    launchretrogirl2562's post in Embarrassing schoolboy Mame question... šŸ«¢ was marked as the answer   
    Edit your mame.ini file and set:
    keepaspect 1 unevenstretch 1 aspect 7:8 Ā  Or if you want this only for vertical games, create a vertical.ini file in your MAME ini folder with those settings. MAME will automatically apply it to all vertical games. Ā  For horizontal games in MAME, you can create a horizont.ini file (note: MAME uses "horizont" not "horizontal") in your MAME ini folder with these settings: keepaspect 1 unevenstretch 1 aspect 12:7 Ā  Or test it with this command mame gamename -aspect 12:7 -unevenstretch

    requires elevation means the emulator2 is asking to be run with administrative privileges.
    Right click on your 'emulator2.exe' and select properties.
    Then go to to compatibility tab.

    It is the setting I highlighted in yellow.

    But before doing that. Ask first why that program needs those privileges. Most applications can (and should be able to) run without admin privileges.

    i always take my arcade.xml out of the data folder (also as a backup)
    so i always start from scratch.
    so move arcade.xml fromĀ [drive]:\Launchbox\Data\Platforms
    do a full import.
    uncheck all images downloads. and perform a full import.
    takes 5 minutes.

    launchretrogirl2562's post in What is the current procedure for setting icons for custom playlists? was marked as the answer   
    Not 100% sure sure. But I think i have this legacy directory cause I always was using my own LB and BB theme with it's own icons.
    So the developers going from version 3.20 to later versions made 2 directories, one for the icons they use out of the box, and one for the custom icons.
    Must be something like that.
    Cause I always have 2 directories in the mediapacks directory (legacy and nostalgic)

    launchretrogirl2562's post in Steam game videos and WMP was marked as the answer   
    The K-Lite Codec Pack is a collection of codecs and tools that enable Windows computers to play a wide variety of audio and video file formats. It's designed to provide a user-friendly way to ensure your system can handle virtually any media file you encounter.
    From the screenshot, u can see that VLC natively can play webm files, but if windows media player cannot...then you are missing the necessary codecs for it.
    Normally, when u update Launchbox, it will ask u if u want to install the K-Lite codec pack.

    I think you need to apply the 'Big Details' theme in theme manager.
