  1. I had just restarted the computer and launched BigBox, after it came up this message appeared before any media started playing, then it seemed to be unable to access the platform categories menu, which I use as the main/home screen, until I switched themes (I was using a combination of two themes and switched to just unified refried to fix that particular issue).

  2. Specified Visual is already a child of another Visual or the root of a CompositionTarget.

    Alright, 11.15 is out now. Apparently all we needed to do was recompile and it seems that it no longer trips Microsoft Defender. Just bad luck with that false positive I guess (but what else is new).

    If you're unable to auto-update to 11.15, you can manually download it here:

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/wsflw0p0iu8g3o4/LaunchBox-11.15-Setup.exe?dl=0

    Once downloaded, you can just manually install it over top of your existing LaunchBox folder, and it will keep all your games and settings. Just be sure to install it to the LaunchBox folder, like this:

    And not a LaunchBox folder inside of the LaunchBox folder like this:

    Thanks all; my apologies for the trouble. Sometimes we're blindsided with false positives like this and unfortunately there's really nothing we can do to improve it. It's just the nature of software development on Windows these days.

    Oh, one last note: as with many of the previous releases, we are still tripping a false positive with Symantec/Norton. This has been unavoidable for us unfortunately. Symantec/Norton seems to be the worst of the anti-virus industry, spitting out more false positives than most other providers.

    Thank you very much for the rapid response as usual, when I saw your statement that it was a false positive I allowed the DLL through defender, but was even more grateful to see you discovered the issue with defender and fixed the problem in such a timely manner. I definitely have not been disappointed with the program and the work you all do especially in responding to issues etc, have not regretted buying that lifetime license one bit.

    I have Nahimic service but im a little confused as to what to do. i have a 11.6 build and i disabled the service and its still glitching. Did I do something wrong? I have restarted my computer and its back again so I wonder if I didnt really disable it. I wont touch it till someone helps so I don't mess anything up.

    When you disabled it did you ensure to stop the service first and then prevent it's start up under the properties tab in the windows services menu as shown in these screens?

    Sure, sorry to have you screwing with all of this. Wish I had a system that used it so that I could figure it out.

    Ok so with that Nahimic service disabled everything appears to now be working correctly on version 11.6, I have restarted Big Box a few times and everything is looking great. It now definitely appears as if that Nahimic service was causing the issue and frankly I can't understand why it's on the computer to begin with when Realtek has it's own service as well and I have never installed or even had a Nahimic program preloaded on this PC before but the service was still apparently packed into my system anyway. I stopped the service and disabled it's start up so if anything changes I will update here, but for now everything is looking fantastic once again, thanks for the time and suggestions to everyone involved.

    Not a huge deal, I'm happy to help troubleshoot this problem however I can, launchbox is fantastic software that basically reignited my love of emulation and even inspired me to make a cocktail arcade/virtual pinball table, and has allowed me to have a way to make it much more accessible for my son to play the vast library of classics.

    Okay, sorry to hear. Hopefully this poorly-developed software will be fixed here at some point. Apparently it even causes issues with Microsoft Office. You probably don't actually need it; I believe it's some kind of visual overlay in games that they put in that causes the issue, not the actual drivers.

    Yea that's my thoughts as well the problem is ridding myself of this demonic piece of coding... Best I can figure is to disable to service but hopefully that means I don't have to do so everytime I turn my computer on, might experiment with that and try 11.6 again to see if that fixes it.

    Worst case scenario, you can delete the LaunchBox\Updates folder. Based on previous experiences in this thread, we don't think it really has to do with video drivers, though we're not certain.

    Okay that worked to get be back to 11.2 without the auto updating occuring and everything is looking normal again now, thank you. Suppose I will wait until a windows or .net core update and try again on a newer version.

  9. Well I am on that core now but when I tried that particular download link and installed the app it caused some major conflicts such as not recognizing keys on my keyboard etc. But going to the dotnet site myself and downloading 3.1.8 from the link there worked just fine. The problem is that I don't have any of those update options checked yet when I install 11.2 over my launchbox built it opens fine in 11.2 until I go to switch to big box and then it thinks I confirmed installing the download. Just a note even if I had the update boxes check it usually asks me if I want to update launchbox and if I pick no it doesn't. However trying to downgrade to 11.2 launches launchbox in 11.2 fine soon as I switch to big box it think I told it to update.

     

    I have no doubts the issue can be found and it was extra frustrated because a recent game ready driver update causes big box on 11.6 to appear correctly with no graphical glitches. But after updating some media they are back to how it was before game ready driver update was installed again. 

  10. I am having a similar graphical issues I have seen others posting about on the forums ever since the update to 11.4, I have a GeForce GTX 1060 6gb card, latest game ready driver installed, I have tried reinstalling net core and ensuring windows is up to date but nothing seems to be correcting this issue. When first updated to 11.6 big box ran once with no graphical issues and the videos were proper sizes, however after doing a media scrape and starting big box again all the graphical glitches have returned. I'd like to revert back to 11.2 but every time I do so when I switch from launchbox to big box it automatically updates to 11.6 despite all update option being unchecked.

    It's a driver incompatibility issue specifically with the newer .NET Core version. Sadly, there's not much we can do to fix it as it's either a Microsoft bug or a driver bug. Feel free to downgrade to 11.2, but hopefully it'll be fixed with a new driver or a Windows update shortly. Just out of curiosity though, what model is your video card?

  12. I am also having this same graphical issue ever since the update to 11.4 on big box, none of the following releases have changed anything nor has recent NVIDIA drivers released, nor doing fresh installs of latest .NET core and framework. I was just curious if I can downgrade by running the setup exe or must I uninstall the old version of launchbox, I'm hoping to avoid that as I'd hate to lose the current organization and settings of my games.
