    Unless I'm misunderstanding you the thing you're requesting is already built into our additional app feature. You can set the disk number on the app. We can build a m3u file for you and pass it to the emulator if you have that option disabled. We also have the ability to change disc in the pause menu when doing so. The only thing NOT asked is what disc you want to load, you do have to pick the disc through the versions menu on either LaunchBox or Big Box

    Thanks for trying to help C-Beats. Yeah, i guess additional apps just seems like they should be listed sepertaly from multiple disks, but seeing as how they're already programmed to be one in the same i guess the main thing would just be adding an option to have a popup when a game a launched with multiple disks so users not familiar with the launchbox frontend can have it be user friendly. Especially seeing as how someone already went to the trouble to program multiple disks into launchbox (mainly for m3u files im assuming) just kinda makes sense, and would just make it cleaner in my opinion. 

  2. Would it be hard to impliment Multi Disk Support into launch box in the form of something seperate but similar to additinal apps? and if launchbox knows you've listed more than 1 disk with the selected title then when clicking to play that game it will specifically ask which disk/version you wish to play (Including options for Special Disks, Bonus Disks etc.

    Also, as you know m3u files dont work for every emulator, and they're also kinda not as attractive to use since only the main user of launchbox knows how to access them through retroarch. So far ive just been listing my games like Final Fantasy (Disk 1), Final Fantasy (Disk 2) etc. which isnt to pretty to scroll through. Anyway, be cool to see Multi-Disk get some love after all these years, and implemented as a main feature in some form or another.

    This may simply be an issue with the mouse and it's driver. I have a Razer mouse and had to dump the poll rate because it'd cause most apps and games to stutter like you're describing.

    thanks. i only brought it up because i hadnt noticed any problems in any games or apps outside of launchbox, but who knows you could be right since i dont have another logitech gaming mouse to experment with.

    Doesn't seem to be working for me again. Anyone using this with success as of now? I did update the file and was working about a month ago but tried today and didn't find any videos.

     

    https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/download/2023.07.06/yt-dlp.exe

    Try downloading the yt-dlp.exe from this link and replace the one in your plugin folder to see if that fixes the problem

  5. Is there any way to make the theme less jerky? the boxes dont really bounce in like the regular unified theme. They kinda "glitch" in really jerky like they're lagging. I'm running BB from an SSD and my computer is running a 13900k with an RTX graphics card with DDR5 Ram, so i wouldnt think my hardware should be to slow for the theme. Any ideas or is this happening to anyone else? Thanks

  6. For the past few years, I have occasionally encountered a black screen with audio playing when clicking random games in Launchbox. If I pause the video and play it again, it works normally. It also works normally if I click out of the Launchbox window and back into it. This is essentially the same as pausing and unpausing the video by clicking out of the Launchbox window. I am using VLC. I am wondering if anyone else has this problem and has managed to fix it. Thank you.

  7. Does anyone know a way to stop Yuzu from loading the game library in the background? My library is over a 1000 games and even when launching games through launchbox Yuzu still loads the game library in the background which makes the emulator freeze up for like 5 min till its done. Be nice to just stop the library from loading since theres no need to load it once im already in a game which ive launched through launchbox. 

  8. The bottom bar which had play music as well as other options is gone now. is there an option to re-enable it? Otherwise, is the only way to play music by right clicking now? Also, when selecting to show Text for all games it shows the developer along with the name of the game. is there a way to hide the developer and only show the name of the game?

  9. @phunky1 The updated Script works Great😁! thanks So Much! Great being able to have it decode somewhere other than on the NAS server lol😅, also seems to work a slightly faster but that could just be in my head lol, kuz even with a 12900k CPU i still think the CPU bottlenecks the Hard drives read/write speed lol, but without more testing i could be wrong. But thanks for spending so much time on the script it works great!

    Nice, updated one more bug I found in script if you end up using.  I think if you restart your powershell console it won't ask for the check after every run now that you set your execution policy.  Or try PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File c:\script.ps1  but glad you have both working. 

     

    Nice work also @JoeViking245 for not having any PS3 ISO to test with!

    Awesome!😁 yeah the new version worked perfectly too with no problems thanks! 

    Sorry one last thing lol... 

