Its probably due to your image priority settings in Launchbox, its falling back to a disc image when another image is not available, per your settings.
I don't think so because for all my games in this liste,the boxfront is available and well defined as BoxFront type.
Anyway I see it in others theme, for exemple retrotastic.

Hi @cyrheys. Coverbox used to be many different themes. Each system, its own theme. During that time, I made a few different themes for the same platform with alternative views (like the NES one you saw in the video.
With the release of LaunchBox 9.4 I was able to combine the 20+ themes into one, making it much easier to set everything up. The downside, was that I had to choose only 1 text view per system (this is a BigBox limitation). The compromise is that there's a folder called Alternate, which houses the alternate views that I didn't use the official release of CoverBox 2.0.
You can find this location here:
Launchbox\Themes\CoverBox\Views\TextGamesView\Alternate
Copy and paste any of the views from in here, into the TextGamesView folder and overwrite.
Just note: The reason I decided to remove the boxart/cart from the Sega views is that it makes the game details page useless, as you won't be able to see the menu.
Hello @faeran,Thank you very much for your super fast and accurate answer.
Indeed, I found the view with the game description that I looked for in the alternate folder for the nes.
Regarding the sega Saturn, I understand your dilemma.
In my case, I do not use the details menu of the game and I bypass it.
That's why I prefer have the filp with Box and disc, so I have tried to use the Sega Saturn .xaml which is in the alternate folder.
Now I have the flip !
However, I also have a bad surprise, instead of having the coverbox and the DiscArt with the flip , I have DiscArt and …. DiscArt.
The same picture is displayed for both as you can see below.
I guess it's coded somewhere here (picture bellow) but I can not really say what's missing or what's wrong.
Maybe the line highlighted in red is not in the right place ...
Maybe in a flash you'll see what causes it.
So, I posted the xaml "alternate" Saturn I am using.

Hello, at first I apologize in advance for my English,
I am a French user and I love your very original and nice theme.
However, I currently encounter two problems:
1: In the NES view, when I browse my games and I stop on one of them, I do not see the description (field notes) appear as can be seen in your video trailer below from 32 second.
I tried to change witch another Nes view, but it seems that there is only one Gamelist view available per platform in coverbox.
This video bellow captured from my configuration show you how it is displayed for me
2: In some views, like Sega Saturn or Dreamcast when I browse my games and I stop on one of them the list of games does not disappear to flip and let appear the BoxFront and the disc as we can see in your video trailer below
This video bellow captured from my configuration show you how it is displayed for me :
Could you tell me if I missed something or how I could do to see the same display as in your fantastics coverbox's video trailers ?

C'est parce-que les icônes de modes de jeu de Coverbox ne s'affichent que lorsque les modes de jeux sont en anglais :"Single Player", "multiplayer"...etc
Il fait éditer les XML de chaque plateforme et remplacer les occurrences de playmode anglais par les termes français que tu utilise.
Si c'est compliqué pour toi, dis le moi, on essaiera de trouver une solution.
