Wanted to confirm I see the behavior you are. I believe that was originally caused by a bug in EmuMovies old API but will reach out to EmuMovies to see if we can get confirmation for you as to what the cause is and if we should expect to see it return in the list for free users.

If every game in the platform is hidden, it hides the platform as well. The hide flag can also be bulk edited. All you need to do is go to the platform in question inside of LaunchBox, then select an item in the grid/list and then press Ctrl+A, Ctrl+E then in bulk edit wizard that appears set the field you want to update to "Hide" and check the box.

I'm pretty ignorant to all the inner workings of the Android build as Jason handles that one pretty exclusively, but I believe that code mimics how Big Box handles images in the wheel (or LaunchBox does in the image grid view) and has an image cache that needs reset. I'd check the options and see if there is an option that says something like "Refresh Image" or "Reset Image Cache" or something similar.

On my cab I run x360ce to create a virtual xbox controller that I can can remap my physical controller to depending on what app I'm on. So my buttons map to different xinput controls based on whether I'm in BB, Mame, or one of my PC games. It gives me a lot of control that I couldn't have with just the game/emulator input settings. There are other apps you can do to map your joystick inputs to keyboard inputs as well which could potentially solve your Tekken issue. Just place what ever apps you want to use like in Windows startup folder (or if they have "Start app on computer start up" setting turn that on) and you should be good to go. Regarding BB not getting focus I don't have any quick answers for you as I personally don't have this problem. I've seen some people have this issue if they changed startup/pause screen settings from default, but it's been a minute since I've helped troubleshoot that issue. Perhaps some one who recently corrected that issue will chime in to give ya some assistance with that.

First point is a pretty easy yes. To create another drill down level you enter the Platform Category sidebar filter (where you see the drill downs in the first place) then right click on any item and go to Add > New Category... To change where that category is placed go to the parent tab and select which item(s) you want. You can then place playlists and platforms under the new category. Your desired heirarchy would look like: Root - Consoles (Category) - Nintendo (Category) - Nintendo Entertainment System (Platform) Second point is "kind of". The easiest way is to hide games that aren't hidden in Big Box is to set the hide flag to true on those games. In Big Box settings hide games mark hidden, then in LaunchBox DON'T hide games marked hidden. This will make it work kind of like you want.

Not off the top of my head. I don't know that I've ever seen that happen and it NOT be nahimic running in the services tab so at a bit of a loss at the moment.

nahimic would appear in the services tab, not processes. You can also try to run command prompt as administrator and then run the command "sfc /scannow" (without quotes) and let that run and restart your computer to see if that helps. That process scans system files and makes sure you don't have any extra files in there that didn't get cleaned up properly, or any files that don't match what they should for your OS version.

Unified CTC is the one you'd probably want to grab in that series of themes as it's the oldest and utilizes the most of the new features available.

Cool, glad to hear!

Locking thread as LaunchBox now has this feature built into the Clean Up Media feature already.

I only pinged Erdy but if anyone is having this issue and can do the same I'd appreciate it.

@erdybirdy53. Could you upgrade to beta let the app throw the error then close it? After could you throw your data folder (the whole thing) and the log file into a zip file and PM it to me? Both Faeran and I are having a heck of a time trying to replicate this so we can try to address it.

Can you explain what "does not work" means? What exactly isn't working. If you can provide screenshots (can press Alt+PrintScreen to capture the window and paste into the forums) that help show what you're seeing that'd help as well.

Ah, yeah that would explain the problem lol. You're aspect ratio setting WILL cause stretching horizontally just because it doesn't match. You could potentially apply a ScaleTransform to the image to scale the image the other way, but fixing the resolution on the monitor would be the best option for you.

What type of monitor is your marquee? I know we have marquee options to help with various screen types in Big Box for monitors who's physical dimensions don't match the logical ones (which you see a LOT on cut monitors)

It would still work as 7z, just need to make sure LaunchBox knows to look for it. We haven't ever really ran into the issue because the sets have always been distributed as .zip, you have to manually alter the files to have them as 7z in most cases.

Yeah. The fullset importer doesn't actually look at the files at all and is hard code to add .zip file extension. It wouldn't be hard to change them all after with a search and replace on the xml file though.

It still happen if you stick both Horizontal and Vertical alignments to Center?

Good to know. I was under the impression it had to be ZIP. Well then ignore that part of the statement. I do know Full Set importer always makes the extension zip (because that's what they are distributed in) and so if scanning for removed after you do the conversion you will run into issues since you did change the file.

If you're just displaying a marquee and no supporting/fallback images like your example shows just drop the grid entirely. Use the Image as the root element. Set Stretch="Uniform" and StretchDirection="Both" and leave the other options where they are and it should work out for you.

Not sure I see this as a bug. If you look at your games application path I would assume the file extension is ZIP not 7z, and so LaunchBox doesn't see the item in the folder and marks it as removed. I will say unless MAME has changed recently or a RetroArch core is around that supports it 7z isn't a supported file extension for that emulator and you could very easily run into problems having your games in a 7z archive instead of zip.

I've not developed at all on the Android app, but pretty sure that process mimics what we do on desktop. Images are grabbed based on the games region and we get the image that best matches it. Check and make sure what region you game has associated to it and make sure it isn't Spanish/EU and see if that helps.

Select a side bar that has both of them in then use the real-time filter (next to search bar) to whittle down to the items you want. If you want to make a playlist from your selections after doing so you can using the same button (option will appear at the bottom of the menu)