    For the code you posed Below for your RPCS3-Decrypt-ISO-LaunchBox script you made is there a way to have the decrypted file be decrypted anywhere other than where the Original Encrypted file is located? Here's your original script below for reference (However, If its to much work adding a custom location then no worries, just figured it might be slightly faster saving the decrypted file to my computer rather than back to the NAS Server where the Encrypted files are)

    # Will get ISO param from Launchbox
    param (
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
        [string]$ISOpath
    )
    
    # Put script in same folder as rpcs3.exe or change to direct path.
    $RPCS3path = "$PSScriptRoot\rpcs3.exe"
    #Path to PS3DEC.exe
    $PS3DEC = "$PSScriptRoot\ps3dec\PS3Dec.exe"
    #path to disc key files for decryptions
    $KeysPath = "C:\Roms\Sony Playstation 3\_PS3 Downloading\DKeys"
    
    $Keys = Get-ChildItem $KeysPath
    $ISOname = [System.IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($ISOpath)
    $Key = $Keys | Where-Object -Property name -Like "$ISOname*"
    $KeyValue = Get-Content $key.FullName
    $DecryptISO =  (Split-Path $ISOpath -Parent) + "\$ISOname" + "_DEC.iso"
    
    & $PS3DEC d key $KeyValue $ISOpath $DecryptISO | Out-Null
    
    # Mounts the ISO to a drive letter
    $Vol = Mount-DiskImage -ImagePath $DecryptISO -PassThru
    # sleeps 2 seconds to wait for disk to mount.  Can be changed as needed.
    Start-Sleep -Seconds 2
    # Then gets the drive letter that the ISO was mounted to.
    $Voldisk = $vol | Get-Volume
    # Created the $path variable to the EBOOT.BIN file for lanching in rpcs3
    $path = $Voldisk.DriveLetter + ':\PS3_GAME\USRDIR\EBOOT.BIN'
    # Lanches rpcs3 with EBOOT.BIN path, can add extra arguments for rpcs3.exe if needed.  Not tested in this script.
    & $RPCS3path $path
    # sleeps 2 seconds until rpcs3 has a chance to start
    Start-Sleep -Seconds 2
    # Waits for rpcs3 to be closed
    Wait-Process rpcs3
    # Dismounts the ISO image drive
    Dismount-DiskImage -ImagePath $DecryptISO
    Remove-Item $DecryptISO -Force

    You downloaded the script from link right?

    It maybe windowsPowershell issues, but open powershell and run script from the prompt like C:\path\myscript.ps1 or path into location of script and do .\script.ps1

     

    Oh and maybe your execution policy.  run this as well:   Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -force

     

    ok so I GOT IT WORKING! i tried this to see my execution policy and it was restricted so set it to Unrestricted using this command Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted according to online

    image.png.11ceb7cf147b8cae40752680e29e74d7.png

    Afterwards I was able to run the script but i have to tell it to allow it each time but it still worked!!!!!

    image.thumb.png.5b67a4406718272b36cec001df93b9d7.png

    Link to your script for anyone else looking to use it! 

    https://github.com/ptmorris1/RPCS3-ISOLauncher-Launchbox/blob/master/Bulk-Decrypt-ISOs.ps1

     

    So now both scripts work beautifly as far as i can tell😁. So everyone now has 2 ways to batch convert their ISOs incase one doesnt work for anyone thanks to you both @phunky1 & @JoeViking245. Thanks so much for the help!

  12. 🥳🥳@JoeViking245 Got his code working for bulk Decrypting!

    This is the code he made below which worked😁

    As he was saying just replace your paths in the first 3 rows Listed below....

    1: ps3dec.exe decoder program (.exe) location

    2: Folder Location for your new decrypted games

    3: path to location of your Batch file & Encrypted roms which will be decrypted

    @echo off
    set path2ps3dec=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\PS3DEC\ps3dec.exe
    set decryptedISOFolder=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\DECRYPTED_GAMES\
    set path=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\PS3DEC\
    
    setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
    Set key=
    
    for %%f in (*.iso) do (
      set keyFile=%%~dpnf.dkey
      set /p key=< "!keyFile!"
    
      echo key file: !keyFile!
      echo key=:     !key!
    
      start "" /w /d "%path%" "%path2ps3dec%" d key !key! "%%~dpnxf" "%decryptedISOFolder%%%f"
    )
    pause

    No problem, I did find a typo just now and updated the post.  That maybe the issue as it was a bad path.

