If for some reason you DON'T want you titles sorted that way (ignoring leading articles) you can set that titles Sort Title to match it's title and it will sort the way you are wanting.

1) You'd have to change how you display the string and instead of using a single text block use something like a WrapPanel with several text blocks inside of it that you can control visibility independently on. Once you move to that set up you could use a DataTrigger in the style of the text block to set Visibility to Collapsed if the values are the same (I don't THINK you'll need a converter to do so, but fairly certain we have one built already for this purpose if you do). 2) Just set to string format to yyyy and it should work for what you want

Your metadata file appears to be corrupted. To correct to go Tools > Download > Force download Games database metadata to download a fresh file and that should correct itself.

What you're asking for is the console's BIOS screen. This was the screen the hardware played when first turned on and haven't yet loaded any data from the cart. Some emulators have the ability to turn that on, others don't. You will need to look into your emulator/core options for something referring to a BIOS screen and enable it if that option is available to you.

Unfortunately custom themes need to be updated to show/use new features as we have no way of injecting them into the theme. Theme should still WORK, it just won't allow you to use the new feature. For example any theme that hasn't been updated to work in 12.10+ won't have the Related Games feature in it.

Are using the default names for those platforms or you're own custom one?

What game/platform are you having the issue with? What method are you using to try and scrape the media from EmuMovies? Download Metadata/Media Wizard or the Add/Edit Game Download Media button?

This theme doesn't support icon's in the sidebar. You'd have to use Default Plus for that functionality (not sure if @faeran put it in any other themes or not)

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)
