About This File
Intro
Unibox allows you to add roms to any Launchbox installation you have running on your local network on the fly. It also automatically adds metadata and media. This can be done in real-time, making it useful for installations such as arcade machines or rigs dedicated to running BigBox. No manual adding of roms to folders required, or going into Launchbox to add more games.
Project thread here for more up to date features and screenshots etc. The videos below were made on the first version so there's been a number of improvements since then.

What's New in Version 0.9.13 - Beta See changelog
Released
New Features:
- Edit Game metadata and media on the fly without needing to spark up launchbox. Changes apply immediately in both Launchbox and BigBox
- Shows all present media for a game and allows you to edit or upload a primary file for each media type (images, videos, music, manuals).
- One click for automatic websearch on Platform, game name and media type.
Usage scenario - you're playing Battlezone on BigBox on your couch, but can't see the manual in BigBox. Just pick up your tablet, click the websearch option, download the manual and add it to BigBox from unibox in one click. Done. You can also use it as a media browser - letting you look at things like the manual whilst the game is playing. Super handy...
