[PS4, PS5, and XBOX ONE Wheels?]

Having so many cross platform games on Steam, I'd love to setup (pseudo) systems for PS4, PS5, and XBOX One platforms. Does anyone here have any of these wheels setup? If so, how would you map the games and set that up?

[CEMU Exit Command Line]

CEMU uses Alt-F4 to close in standalone mode.  So this is what I use and this works on current versions of CEMU and LB:

In the CEMU Emulator Tab  "Exit AutoHotkey Script" put this in:

Send !{f4}   

The above will work in the Pause Screen exit command as well as whatever controller combination you set up in LB for exit game.  The "Process Close" AHKs given in the past have been found to not always be reliable.  Plus, the Alt-F4 is what CEMU expects as normal exit anyway. 

Optional:  If you also want to use the keyboard Escape key to exit then optionally add this in the "Running AutoHotkey Script" tab:

ESC::
{   
    SetTitleMatchMode, 2
    WinWaitActive, Cemu
    Send !{f4}               
}

You shouldn't need to run CEMU in admin mode for either of these or really any reason I can think of at least for BB/LB usage.

Sorry for the necro bump but...hopefully this will help someone else. After hours of searching and trying different scripts, this is the one that FINALLY solved my issue. Much appreciated!

[Where to find Media for newer platforms?]

Appreciate it guys. I was talking more like video snaps, clear logos, and game themes for systems like Switch, Xbox and Xbox 360.

[Where to find Media for newer platforms?]

I'm finding a lot of newer platforms are missing videos, images, clear logo's, etc. Where are you guys finding media for systems like PS3, Xbox/Xbox 360 and Switch?

In Launchbox, Options/Video Priorities then just put them in the order you want to prioritize them.

I checked this and it looks like theme videos were already prioritized...but when I click into Arcade platform, it just shows the video theme in the little arcade screen instead of showing the full-screen video theme.

[16/9 Mame Theme videos in Unified]

I asked this in another thread but couldn't find a clear answer. I've seen some LB builds on Youtube that show Mame game themes in 16/9. I have an extensive collection of Mame games with themes but unfortunately, the themes are all in 4/3 resulting in them being "stretched" when I try to run in Unified. 

I've searched on Emumovies (I have a premium acct) but can't find many 16/9 Mame game themes.

Is there a 16/9 Mame game theme set floating around or...is there a way to somehow have a boarder in Unified (much like a bezel), where the 4/3 themes would display properly?

 

Btw, new to LB and absolutely loving it!

[Platforms and Playlists all on one wheel?]

Great, I'll change that, thank you.

[Platforms and Playlists all on one wheel?]

Do you happen to know if there is a way to have video themes take preference over video snaps on any particular platform? So for example, if I was scrolling through Mame games, and there was a video theme of a game, that would show instead of the normal arcade machine with video snap. I'm using Unified theme btw.

[Platforms and Playlists all on one wheel?]

Awesome! Thank you so much. 

[Platforms and Playlists all on one wheel?]

Is it possible to have all systems, including playlists, on a single wheel, rather than having things broken down into Computer, Consoles and Handhelds?

Hi Darrin

I don’t know how to get it to be 4:3 but to be honest with you, I like it wide screen to fill the whole screen. I know a lot of people in the community don’t like that as it stretches the image, but for me personally I don’t care as long as it fits the screen.

In regards of the theme being in full screen if you go onto the options of big box, you can cycle through the views and you can change it so it just does the theme with the video playing in the middle just like it would for Mame games.

here is a link for what I think you’re looking for

Bummer, your link is not coming through:( I'd love to see because I've spent a considerable amount of time playing with views and so far have been unable to achieve what I'm looking for. But...I'm pretty sure it's achieveable (that even a word):-)

The theme you are using would need to be edited. What theme is it?

I'm using Unified redux.

[Is there any way to turn the crawl at the bottom of the screen off?]

I've searched and searched and played with, and tinkered, but for the life of me I can't find a way to turn the crawl off on the bottom of the screen. I'd like to turn off the date and also game info if possible too. Very distracting imo.

[How to configure Unified to look identical to Hyperspin]

Also, do you know by chance if there is any way to have a game theme in place of a game trailer? For example, when you're scrolling through the NES section, when you get up to a game with a video theme, rather than showing the theme in the little screen, it actually shows the theme fullscreen. Is that possible?

[How to configure Unified to look identical to Hyperspin]

Thank you. LB definitely has a lot of features and I'm still getting used to all the options. I'm loving the Unified theme so far. One of my only issues is with the game themes. Since most of the game themes I have are in 4:3, I'd love to have them display in 4:3. Unfortunately Unified stretches them and they look all weird and funky.

[Is there an Arcade/Mame game video theme pack in 16x9?]

I have a video theme set for many of my Mame games/roms, but unfortunately, they are in 4x3. I'm using Unified theme and the theme is set for 16x9 by default so it stretches the video themes and they look weird. Is there an arcade pack of video game themes available in 16x9 or will I have to essentially try to build this game by game?

[How to configure Unified to look identical to Hyperspin]

I'm brandy new to LB/BB but so far...REALLY digging it! I've been using Hyperspin for many years and have recently moved over to Hyperspin attract. My question is...how can I get the Unified theme to look identical to Hyperspin? I've placed my platform videos in the proper folders. What I'm having trouble with is getting various emulators to display the same way they do in Hyperspin. 

For example, I'm able to add video game themes for the Arcade set which work great. But moving to consoles, it shows either a full screen image or video, rather than say a Gamecube theme with video snaps playing in the background, and cover and cd art. I'm essentially looking to build this to look identical to Hyperspin if possible. Thanks in advance.
