[TV Series Scraper]

Website didn't want to let me leave a review yesterday. Looks like today I can. It's just like I said in my comment, this works great for pulling in all of the tedious metadata associated with importing TV into LaunchBox and it MASSIVELY speeds up the process. I'm about to go on a bit of a marathon run of importing shows now that I have this tool to use. I really appreciate this being shared with the community and I'm excited to see other folks taking an interest in hosting other media within LaunchBox/BigBox.

This is SO nice. Grabbed my APIs and it works just as advertised. What more could you want?

[Neon Deluxe Arcade - 16:9 (Big Box Theme)]

I'm always tinkering with my LaunchBox installation and creating custom categories, mainly for Movies and TV shows to sit alongside my game library. I'm always searching for what I think the end result should look like when I finally have all of this media under one roof. So I'll every so often mess with other themes or play around in the community theme creator to edit and tweak existing works a little bit, but I always come back around to using Neon Deluxe Arcade,

Something about the presentation here just trips all the right "nostalgia" buttons for me. Not to mention its very flexible in terms of presentation. The low light renderings and screen effects applied across period correct televisions displaying game videos, or arcade cabinets and their marquees is just so well done. Or if you'd rather make the game art itself and the videos accompanying that the main focus then there are views to support that as well, letting the platform take a back seat. With LaunchBox's ability to save different views depending on the platform this theme can really let you cater to one aesthetic or another depending on what platform you are trying to feature.

This theme also hands down makes the most use of all of the different artworks that LaunchBox can populate for your games. Which I think is another point that draws me back into it. There just seems to be more here to take in and I think I begin to find others lacking as a result. Of course its all personal preference at the end of the day, but for me (at least so far) this is it. The theme really puts across its atmosphere in a convincing way and I can feel like this is a spot I'd want to squirrel away all of my stuff into. Like the mancave arcade my house doesn't have the room for.

Thanks!
