What version of Windows are you on? My Windows 11 doesn't have BigBox.exe in this path. I'd have to check my cab (which is on W10) to see if it's there.

Oh, it's a Steam game? What its Steam ID #? (In the games Launching section, the Application Path should by something like "steam://rungameid/21130".) Continuing with these Q&A's will help determine what's-going-on, why-it's-happening (hopefully) and give the developers and idea how-to-fix-it for this situation so other don't come across this in the future. If you just want to do a brute force fix-the-dang-thing... Save it with the game that's found Resident Evil 4 (2005) and the LBDB ID # showing as 7801 Exit LaunchBox In Windows Explorer Navigate to /LaunchBox/Data/Platforms/ Open Windows.xml using any text editor Search for <DatabaseID>7801</DatabaseID> Replace 7801 with 261464 <DatabaseID>261464</DatabaseID> Save and close the file Open LaunchBox Select [only] your Resident Evil 4 (2005) game Tools - Download - Update Metadata and Media for Selected Games When asked "Would you like to update games with existing metadata and/or media?" Select "Yes, download and replace all existing metadata and media" (the 1st option) Click finish to "grab the correct games data" Now you can Edit the game Go to the Alternate Names section Select "Resident Evil 4: Remake" Click "Set Selected Name as Title" Click OK to save and close

Try... Go to Tools - Download - Force Update Games Database Metadata. When that's completed, try again

The Game Details panel, Overview section will only show select images. Not sure specifically which images are available there. But I do know e.g. Disc and Clear Logo won't be visible there. To preview all 9, you can click on one of 'small' the images, so it becomes the main image, then click the main image. This will show it fullscreen. Press Left/Right arrows to navigate through the images. Press Escape to exit fullscreen preview.

Does it show any indication of a video on the right Game Details panel? Can you share a screenshot of that?

At the top of this page, click Premium and then select Lost Your License?. Follow the instructions and you will get an automated email response with your license file attached. Place the license file into you LaunchBox folder. Be sure to check you spam folder in the response doesn't go to your inbox.

LaunchBox saves video (and image) files to a name that's the same as the games Title or ROM filename. This is how it later appropriates the corresponding media for a particular game without needing to maintain a physical "database" of sorts of the associated media. It also suffix's a -01, and increments if there're more than one of that type. Your only option is to name your video the same as the games Title or ROM filename. Then, aside from suffixing it with -01, LaunchBox will not rename them. Keeping with no database of sorts to speak of for maintaining your media's associations, LaunchBox looks in specific folders for the media/type requested. So they need to be placed in the respective folders to be [properly] found.

LaunchBox does not dictate the controls used inside the emulator. That's between you and your emulator. But it does pass command-line parameters. Which is why I thought 'maybe' that could be causing the issue. Test: In LaunchBox, right-click a game and select Open MAME. From within [standalone] MAME that opens up, load "the game" and check if P1B2 is working as it should. If it's not working, [in LaunchBox] edit your MAME emulator and make absolutely sure that the mame.exe you're pointing to is the exact same one you were testing on, outside of LaunchBox. This is actually an [unfortunate] common occurrence. But an easy fix. If in that Test it is working, I'm not sure what to tell you.

That's an odd mapping for that button (vs. the default binding Left-Alt). In LaunchBox, edit you MAME emulator. Look at the Default Command-line Parameters. If it has -keyboardprovider dinput in it, try remove that. If it doesn't, try adding it.

I don't think anyone's submitted a Bug Report about it. I happened to have come across this issue this morning and submitted a report.

Check in Controller Mappings. System Menu < Options < Controller Mappings (or Keyboard Mappings if your encoder is set to keyboard mode). Check what's mapped to "Exit". "Exit" closes Big Box. Clear it (best option) or change it to something else. Hopefully that helps,

Do you have Premium version of LaunchBox? Video playback is not available in the Free version.

May be a shot in the dark but look in the Controller Mappings. System Menu < Options < Controller Mappings (or Keyboard Mappings if using keyboard input in-game). Make sure you've mapped "Close the Active Window" to exit the emulator. And not "Exit" as that exits (closes) Big Box.

Myself, I keep all LaunchBox images (that I want to store) checked. Then in the EmuMovies tab, select only the media that is not available from the LaunchBox Games Database. Which leaves you with Manuals and Videos.

You could Audit the platform (Tools - Audit - Arcade). Then in the audit window select all and then copy/paste it into a spreadsheet. Remove all the columns except Application Path. Then do a find/replace to remove the path and .zip, leaving just the ROM name.

I believe in Google Docs (whatever their spreadsheet app is) you can just press Ctrl+v. Excel is just too 'robust' for our own good.

It's not a "list", but you can see them by selecting Games Missing Media in the dropdown box in the left panel. Then select Clear Logos. To do what you were asking in Excel, after having selected the games/rows in Audit and pressing Ctrl+C, you can right click in a cell and select Paste Special, then select Text.

v2.2.1 Released Fixed: Save button gets hidden when disabling an emulator Improvement: Refresh All now only takes [up to] seconds to complete. New Feature: Added mini bezel preview image New Feature: Added button to navigate to the selected platforms bezel folder New Feature: Bezel folders for platforms no longer existing in LaunchBox will be deleted IF they are empty

Then it should be taken care of with Box Front Priorities. Just make sure Box-Front is above Advertisement Flyer-Front in the priority list. Or, since Arcade is the only one that has Advertisement Flyer-Front images, assuming you don't want to see that image type at all, just un-check the box. May also scroll through all 12 images for that game and see if there are other Box-Front images. If there's more than one of that type, they will alternate randomly.

Check that your game(s) actually have the Box-Front (or Box-Front-Reconstructed) images.

Your 1st screenshot is showing Box-Front images downloaded from EmuMovies. The 2nd one is showing Advertisement Flyer-Front images downloaded from LaunchBox Games Database.

What's your monitor size? 1920x1080? It looks like it's not going to the bottom (and top?) of the screen. (Maybe that's how your monitor is, or you messed with the .lay file? Not sure exactly how that works.) If that were "fixed", you'd gain a little more real estate. Decreasing the size of the left/right sides will of course increase the width of the playfield. But will also distort (stretch) it's 256x224 (3:4) resolution. (I think) to do what you want, you'd need to find/create a bezel image with narrower side bars and adjust the lay file to match. What you may have seen is someone had a bezel for 7:8. Which would make it a little wider. When you go into the Tab menu - Video during gameplay, you can switch between Bezel (or 3:4) and 7:8 to see the width difference. Turn off Maintain Aspect Ratio and see how out-of-wack it can get.

Can you share a screenshot of what you're seeing?

Sincerely, thank you for reading the documentation! I'm going to guess: "many" = 109. Thanks. But that won't be necessary. This plugin "knows".

To clarify, are you talking about the number of platforms? e.g. You have 191 and the plugin is saying 82. Any chance you have 109 platforms that use either MAME (or a derivative like MAMEUI), RetroArch or DOSBox? If so, the 3 emulators are blacklisted from the plugin.
