At least for your first issue, after app startup, if you simply change from one sidebar filter to another, does that kick in the badges?
Seems to be working now as im going through the saves, will see if i come across any more, got 100s of files to sort out.

Im just moving them all into folders, changing sidebar category works for some not others after moving.
Edit: It's fixed the Batman issue though.

I didn't make new saves after Launchbox started, the scan at startup doesn't work
it's like there are no launchbox saves, but I have thousands of them, to view the badges I have to click on them one by one
This is happening to me now, it worked fine in the beta, then i went back to 13.15 and just installing 13.16 only shows when selecting for some games.
EDIT: Maybe it wasnt picking up everything before and i just hadn't noticed.
Also i've added batman beyond PS1 yesterday (not played) and its showing the same save as N64 version.
EDIT 2: Im using Retroarch 1.15 and sort saves and save states to folders with core name was off, maybe the default has changed on the latest version (i don't know why i would have turned that off.)

Black Screen videos, videos shrinking into the corner and general lag are all VLC issues.
You need to change to WMP in options.
By doing this if you have any videos that aren't in standard mp4 format they won't play at all so installing a codec pack is necessary.https://www.codecguide.com/download_k-lite_codec_pack_basic.htm
There's a volume slider in the top bar of LB if they're too loud.

EDIT: I spoke too soon, still happening.

If it is in the database i can't find it either, searched Dark Moon (US title) only shows original 3DS game.

It's not often but every now and then I'll come across a game with a missing box front for a system that I know should have a full set. I've not noticed any corrupt files.

This is still happening.

I can't navigate between any categories in the sidebar as it defaults to 'All' and crashes.

If i remove my Retroachievements details it doesnt happen, went back to 13.12 and same thing.

I'm also missing a lot of images and videos now the logic has changed.
With the title Heavy Fire: Afghanistan and the image/video named Heavy Fire - Afghanistan it used to be picked up now it isn't. Just like Ford Racing: Full Blown with files named as Ford Racing Full Blown and AAAHH!!! Real Monsters named as Aaahh Real Monsters
Renaming them properly with Heavy Fire_ Afghanistan and Ford Racing_ Full Blown obviously picks them up but it would be a massive headache trying to find ones that are named incorrectly 😂
Can't we just have it just to ignore special characters in the title when file matching or would that cause more problems?
You can use the clean up media option to at least see what files aren't associated. Then 'move files to folder' button, rename and/or re-add from there.

Thanks everyone, I have tried all this and for me none of it worked.
In regards to the Rlad Response (thanks), for me I download my videos manually from YouTube and put them in the video folder directly like I do with all the console games. The name of each video is taken from the edit menu of each game so its exactly the same and worked fine previously. So not sure if my issue is the same.
Also thanks C-beats, I already tried all this in the past, and just retried, but no-go, the images still wont show. The image issue has been happening for several months and was hoping some update will fix it as it used to work fine, but unfortunately so far still ongoing.
All these issues worked at some point so hopefully there is a solution.
It's the same issue, when you add videos and save via the edit menu LB changes characters to underscores. So 'Mario's Quest: Gold' becomes 'Mario_s Quest_ Gold' it won't recognise things now unless in that format.

I posted about this in the Beta thread, this was the answer given.

Unfortunately, we discovered a bug in this code that caused unintended consequences. This bug sometimes linked media to the wrong games, or even multiple incorrect games at once. The bug also allowed this association even if the filenames didn't perfectly match the game files, which sounds like what you have going in your library.
The bad really outweighted the good here, so we fixed the bug to ensure accurate media association, which then also broke the association for any external media that only loosely matched the game's file name.
We will continue to support media from outside sources in the way it was intended, but really for optimal functionality throughout LaunchBox, we strongly recommend using the in-app media tools.

Thanks for the explanation, I'll just re-add the videos.

Current Beta isnt picking up a bunch of existing videos named in this format 'Power Stone (USA)' unless they're named the same as the rom file?
Re-adding them obviously changes the name to 'Power Stone-01' then they show up.
Edit: Same issue as @TheNewClassics?

Just noticed LB straight crashing when clicking on All in sidebar.
Im having to remove my Retroachievements credentials going from 'games missing media' back to 'platform category' as it defaults back to 'All' and crashes immediatley.

Ok everything seems to be in order but I'm still having having the problem with the Lynx emulator in RetroArch not saving the shader, even after I used a core override. Using the core override is saving other things though, like when I disable the bezels it saves that. I guess it's not that big a deal but it would be nice because I found a shader for the Lynx that is apparently very similar to the actual Lynx's display.
You use 'save' in the shader menu for shaders, if it's saving other things then you're trying to use the overides menu to save the shader.

After review I think I know what is occurring. This is related to beta changes. The code we use to get the version of PCSX2 to display in the version column is causing the app to throw this message. We'll see if we can find a way to handle this a bit better.
I think it's the WX version that's causing it, i need that one still for the qemu plugin (FFB for steering wheel).
[BUG] Un-rating games defaults to community rating

If you un-rate a game (click below the stars) once you select the game again it copies the community rating.
