Yeah, just file transfer the ROMs some where and then run the ROM Import in LaunchBox and point it to where you moved the ROMs to.

Can't sort by star rating, but you can just use the GamesDB to look at the games in our DB and their star rating and then pick out the games based on that.

Retro808 is correct in that we have a minimum file check of 4000. This is because that importer imports all games in that MAME Arcade set, regardless of what files you have in your folder. If you're removing ROMs before importing you'd want to use the standard ROM importer and it'd let you.

Looks like your emulator doesn't accept 7z files and is telling you it's not sure what you gave it. Xemu for example reads ISO files, not 7z.

We have the feature in LaunchBox, unsure why it wasn't done in Big Box at the same time. That feature is quite a bit before my time here. The feature wouldn't be super simple in that we have to make it work in every view configuration Big Box has (which is quite a few). Overall though I don't think it's made the cut just because the feature in LaunchBox was viewed by a large number of users as one of those "not very useful" features and so didn't get pushed forward into Big Box landscape. Not saying this thread isn't the first time I've heard this request, but it doesn't come up very often and as I shown above you have other ways to randomly land on a game making the additional dev time seem pretty wasteful compared to what else we could get done.

I don't believe we have a way to make the content grid's size be customizable on a per platform level at the moment. At the top of this web page there is a "Help & Support" link. I'd click that and then click "Request a Feature" and submit a feature request and we could look into the possibility of adding it at some point.

As long as the other machine has the runtimes (Direct X and I believe our web implementation takes .NET Core 3.1 still) LaunchBox can just be copied over. If nothing else when putting the files on your removable storage, put an LB installer in it as well. Then run the installer, close LB, and then copy the files you're moving over on top of the install you just did.

In the GOG Import tool when you get to the games list you can change the value in Platform to whatever you want. If you right click the row you have several options to make it quicker to set multiple rows to whatever platform you want them to import to.

Drag the songs to LB, in the import wizard that appears press "None of the Above" and then run through the import. I'd probably make the Artist the Platform. Then after that it's just about how you want to navigate it, as well as manually finding metadata/media for the items you've imported.

I can play PS1 and under on my Anbernic handheld that cost me less than 100USD. It doesn't take much to emulate those systems. I'd just look into a BeeLink mini-PC or something similar. If you're more comfortable building the PC I'd assume those specs would work, though I admit hardware isn't my strong suit so I'd wait for some one else to chime in potentially before making any decisions.

Select "View Platforms" from the system menu. Sounds like Discovery Center is your default view. You could make platform view your default and then you'd need to manually enter the Discovery view via the system menu or a hotkey

Our apologies for the outage, we're looking into what is going on. It should be up again while we continue to investigate.

The icon by back is a controller binding related image (in my build shows "B" button for example) which WOULD be in that folder. If you referring to the bit in the lower left that reads "< System View" that's a bit different and is a SVG path (found on line 2326) that would need swapped out for another path or an image.

Do you have the option on that makes it required to HOLD the back button to get to System View? Try to press and hold the back key and after something like 3-5s it should go to the System Menu (if that's the cause for what you're seeing)

Drag the EXE to LB, in the wizard that appears select "None of the Above" and go through the import wizard like you would doing anything else.

If you want to use default just copy the default folder to a new folder and name it what you want and then swap out the images in \\LaunchBox\Themes\{New Theme Folder}\Images\Controller to what you want.

Not enough information to really give the best response. What systems you are trying to emulate will inform what system you need to consider purchasing/building. Without this information some one at best can point you in the direction of a small form factor PC like a Beelink or NUC.

Correct response is, "OOOOooooh Yeah!"

Can use the filter, turn on the option to put favorites at the top of the games lists, or create a favorites auto-pop playlist that you can either access via Playlists view, put in your category hierarchy and then access in Platform Category, or you can edit the playlist to display in the platforms list and then select it from there.

In LaunchBox go to the playlists side bar filter, locate the playlist. Right click it and select Edit. On that first tab in the bottom of the form is a check box that reads something along the lines of "Show this with platforms". Check that and press ok and you're good to go.

You'd have to reach out to support@unbrokensoftware.com. Getting to the bottom of this requires personal information that shouldn't be shared on the forums. They'll need to know your current user name and the email address tied to your account.

If you want the game to appear in your Playstation 2 platform just edit the game and change the platform to "Sony Playstation 2" (without quotes). If you want to keep it in the same platform but be scraped as the PS2 game do the following: Select the game and then press CTRL+E to bring up the Edit Game window Cut (CTRL+X) the value in platform, then enter "Sony Playstation 2" (without quotes) into that same place In the upper right click the "Search for Metadata" button and the select the record for that game Go back to the platform field and paste the original value back in

Select all the games in a platform and then in Tools > File Management there is an option to change the ROM path for the ROMs. Select the root folder they are in and it'll repoint the games to the correct file.

There is no way to auto-add all games in our DB to LaunchBox. It'd be a pretty easy plugin if you wanted to take a crack at either making one or convincing a plugin dev here on the forums to do so.

I'd verify you're having the same issue in Default, we had one other report in recent days of this behavior with another theme of mine. Both themes use pretty similar grid code, I haven't had time to see if I have a binding that may not be updating as fast as possible. I personally have never ran into this issue, but I admit most of the time I'm using LaunchBox it's for editing my library metadata more so than actually launching the game.
