Force update the metadata file. Tools < Download < Force Update Games Database Metadata...

The developers are aware and will (if not done already) remediate the issue. EDIT: In the most recent beta, the has been resolved.

Thanks! And glad it awas an easy fix.

I'm not sure how they fixed it, but you can try force updating the metadata file. Tools < Download < Force Update Games Database Metadata...

A couple things you can try: If that don't work, try disabling the startup screen and see if that fixes it. If that fixes it and you want your startup screens, reenable it and try one or the other [or last resort] both of these.

To clarify, the fresh install does or does not show those messages? I ask because you mentioned transferring your settings over. If it does not, you can copy the Data folder (which contains your settings, platforms and playlists) over to the fresh install.

Glad that worked. Edit emulator. Add -f -g (that's dash f space dash g) to the default Command-line Parameters.

Edit emulator. Un-check Remove space...

To best help, can you share some screenshots? In LaunchBox, edit your Citron emulator and share a screenshot of: The main Details section The Associated Platforms section Eidt one of its games and share a screenshot of: The Metadata section The Launching section The Emulation section

lol No. How can the script do something [on its own] if it's not there? It's the script that's doing it for you. The 1st word of each line is kind of telling what it's doing. "If you don't mind physically pressing..." means you manually press the buttons yourself. Regardless, glad you're happy with how things are working on your end.

Well, you shouldn't have to. "pressing Alt+Enter" was meant to be symbolic of what the script does (on the 2nd line). If you don't mind physically pressing Alt+Enter yourself, you can remove those 2 lines altogether. What the script is supposed to do is: (green = the actual script. orange = description of what it's doing.) Sleep, 9500 ;Wait 9.5 seconds Send {Alt Down}{Enter}{Enter Up}{Alt Up} ;"Press" Alt+Enter

If you weren't getting fullscreen before, then you usually need to increase the delay time. aka, wait longer before pressing Alt+Enter. If it's still not working after increasing it, try something crazy like 20 seconds (20000). Start the game and wait at least 20 seconds to see (1) the emulator load, and (2) the script sending it to fullscreen. If after 25 seconds the emulator has loaded but nothing changed, edit the emulator (in LaunchBox) and share with us a screenshot of the Running Script section.

The Sleep, 9500 is the 'delay time' in milliseconds. 9500 = 9.5 seconds.

In short, No. Which platforms specifically did the fresh installation install? A new install 1st launch will scan for StoreFront games you have. But should not be looking-for/auto-installing regular platform console games (i.e. Atari 2600, Playstation etc.).

In MAME, you need to manually configure it for XInput. This might be able to help you along.

My guess is that the auto-play videos feature is part of the Video Playback Support which is not available in the free version.

My antique test PC with no GPU will do that sometimes (Rarely. But sometimes). I've always been able to click Wait for the program to respond, exhibit a little patience in waiting (that means no clicking around on things and just wait), and shortly thereafter have LaunchBox continue as normal.

If it's the same theme as here: Slipstream Theme - Custom Themes - LaunchBox Community Forums ...that particular theme was created using the Community Theme Creator (CTC), a 3rd party [paid for] GUI app to create Big Box themes. You can find the CTC files for the theme here: Slipstream CTC-files - Custom Themes - LaunchBox Community Forums You can edit the .xaml Views files with any text editor. But I'm not sure (never really looked) if there are tutorials/videos available for doing so this way ("manually"). Also, CTC adds in a bunch of [useful] plugin code to make the views do what they do. And could be difficult to decipher when just starting out with XAML. This link... well, is pretty self-describing by its title: Tips for using the Community Theme Creator - video bookmarks and other notes - Custom Theme Tutorials - LaunchBox Community Forums.

Correct. From the Windows Command Prompt within your Dolphin emulators folder, you can type dolphin.exe -h [and press Enter] to get a list and descriptions of the available parameters.

Pretty sure the -b ("batch") parameter is what hides/disables the UI.

Using Custom platform icon images is not available in the free version. If you decide to get a premium license, then it's simply a matter of placing the image files in your /LaunchBox/Images/Platform Icons/Platforms/ folder. i.e. DREAMM.png Installed eXoDOS Games.png ScummVM SVN.png

Yeah, I hear ya. So just contact Support, state your case (just as a formality) as to why you want to change the name that shows and what name you wish to appear. "ABC123" might not still be available, so you may need to get creative. jk You could probably also inquire there about the background history of the display names and any further thoughts. They're the ones (well, the only ones) that can address the issue/concern/thoughts/opinions/changes/etc. regarding the names.

I think we agree that 'a name' needs to be there. Do you think a better way might be, being able to change the name that appears in LaunchBox to something like a username? Or to some other name you wouldn't mind having plastered on your videos/screenshots?
