platform-video-xbox_360
Hey, All.
I'm a new member of the community, and I love my BigBox setup! One of my favorite aspects of this frontend is the smooth integration with EmuMovies, a website that yields great videos for each platform on my system.
In my excitement for new emulators, I recently installed Xenia (the XBOX 360 emulator), only to discover that neither EmuMovies nor the LaunchBox Games Database has a wide selection of XBOX 360 platform videos. This is understandable, as Xenia has limited emulation at the moment, so there probably isn't an urgent need for this type of media.
However, if you're like me and enjoy adding platforms to your setup, it feels nice to include everything you can. For this reason, I created a very basic XBOX 360 platform video, using a similar style as that found in the EmuMovies Unified set. This video was tested at 1920x1080 resolution and looks decent alongside the other videos in the EmuMovies set.
The platform video contains thirty (30) seconds of footage from each of the following XBOX 360 games:
Halo 4 Forza Horizon 2 Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts Please note that the Xenia emulator does not currently run these games, so the footage was taken from actual XBOX 360 gameplay. I realize this type of video will not be for everyone, but if you find it useful, please feel free to integrate it into your setup.
Here's to hoping Xenia makes a lot of progress in the future so that we can experience these awesome games again.
Cheers!

Apple II Platform Video
By sbslc2017
This is my first stab at a platform video. I always felt the Apple IIe TV commercials better evoked the nostaligia associated with these machines better than the showcase of games that are usually shown.

Sony Playstation JAPAN 16:9 1080p Platform Theme
By Riffman81
I tend to keep my Translated and Japanese exclusive games separate from my North American/PAL region games in BigBox and have created this Sony Playstation (Japan) platform theme video. I Wanted to share with the community in case anyone else does the same with their collections and could use this in their setup. I do plan on redoing the video snap used for this theme in better quality so I will be updating this at a later date.
Two different versions to choose from: Game Audio and Remixed Audio

The Year 199X: System Intro Videos
By Zombeaver
These are system/platform intros that I've made with the primary intention of being used with the CityHunter theme which can be found here. Thanks to CriticalCid and keltoigael for this theme!
The file sizes are large, but a high bitrate was necessary in order to avoid these turning into muddy macroblock messes. The addition of digital noise, smoke, VHS damage artifacts, etc. adds a lot of visual information that necessitates a higher than normal bitrate in order to avoid compression artifacts. Believe me, I tried multiple lower rates and they looked awful.
These need to be placed in Launchbox -> Videos -> Platforms.
Keep in mind that the files may need to be renamed slightly based on the names used in your library - if your platform is named "Panasonic 3DO" rather than just "3DO" you'll need to rename the video accordingly to match the name of the platform in your library.

Amiga
Arcade

I realize there's still going to be some outstanding platforms for some people so I'm also accepting requests for additional platforms which I'll work through as I'm able.
The clear logos and platform banners shown in the demo are also available in the downloads section:
For full effect, I'd also recommend putting some good Synthwave tracks in your Launchbox -> Music -> Background folder and enabling background music in Big Box. You can find a lot of good stuff in the genre on Bandcamp and New Retro Wave's Youtube channel. Here's my current playlist of tracks I'm using in my library if you want some inspiration:
Now you're ready to experience Big Box in a neon-drenched haze of cyberpunk goodness

Computer Platform Theme Videos (16:9)
Decided to do some platform theme videos for computer systems. First up is Windows, but I have interest in making themes for Steam, Origin and GOG services (for those of you that separate them) as well as MSX computers (will probably do a single one, but represent multiple generations of it). Unless there is a big interest in it, I probably won't make themes for the Uplay or Battle.net services. I will also include my clear logos for Windows and MSX; keep all Steam, Origin, GOG, Battle.net, Uplay under Windows in my setup.
Tried to incorporate elements of Windows 7 and 10 into the theme (not sure there is a big user base for 8): Windows 7 Start Orb and startup sound and the default Windows 10 wallpaper (first time Microsoft ever released a default wallpaper I didn't immediately change for something else; actually used it for the first year after upgrading to it). And, yes, I am team green, so I specifically looked for a rig with Nvidia's GPUs represented, so apologies to AMD users.... Actually it was the first high res image I found.
Anyhow, enjoy!
Playlist:
1. Windows
2. MSX
3. Steam

Ultrastar Deluxe Video Theme for Frontends
By JaysArcade
OK, here is my offering for Ultrastar Deluxe. This is a Karaoke style singing game much like Singstar. Yes I know this is a game and could/should be in the games section, but I use it as a standalone app and run it as a platform from the main menu. Now if we could only run a platform as an app directly from the top level menu in BigBox, I would be happy.
Here is a short clip of the video.
I also have a version that uses the Ultrastar Deluxe main menu music if you prefer that. That one is not synced to the music however.
You can find both versions here - https://mega.nz/#F!L5ZE2K5R!5VeE3wasVjTdbqoGp0mt9w

Microsoft MSX.mp4
By LeoDLX
I wasn't too pleased with the existing MSX 1 theme video's. They do not reflect the fond memories I have of some iconic games I played over and over again.
This is my first attempt on creating such a video. If people like it I may do more.

Plex Platform Videos
By Pyrometheous
These are 2 Platform videos I made for Plex Media Player. It took me a long while to conceptualize something that would work for it. So hopefully others with HTPCs using BigBox as their primary end will appreciate this.
I've also attached some other media that could be used in big box for plex I used the Translucent - STEAM PC 2D DVD COVER (.PSD) 1.0.1 template for the fancy Box front, so all credit for the nicer looking one goes to @twasjesto
I hope you all enjoy this :-)
EDIT I went ahead and attached a Plex clear logo that I think would work nicely with @Rincewind's BigBox theme.
