  1. Fair warning, it's not cheap (~$200-500 depending on size/needs) and it's rather superfluous, but damn cool for sure. There's a couple Chinese manufacturers who will make custom cut LCD's for you via Alibaba. Just search for 'stretch bar lcd' and put your best negotiating hat on along with your best patient face. They use them for advertising and on buses/subways/etc., so it's pretty common, but It's a lot of back and and forth and not always that easy to communicate. However, you can get exactly what you want if you work through it all (about a month's time total). Just be sure to be explicit with them about what you need, b/c it's purely just a cut LCD and nothing else if you don't specify. You need to tell them precisely what size you need, what connections you need (HDMI, DVI, etc.) and what kind of power supply, etc. End result is definitely awesome FWIW, and I got it working perfectly with BigBox if you get to that point and need help. Definitely impressive to have per-platform and per-game specific marquees now when you change your selection.
  2. Ah, easy enough. I'll just edit the GameMarqueeView.xaml and that should work. I'll have to try it when I get home from work tonight. Thanks for the help!
  3. Totally just getting started and I'm trying to figure out how to get the Banner image to show up in my marquee monitor. I ordered a custom cut 'slim' lcd that has the perfect 16:3 ratio but currently it's showing the game box art in that area. I can't find anywhere in the settings where to change it to use the 'banner' image for the game instead. Thanks for the help!
