I'd just edit the XAML file to work the way you want and then you don't have to touch the vids. Getting the element to stretch the way you want really wouldn't take much work at all.
-
If the data files in the collections are the same then yes the cache folder can be synced as well. If the data files are different then no you cannot since the cache images are linked by the internal game id and not by title.
-
I don't have any plans on making those available to the interface as I'm not sure I see the point, but I could be convinced otherwise if you have a use case that makes sense.
-
Only the games application path is scanned, we do not hash alternative apps at this time.
-
What's the name of your theme? Also are you in the correct view?
-
What I was talking about was in the XAML of the theme. I misunderstood and thought you said you built a theme to do what you were wanting
-
Not sure what control you're using to display the video but pretty sure all of our controls have a "StretchVideo" property you can set to true. This will make the vid stretch to fill the space the control takes up.
-
I believe the game always has the same ID regardless of how many (or if any) cheevo's are tied to it yet so the rescan wouldn't be needed.
-
We aren't doing the hashing of these files at all. RetroAchievements hasher application does it. If their app can't hash your file you'd have to wait for them to update the app. They just pushed out a new version and it'll be including in the next release, but in my CHD files where the v1.4 was failing v1.5 still fails as well (though it gives a reason now, and does so much faster)
-
Are you seeing any errors? I've never heard of anyone having this issue, and given how the code works the situation doesn't make a ton of sense to me. Can you check in your \\LaunchBox\Core folder and ensure there is no lingering Themes folder in there and remove it if there is?
-
Yeah, each view is only made for a single wheel (FlowControl), adding more than one won't work.
-
Can always just delete the Themes folder and then run the installer over the directory again, then place the theme files in the Theme folder that gets put there by the installer
-
If you're inside the FlowContext can simply do this: <TextBlock Text="{Binding DataContext, Path=Title}"/>
-
I'd empty your temp files. Could be that the app is just having issues downloading it. Drive being full could also cause issues with the download.
-
Really your PS2 collection should be in CHD format. Gains the space savings of being archived but can be loaded far quicker by the emulator without the need to extract the entire file before playing.
-
SteamGridDB has a lot of media for newer games that can be used. They don't tend to have exact cover images, but would usually have background/logo images available.
-
No LaunchBox doesn't store any strongly defined port information like that to determine that the games are the same across multiple platforms.
-
Items are marked as duplicate if any of the following are true: The rom file is imported more than once The game has the same Games Database ID assigned as another game The game has the same title and platform values as another game in your collection
-
It does for 7z files
-
PS2 takes an exceptionally long time and is prone to errors I've noticed (their app crashes hashing some PS2 games). That being said the process will never scan something that's already been scanned so you won't lose progress and can safely close it.
-
Yeah, in this beta update I assigned a diff value to the underlying image used in the custom control. I'll see if I can move that to the parent control so that it's easier to overwrite in custom themes should the need arise
-
Believe they changed the bezel syntax in MAME recently and so the deprecated syntax no longer works and needs moved to the new one. I don't have any details to that change readily available to point you to how to do that.
-
You can put any WPF control in the FlowTemplate so yes, using a textbox is entirely possible
-
That folder is safe to delete in it's entirety once LaunchBox has closed and you don't see the process running in Task Manager
-
Bezels are downloaded to temp because we can't download single bezels. The ones you need are then moved to the appropriate folder for your emulator (and renamed where required). The temp folder should delete itself when you close LaunchBox.
