lol fair enough. The number of times I've done that is already staggering and I likely have quite a bit more before I learn my lesson lol

Glad you were able to solve it. Yeah anytime you see a binding that points to something ending in "View" then what is being displayed isn't in that file and potentially can be found in a different file in that folder.

I'll have to check the code tomorrow when I'm back on my dev machine. I can't remember if theme overrides are higher priority than your personal one. If so this could be related to the theme you are using. Some themes have their own (I believe Big Default for example does this)

@XvXPhoenix 13.22 Beta 2 may have some code in it that resolves the issue. Once you see it's released on the forums would be it be possible for you to do the following: Open LaunchBox Go to Tools menu and create a backup In LaunchBox open options and go to the updates section and enable beta downloads Check for updates (I believe in tools, may be in help not at a computer with LB installed) Let it update to beta 2 (again, once out) and see if you have the issue still there Omni settings depends on the view in use in Steamy. Do you use Image View or List View? Image view you'd select Image View in LB (or there is a selector on the right side of the theme, you want the left most button), then in the second grouping click the one that has two horizontal bars in it. That view should be essentially the same as steamy image view List View you'd want to press the 3rd button on the left grouping and the two vert lines in the second. Then drag the separator that is between the list and the details view (it's invisible but there) to the left until the list turns into a Steamy-esque list and you should have Steamy List view. It works better if you hide the Side Panel (no worries a new drop down appears so you can still use it)

Been a bulk edit wizard in app for at least as long as I've been on the project. Select multiple games (can hold control while clicking on them) and then press CTRL+E to open the edit window and change all the selected games at once.

The unresponsive part usually means something is being done on the same CPU thread as the UI and so the UI's "refresh" can't be called and so OS see's this as a hung process. Generally speaking the app will return to normal function once the process completes, it just doesn't play nice until then. Things to look for to improve the time it takes to do this: Make sure neither location are over network which can greatly increase time to move files, make sure both locations are on stable/working drives (bad sectors no good for anyone), make sure you don't have file sync software running on either location, make sure you don't have AV running against LB (Windows firewall should be fine, third party stuff can get pretty iffy pretty quickly)

Logos and Icons I believe were the only platform related that has moved at this time.

Easiest way to use a single location for everything is to drop logos in \\LaunchBox\Images\Media Packs\Overrides\Platform Clear Logos. It only supports a single file per entity but if you dump the art there (or point the symlinks) to it correctly it'll work like it always had and then you can manage the logos per platform, category, and playlist via the Add/Edit window (they show as Clear Logo (Override))

Files in question are in \\LaunchBox\Themes\{Theme Name}\Views. The file in question is one of the Wheel Game views. You'd look for a line with a FlowImage that is passed the platform logo and then change it's opacity to 1. To change the style of all elements in the view you can add a default control style to the resources at the top of the file. Googling "WPF override default style" should get ya pretty close to what you want/need. Feel free to ask more specific questions on the forums once you get that far.

Use the "Games Missing Media" sidebar, let it scan artwork, select games missing box front, select all the games and then go to Tools > File Management, select bottom option. Export/Move the files to a new folder

Anything worth saving is found in your Data folder. If you have backups enabled in LaunchBox it'll automatically back up that folder into a single archive and stick it in the Backups folder. It'll keep the last 10 backups at startup and shutdown for easy roll back. You can also manually create a backup file via the LaunchBox interface and store that somewhere you want as well.

You'd have to add a FlowImage control where that text is, set the ImageType to "Clear Logos". You should be able to find the syntax for it by looking in the default theme (or really any theme with a logo displayed there). I didn't in this theme to simply save vertical space in the details view so I could use that space to view metadata which I tend to care more about.

I know what you're reporting IS a thing we saw in some themes when we made the change but thought we had resolved in all of them by the time the release went out, so it's entirely possible. I just have to track down the exact settings required to make it trip up. Could you post up a screen shot of your Game Details option page? The one that shows which elements are turned off/on? I'll mimic it and see if that produces what you're seeing.

If the files aren't listed in import it's almost always because you already have them imported and just aren't seeing them because they are hidden, or imported to a platform they shouldn't be. First step is to look in View > Show/Hide and make sure nothing is being auto-hidden via that menu. If those are all off and you still can't find it you can run the Audit tool to attempt to find what game imported is pointed to the file in question (list view can likely be used as well)

Hmm... I just tried this on my setup and unfortunately not seeing what you are. What LB version are you using?

Yeah, I fully realize you're more knowledgeable in any attempt to utilize RL and it's differences. I've not ever used the software. Just stating that cold starting again from LB has become pretty straight forward and much faster than it was in the past when you are I first started our builds. You start getting into the weeds and needing custom command lines/emulators for every game/app sorta thing and I can definitely admit now you're looking at QUITE a bit more work lol

The DB file you download from in-app is generated once per day and like 2A EST (or somewhere close to that). Anything approved since then won't be in the file. You also need to make sure LB has the latest local file and you can force that download in the Tools > Download menu. The logic in Add/Edit Game is a bit looser and can show you several results where the bulk tool does not. I'd attempt to go to a single game you know should be in that file and use the search tool in the Edit Game window and see if you can find it that way for starts. It may help shake out why you're not seeing anything. If it still doesn't work provide a few links to the games that aren't working for you and we can do a deeper dive into it.

You may need to change directory settings in the emulator for the emulator to be portable. I believe some of the paths may not by default point to the folder the emulator it sat in and is instead of some shared windows directory. If you repoint that to an internal folder that path should remain the same making that possible.

A large majority of them at this point we can download for you automatically and instantly set it up well enough to at least get into a game, as well as inform you if you're missing BIOS files for said emulators. If you don't download media and it takes you more than an hour to import your entire ROM library I'd be pretty surprised. Media downloads can take a while depending on the size of the setup. For example your 250k build I'd not even want to guess how long it'd take to redo that media grab...

Our YouTube channel has several tutorials for LaunchBox. A large majority of them cover specific systems. I personally would suggest just run the app and organically experiment in it. Start with the Tools menu and run an import and potential the Download Media tool and just go with what sounds right at the time and tweak as you need. We strive to make LB the easiest frontend to get up and going. If you run into any stumbling blocks the community is really good about helping each other out. If you run into any hurdles you think we could probably handle better while you're going through the process there is a "Request a Feature" link in the "Help & Support" tab at the top of this page. Let us know how we can improve the app for newcomers.

Omni can be set up to use the same layout as Steamy (or extremely similar). That being said I know a lot of people still utilize this theme so I can try and get it up and running again.

Can confirm, EM team reached out and informed us they found the cause and have corrected.

Announcement on page top. Here the thread, locking this one.

EmuMovies functionality in LaunchBox is currently not working. This is due to an outage related to EmuMovies API and not something we have direct control over. We will let you know when the functionality is restored.
