencies that I included in the Update please.
If it does not change something then your admin right settings have to be changed i guess.

and uninstall other python versions before if possible..
