As a little side bonus, I use my Xbox controller's guide button to open Game Bar and change displays right there. That way you don't even need to use the keyboard at all. You can also enable joystick mouse control per app. I also enable Xbox mode and use the compact menu to keep everything tidy. Added LB/BB to the app menu here and that's how I play my games with very little hassle.

Anyways, to address this issue for anyone interested, Import the games manually by drag and dropping the exe files straight to Launchbox and put the proper name in at the end of installation options. LB will download all the correct media and fill in all the correct metadata.

Your best bet is to disable the monitor screen and use only the TV screen while your in BB. Use the windows key+P and select second screen.

I'm having the opposite issue. I have both RE1(1996) and RE1:HD Remaster from 2015 and they both scrape as the 2015 version. I see that LB Database has the 1996 version for Windows, but it won't show up in the list when I click on the X. Also, I have both Resident Evil 2 games, and the RE2 Remake is scraping the 1998 metadata, but has the Remake art attached. The 1998 version has the right metadata, but is scraping the Remake for art. I got all them on Steam. The original trilogy released earlier this year. It seems like LB has problems with the Resident Evil series in general. Resident Evil 3 Nemesis and the Remake are imported with the proper media though.

Doesn't fix my issue, but good to know either way. I might have come across something that will help me though. I can condense my Retroarch installs back down to one installation by using the "content directory override" option in Retroarch. It does overrides based on roms folder rather than core/platform itself. I still have to go through setting everything up, but it should work out in the end fingers crossed.

I have multiple Retroarch installs in Launchbox and have them named slightly different according to the cores/settings they use. For example, Retroarch, my main installation. Then Retroarch(Gamegear), Retroarch(Master System), Retroarch(MS-DOS) etc. For the Retroarch installs that have different names, Launchbox won't let me set hardcore mode for achievements to off. Is there a way around this, or would I have to just name them all "Retroarch" for Launchbox to allow me to change this setting?

Dang I'll keep my ear out and chime in when I find something...

Did you ever figure this out? I'm just now trying to get add 7th Heaven to LB so I can autorun the game with mods without going to the launcher first.

Kind of a shame that Mame can't at least have the option to upscale 3D arcade games like MK4 or Tekken Tag Tournament. Maybe someday...

Sorry again for bumping, but something occured to me this morning and I wanted to share here. I started thinking, why don't I just make my 4K TV the primary display. I'll set my taskbar to both screens and also enable auto hide taskbar. This way everything will natively just launch on the TV instead of my 1440p display. Then when I want to launch PC games on my 1440p display, 99% of the time they have a monitor selction in the graphics optinons anyways. The reason I didn't do this before, is because my 4K TV is the LGCX OLED. OLED's have a notorious problem with screen burn in. I already set my wallpaper to black so it literally looks like it's turned off. Then I thought, why not just make it primary and auto hide taskbar so the burn in won't be an issue. Now i'm running it this way, and don't need third party apps or a bunch of ahk scripts to fix flaws with the old setup. Again, sorry for making a bunch of posts in various threads these last few weeks. Just want to share the experience with anyone who might be in a similar situation. Launchbox is an amazing piece of software that i've always dreamed of. The community here is amazing. Thank you guys for everything you do!

Thank you for this. Display Fusion seems to be a bit easier to use than MonitorSwitcher. The only problem is, CXBX Reloaded goes fullscreen instantly on game launch and I can't move the window afterwards. Xenia has no problems at all since it starts windowed then goes fullscreen afterwards. I tried using alt+enter to fullscreen a windowed CXBX, but it doesn't do anything unfortunately. Other than that, everything is working fine now. Thanks for your help

So I found this app called DIsplayFusion. It has a feature called triggers. Basically, on opening an app(CXBX, Xenia, etc.), it can move the app to the screen of your choosing. Works like a charm. Would still love to see this feature implemented into Launchbox in the future. Hope this helps anyone who has this problem in the future.

So I found a tool called MonitorProfileSwitcher, and I also have this tool called AutoActions. In MonitorProfileSwitcher, i've set up two profiles. One with my 1440p monitor set as primary, and another profile with my 4K TV as primary. I set up a hotkey for each profile. For my 1440p primary profile, the hotkey is - For my 4K TV primary profile, the hotkey is = In AutoActions, i've made a profile so when CXBX Reloaded or Xenia is launched, it automatically launches MonitorProfileSwitcher. When CXBX or Xenia is closed, it closes MonitorProfileSwitcher. My question is, is there a way to add the - or = hotkeys to a commandline argument section in AutoActions, or maybe to add them hotkeys to the running script section of Launchbox/BigBox? Sorry for the complicated mess, I wish LB/BB had a feature built in like this so we could avoid using this many third party applications to get the desired result. Thank you in advance.

Usually i've always just disabled my primary screen when running LB/BB to get standalone emulators to launch on the correct screen. I used to do it this way because a few standalone emulators would launch on the wrong screen and not remember window/screen position and size. Now it seems like a lot of emulators have fixed this issue and have no problem running on the correct screen. Emulators such as RPCS3, Yuzu, PCSX2, Cemu, and Dolphin have no problem remembering the screen to open on. However, i've noticed CXBX Reloaded and Xenia do not remember the screen to open on. Does anyone know of a way to fix this issue with these two emulators?

It worked! I have only -g in the default command line parameters. Here is the full running script for Cemu now... Sleep, 8000 SetKeyDelay, -1, 110 Send {LButton} Send !{Enter} Return Esc:: WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}} Thank you very much!