     

    Just fixed a few issues and actually tested it.  Has some verbose details now so hopefully good to go.  https://github.com/ptmorris1/RPCS3-ISOLauncher-Launchbox/blob/master/Bulk-Decrypt-ISOs.ps1

    hmmm... tried the new code but the same thing is happening with windowspowershell. The window launches and imediately closes. below is the code i used with my paths replacing the original ones. is there a way to pause the script at the end so the window will stay open so i can read/post what is says? i tried adding -noexit and also tried adding Read-Host -Prompt "Press Enter to exit" to the end of the script but it didnt keep the window from forcing closed

    Here is a Powershell that should work.  Change the first 4 variables paths to suit your needs....$PS3DEC,$ISOroot,$ISOdecrypt,$dkeys.  Then save to .ps1 file and run.

    I tried your code before I ran out of the house this morning, so I didnt have much time to troubleshoot😵, but after changing the paths and running the script the powershell window would open and immediately close without doing anything. I'll mess with it a bit more in a couple hours once I get back and see if I can figure out why that is and let you know. Thanks!

    Here's my updated batch file.

    @phunky1's PS script will probably work right from the get-go, but I'm bound and determined to get mine to work on at least your 2 test files. lol

    @echo off
    set path2ps3dec=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\PS3DEC\ps3dec.exe
    set decryptedISOFolder=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\DECRYPTED_GAMES\
    set path=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\PS3DEC\
    
    setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
    Set key=
    
    for %%f in (*.iso) do (
      set keyFile=%%~dpnf.dkey
      set /p key=< "!keyFile!"
      start "" /w /d "%path%" %path2ps3dec% d key !key! "%%~dpnxf" "%decryptedISOFolder%%%f"
    )
    
    pause

     

    haha. Gave it shot but it didnt work. here's what it said without the ECHO 

    image.thumb.png.d1e9eb1c708268923a677d52b0492179.png

     

     

    also tried the older version without echo just to be sure 😁


    set path2ps3dec=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\PS3DEC\ps3dec.exe
    set decryptedISOFolder=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\DECRYPTED_GAMES\

    for %%f in (*.iso) do (
      set keyFile=%%~dpnf.dkey
      set /p key=< "%keyFile%"
      %path2ps3dec% d key %key% "%%f" "%decryptedISOFolder%%%f"
    )

    pause

    Another last ditch effort. lol 

    Wait... the lon-gass key wasn't showing in your last image.  Do you have the dkey files in with the iso's you're decrypting?  So the one batch file, 2 .iso files and 2 .dkey files?

     

    Ugh didnt work lol. But Yeah they're all in the same folder like in the screenshot below....

    image.png.368c6926e97acd37034c97b42fb7c80c.png

     

    The new line of code just gave this result...

    Change the one line to look like (add echo in front of it). Then look at the full command line(s) that would have been executed.

    echo %path2ps3dec% d key %key% "%%f" "%decryptedISOFolder%%%f"

    I'm assuming your testing this in a folder with just 2 iso files (and their dkey files) and not ALL of them. ;) 

     

    this was the output from adding echo. nothing was decrypted. just asks you to press any key to continue and then the window closes. lol and yeah im only testing with 2 files in a folder on my desktop for now haha

    Glad it's [finally] working.  :D You should now be able to create a new emulator in LB as was originally discussed/shown way back when, using this batch file.

     

    As for the bulk decrypt batch file, now that things are all ironed out it can be fixed too. (if you decide to use it)

    @echo off
    set path2ps3dec=D:\PS3\utilities\ps3dec\ps3dec.exe
    set decryptedISOFolder=D:\temp\decryptedISOs\
    
    for %%f in (*.iso) do (

      set /p key=< "%keyFile%"
      %path2ps3dec% d key %key% "%%f" "%decryptedISOFolder%%%f"
    )
    
    pause

    🤞

    Yeah it worked great! Thanks :) for the batch file i gave it a try only changing folder locations and this was the result

    image.thumb.png.cff6bd3bd20513d5c9fa158e69ee4566.png
