I've also tried reverting to an older version (13.8), but the same Object reference not set to an instance of an object error occurs but with this stack trace:
at (Object , Game )
at ThreadParser.AssetRole(Object , Game value, ThreadParser )
at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Windows.BigBox.ViewModels.GamesViewModelBase.<>c__DisplayClass192_0.SearchAdapter()

at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Windows.Data.DataManager.<>c__DisplayClass170_0.WriteLiteralToken()
at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.RunInternal(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state)
Is there anyone who can give me any clue on what this might be? -
I browse for a few minutes then I get an error, it happens every time i use BigBox. This never used to happen now I can't use bigbox at all

the solution was turning on Threaded video within RA. it's not perfect but 100% better than it was and once I'm in my Arcade cab with led monitor I should be golden!
I have a NUC running retroarch through launchbox and this solved my audio glitches / distorted sound for one emulator but not others.
The solution that solved it altogether was checking my frame rate in windows under DIsplay > Advanced Display Settings and changing the hz from 30 to 60. -
Didn't get an answer so I whipped up a script that does the consolidation:
-
Platform Consolidation Script
View File
I had a lot of duplicate MS-DOS games, and when I tried to use the "Consolidate roms for MS-DOS" tool, it would just say "The selected platform is not an emulated ROM-based platform." But I had so many duplicates that not consolidating them was not an option. So I wrote a script that imitates what the tool did for my PlayStation library.
It seemed to work for me; now I only see one entry per game and I have the option of "additional apps" for the others.
Usage instructions:
- Download Python: https://www.python.org/downloads/
- Double click on the script or run it via command line `python path/to/file`
- Enter a full path to the platform you wish to consolidate
- Note: the platform should not have been consolidated already (i.e., it should have no additional apps for any game)
- Platform XML files are located at LaunchBox\Data\Platforms
- Script will generate a file called {file name}-consolidated; backup your previous XML file and then rename the new file to take its place
- Make sure to remove all other XML files for the newly consolidated platform from the Data\Platforms folder or Launchbox may use one of those old/undesired files
Here is the original question I asked on the forums about solving this:

I have a lot of duplicate MS-DOS games, and when I try to use the "Consolidate roms for MS-DOS" tool, it says "The selected platform is not an emulated ROM-based platform."
I've tested it out and I can modify the XML file to match how the other XML files handle duplicates (since other platforms automatically consolidated dupes for me). Which raises the question, surely there is some way to do this for MS-DOS in the UI that I'm missing?
I was thinking about writing a script to modify the XML for me and consolidate entries, but I wanted to check with the community first to make sure there isn't already a canonical solution.
Anyone got any ideas how to consolidate all these duplicate MS-DOS games?

The problem occurs on multiple platforms, so it's not a problem with any one platform.
This problem is resolved for me by reverting to 13.2. I've tried out 13.8 and 13.11, both of which error frequently. I've toggled back and forth between 13.11 and 13.2, and the results are that 13.11 errors every time within minutes while 13.2 seems to never get the error.
