  1. I noticed a quite odd/interesting issue when upgrading to 13.11.  LB/BB appeared to be launching additional applications over and over again after launching once.  Specifically, after launching a game using the Sinden light gun software as additional app, LB/BB attempted to start the Sinden software again and again during gameplay, rendering play impossible.  My troubleshooting efforts led to downgrading back to 13.9, where behavior finally subsided.  Any chance this kind of behavior has been addressed in this latest beta, or perhaps with 13.12?

    I feel this could be related to the issues i have in launchbox with videos playing but remaining black. There seems to be a real problem with video playback in both launchbox and big box that is very difficult to replicate, and when you have the problem it only happens about 50% of the time (for me at least). My setup has worked fine for weeks, and the only thing i have changed are more games added, so i have no idea why i have started having video problems.

    Same with me, mainly in LB.  I will select a game, only to hear the audio of a video playing behind a black screen.  It is only when I click on the black screen that the video appears.  And like you, it does not happen every time, so very difficult to replicate or predict.  This behavior was not happening in older releases, say 13.3 and older.

    I'd verify your notifications settings. You may be hiding the notification that shows saying there was an update

    I have always had update notifications turned off, and proceeded with checking/updating manually.  No idea why it states that it is checking for that short of a period and then nothing, never happened before.  Tried a full reset of the computer but no change.

    No, LB process is intentionally running for a small period of time after you close the main window as this is when the closing save event occurs. Once the save event is finished the process will close itself (or should).

    I noticed when the save event is occurring that I can still hear the audio from the last video snap that was playing when I close BB.  Is there a way to get the audio to stop (or at least mute) while the process is closing itself out?

  6. I use a hotkey (escape) to exit BigBox.  I recently updated from 12.3 to 13.3.  I have noticed since updating that when exiting, BigBox closes, but the audio from the preview video that was playing when the hotkey was pressed continues for 15+ seconds before it stops.  This was not an issue with 12.3 and previous editions.  Any thoughts?  Thanks.  

  7. Is there an option in the Downloads section of the forum to view a complete list of all the available submissions in the order they were submitted/updated, instead of having to go through all the individual categories one by one?  I like the "What's New" section on the initial downloads screen, but it only goes back so far.  I ask because there was a few submissions I was interested in several weeks ago, but I did not have time to grab them until now, and now I cannot remember what they were, but I would be able to spot them when I see them.  Thanks!

    It's not currently an option (all video files will loop), but I do kind of like how pixelcade is doing it. I think I'll add it as an available media item (Videosnap followed by Marquee image) for both platforms and games.

    Have you had a chance to add 'Videosnap followed by Marquee image' as an available media item (or is it still being considered for implementation)?  I do not remember seeing anything in the release notes as of yet.  Thanks!

    Thank you sooo much. YouTube has taken down the Triforce video because it was loosely connected to Nintendo. My channel is now tanking as a result so this is always a help. I'm making a video now on how I will adapt for this crap.

    Any chance you could reupload it here?  Was looking for it this morning but was disappointed to hear your news.  Thanks.

  10. I have had several instances this week in which BB starts as normal, then when I choose to transition to LB, it crashes upon startup.  Replacing the data files from a backup has allowed LB to open.  However, this morning, LB is crashing again, and no data backup info is working.  I have replaced the data files using 6 different backup versions, but the crash persists, but like I said, BB will open as normal.  There is no error message, just the initial loading messages, the main LB window comes up for 2 seconds, then a crash to desktop.  Please help!  Thanks.

  11. I recently began using DOSBox Pure (Retroarch) as the emulator of choice for my eXoDOS collection.  After importing all 7,000 titles (.zip files), LB is only listing 6,997.  Unfortunately, with having 7,000 games, with many of them shareware/freeware that I have never heard of, it is very difficult to pinpoint which 3 are missing.  I have checked and rechecked my .xml file to see where the problem lies and if I can identify which 3 titles are missing.  However, my .xml shows all 7,000 (7,000 application paths, ID's, title's, etc. without duplicates).   Any thoughts as to how I can narrow this down?  Not a big deal, but knowing that 3 are missing is making my OCD kick in.  Thanks!
