C-Beats

Because this beta doesn't have a new video player. One is slated potentially for beta 3.

Glad you're enjoying it. Post up if you run into any problems. We have a fairly active community that should be able to answer most questions you may have as you get started using the app.

Can you post up a screenshot of the exact error you're seeing? It'll be helpful for tracking down the reasoning for it.

Unfortunately not the way the systems are built currently. We'd also need a way for users to transition from old english values to new translated ones. We already have issues with that in a few other fields being broken. I'd rather not break more trying to implement it in a rush. Be awesome if you could submit a feedback item on it though, be curious how many we have hoping for more of things like that. Thankfully the auto-progress things you can put your own values in and the system should migrate values from english to you language for you automatically and still work with the entire system. The other fields are a bit more tricky.

Run the installer again over your install. Make sure the installer doesn't try to create a LaunchBox folder within your LaunchBox folder. The install won't overwrite anything and your data is safe. This error almost always occurs when an overzealous AV quarantines the CEF dll. They tend not to like that it opens a browser because bad actors in the past have done malicious web stuff with things like that

Totally forgot to remind ya to try. Thanks for remembering for the two of us. Glad it's working once again!

Not sure this is doing what you think it is. The import or download wizard still will only have checked what items you checked previously. This feature just determines what we grab for you when we automatically import games via startup auto scan (ROM or Storefront)

Make sure Opacity setting set as a property on the control and is only set via the style. If you have a property attached it'll overwrite it. Style should default Opacity to 0

Yeah, just in the FALSE datatrigger set opacity to 0, then in the TRUE make sure opacity animates to 1

Don't really remember what lines. Just look for EventTrigger in the old file, and see that it's been changed out for a DataTrigger pair.

Nope I did, missed moving them to resource files when we added em. I'll get em added but they won't appear until next beta is pushed out.

Seems those strings were never converted to use resource file strings. Good catch!

We meet again! This release has a pretty significant number of new strings added so we're reaching out a bit earlier than usual. We have at least one more beta for this release but should have all strings completed and available to you now. @faeran added a pretty significant number compared to most releases, feel free to swear at him under your breath when you see how many there are this go around. He can take it! @Opak @Kondorito @Cauptain @Nyny77 @dukeemu @cyanjiang @Just001Kim @MajKSA @gamehacker @alexposad @k_kutsugi @Bardock @Soomin papa @thewhite

Fairly certain if you have logging on you can see in the log the before/after values. Also if you have auto-backups enabled you can look in those files to see what it was and set it to that again in the current files.

Sounds more like a potential issue with Cloud Sync not playing nice. Do you have it enabled? Do you see if still if you turn it off?

all 3 are on SteamGridDb

Pretty sure it's CriticalZone using a platform theme video. Is one of the oldest BB themes there are and comes packaged with BB already. Just need to change to it.

You'd have to edit the view file. Can go to the FlikBox folder in \\LaunchBox\Themes and then go to Views\HorizontalWheel3GamesView. Starting at line 403 you see cameras being mentioned with their position and x,y,z coordinates. x is left and right, y is up and down, z is forward and back. You want to move the camera back so you'd increase the z number. The style goes on to change how far it's back based on your resolution you could probably remove all that to ensure it's always using what you set it to. I believe the spin may be something hard coded into that view type. I'd have to double check.

As we discussed a bit in discord. The event trigger firing off the loaded event needed migrated to a data trigger that fired on the IsLoaded binding being set to true, and then reset everything when it's false. Attached should work but I admit I didn't try it. GameDetailsView.xaml

Not the cleanest way to do it but can just remove the image from the themes media folder (\\RetroCrt\Media\Theme\scanlines.png)

Believe so but I'd reach out to support@unbrokensoftware.com. Some one there can walk you through the best path forward.

Yeah, I admit I'm flying a bit blind as I've never heard of some one leaving MAME open like that for that purpose. You're likely correct, but I also have no idea why BB would freeze if just alt tabbed for that long of time either.

Verify what video playback engine you're using in that version VLC is deprecated and really unstable. You should be using WMP if you want the machine to stay running that long (or longer). Theme use also can determine how stable the app is. Try Default theme and see if you still have the issue. That being said, leaving a game open shouldn't be required. Also if you would like we introduce a new screensaver mode in the latest beta you could try out if you're looking for something better (and more stable) than attract mode.

Go to Tools > Manage > Emulators. Select that platform and press edit. In the bottom of the Edit Platform window make sure "Disable Auto-Import" is checked. Should have been by default for that platform already.

Not ever heard of this being report. If not already turn on logging and we can see if sheds any light as to what is happening. Generally speaking something like that points to the inability to save the XML files to the data folder correctly. Happens a lot when you have any sort of syncing software running against the folder while the app is running (things like DropSync and OneDrive)
