The built in achievement scan feature does exactly this. We use the RAHasher application provided by RetroAchievements to get the hash for your game and then use that to determine if achievements are supported or not.

Sound choppiness is almost always a video frame rate issue. The sound chops to keep up with the slower than intended frame rate. Typically newer TV's refresh rate defaults to 30hz when hooked into a Windows PC. Make sure the TV's game mode is on if it has one and then go to Windows and make sure the refresh rate is set to 60hz or higher.

Well if there isn't enough space on the disk you would need to remove some of the stuff already ON the disk to make room.

Yeah, just run the installer overtop. It won't mess with your data at all.

Could be because of the platform you provided and it's Scrape As value. Duke Nukem 1 & 2 are for MS-DOS not Windows and so if it isn't pointing to the right platform in the DB it could be the cause of your issues. Can work around by temporarily changing the platform in the Edit Game Window to MS-DOS then hitting the "Search for Metadata" and selecting the correct entry. Just make sure to change the platform back to the value you wanted before pressing OK to save your changes.

Personally not sure I didn't think they required it to get their API key, but it's been a long while since I got mine and I also DO have the authenticator tied to the account so I'm not the best to chime in on it.

It's an app on your phone that they use to 2FA the account. When it asks for it you open the Steam app on your device and input the authenticator code. Sometimes it will tell you "Some one from this location is trying to log in" and ask that you accept/decline the login. It's used to ensure your account is harder to steal.

You can actually have multiple parents. So when checking a different box you need to also manually uncheck the box that is checked for "Root". Unsure by your description if that was done or not.

That's driven by the app itself and isn't really something that can be changed via theming that I'm aware of.

We didn't change any logic that would affect how a game is launched so I'm not entirely sure how an update would have caused that. Are the games launching in the emulator and just not performing the way you'd expect, or is LaunchBox not able to launch the games in the emulator at all?

This could just mean the OS is having problems giving us the requested RAM because another program is using it, or because it's taking longer to move currently utilized RAM to the page file and so it can't give us the resources requested in a timely manner. I'd verify you don't have too many apps running alongside of LB when you see this error. Also consider increasing your page file and seeing if that helps your issue at all.

Regarding the Xinput that REALLY isn't needed ever if you don't want to, especially if the PC games are all via Steam. Just run Steam Input and it'll translate the keyboard to Xinput for you. You could also use an app like x360ce and create a virtual xbox controller using your key inputs and then tell the games to use that.

Not sure we changed any launch parameters for documents in the menu move but will verify and let you know.

I'd run the installer over your current build and see if that resolves. This error would indicate to me that something isn't being set correctly in the default theme's XAML files. This is typical if an install didn't go as planned or if you have those files set to Read-Only for some reason. First step would be to just run the installer into the same directory (make sure the installer isn't trying to install to a LaunchBox folder INSIDE of your LaunchBox folder). This has 0 risk of destroying any data and is safe to do. If that doesn't work go to your LaunchBox folder and make sure the LBThemes\Default folder properties has the Read-Only box empty (all white) and if not set it that way (with LaunchBox closed). If neither corrects let us know.

Sounds like this is a message you're seeing inside of RetroArch. Last I knew with some of the changes on RetroAchievements you need to actually update credentials on RetroAchievements (change your password) and then use the new password inside of RetroArch settings.

We don't explicitly tell any app to start on a specific screen, all that logic is driven by the game or emulator you are starting and so would need updating in that app's settings.

You can reach out to support to get a direct download link of the installer and then use that to install. Email support@unbrokensoftware.com

You have to be connected to your DB account for the scores to upload. You can do so by opening LaunchBox and going to Tools > Cloud >> Connect to LaunchBox Games Database

If that's the case you can look in your XML files and delete lines that say "<RetroAchievementsHash>COULDNTFILEHASH</RetroAchievementsHash>" (without quotes) and then run the scan again. That way you don't have to reimport and potentially lose data you put in your library.

Last I knew you can't get collections data from Steam's API. It's been a minute since I've looked though. Would be pretty interesting if we could create import collections as playlists. I don't really use the feature much and replicating the ones I have in LaunchBox is pretty strait forward (Only have ones for controller support levels).

We use the hash application to get the information regarding what the file hash is and so that isn't logic from us. First thing I'd do is review your platform and make sure if it's a custom name (like SNES for example) that the Scrape As value on the platform is properly set.

Images make it look like you are looking at a single row. There should be two error logs (rows) right next to each other, what does the other look like?

If you right click the log there should be something that says "Show Details" or something similar that brings up a new window with an error message. Can you do that and press Alt+Print Screen and then paste the image here?

Can you right click the log and show details and see if there a message in there? Also check the other log in the pair. This looks like the one with the least amount of data.

That log have any more details? What you're showing doesn't have any information on what the error is.
