C-Beats

LaunchBox wasn't designed to be ran at such a low resolution. You will likely need to set it up on another computer (or with another monitor plugged in) first and then move to that CRT on Big Box. That being said even most Big Box themes aren't really designed to be ran at such a low resolution and you may run into problems there as well.

This error is related to the arrange by setting you are using. If you change to title for now you shouldn't have that error. We had it corrected in beta, but I'm wondering (like Retro808) if this is occurring because of a translation/culture issue. What language are you two running in LB?

Yeah. I've encountered the issue where the scrollbar visibility can't make up it's mind and it causes that flicker. I'm not entirely sure the cause just yet, but once I find it and get it corrected I'll push out a new version.

His plugin kind of does that. It allows you to change your metadata to match metadata in some one else's XML file (or diff XML files between your own builds). This thread was just me sharing mine for use in his plugin for people that were interested in the all the manual changes I've made to my metadata. I was just stating it'd be best to ask Joe in his plugin thread how custom platform names are handled as I honestly don't remember. If the other user doesn't HAVE the platform they'd be able to just copy your XML directly to their data folder and have it all and the plugin wouldn't be required at that point.

Joe is making the plugin and could probably answer that more. I personally will probably not be adding any custom platforms to the metadata I share in this thread. If I did it'd be to blow out the individual tables in my vpin games like Pinball FX3 and Zaccaria Pinball

Glad you got it sorted.

As Retro stated you may need to change view. I was thinking of the original Unified, I thought all it's default views were full screen video but it's been a minute since I've looked. I'd bind a key to "Change View" and then try out what the theme has to offer. Fairly positive it has a full screen video view to match what you see on platforms/categories.

I'm not sure we are talking about the same theme as the older Unified themes display the video on the entire screen.

Most of the "Unified" themes display the video on the whole screen and may be better for you. CoverBox tends to use a large portion of the screen for videos/screenshots as well.

I'd assume the configurations should carry between versions just fine but I don't know that for 100% sure.

Should be able to open up Windows Event Viewer and see an application error log that will tell you what happened.

Would depend what version you need. Right now LaunchBox is on .NET6 but comes with the runtimes so you shouldn't have to grab anything. If you're on an older version I believe we were using 3.1 which can be grabbed here

360 is starting to get into fairly new emulation that doesn't really run well yet. PS2 and under is fairly simple to emulate, anything newer and you WILL need a dedicated GPU to run reliably.

Yeah, when this was made LaunchBox already installed it for you so I didn't even have to worry about that. The popup should take you to a download link for the runtime though. Just download the desktop runtime and then run it and it should work. I'll have to see if I can find the files I used to make this and verify what .NET version it was though. I haven't touched this since I made it.

Typically the options are: Run two builds, one for you to manage all the roms, and another for when people are over Hide all the games in LaunchBox and then in the View > Show / Hide menu of LaunchBox make it so that "hidden" games are still visible. Then in Big Box you'll only see what you haven't hid

Their website is back up but the public API is still down. Once that returns LB functionality will return with it. They haven't announced any ETA on when to expect the API back up.

There is no tool to import them but you can manually add them to LaunchBox. The application path would be RetroArch, then the command line parameters would be to open that libretro core (which is what those games are last I knew).

I believe you're running into the minimum width that the new theme has on it's sidebar. You may need to try another theme (or modify that one) to allow you to use the sidebar at the size you're wanting.

Here would be a good place to start https://forums.launchbox-app.com/files/category/22-playlists-playlist-media/

We have quite a few extensions it's based on. Most of the extensions are file extensions for image, document, web page, and digital comic file types.

As of right now we look at the file extension of the additional applications application path to determine if the app is a "document" or not. As eluded chm hasn't been added to the list of extensions for that to occur with.

Sounds like you may have have a backup data file in your data folder that is getting in the way of your change saving/loading correctly. What does the contents of your \\LaunchBox\Data\Platforms look like?

LaunchBox doesn't have command line functionality so unsure what you're trying to do. The images would leave me to believe you're attempting to do something with Playnite not LaunchBox. ImageDupeGrouper is a popular addon for that frontend.

I'm a bit confused on why a plugin is required for this purpose. Sounds like the functionality already built into LaunchBox. In the side bar select the "Games Missing Media" filter and then select the "Games Missing Video" option.

Not sure anything is really being announced regarding who got the licenses, but most talks about that stream have been happening here
