    Is anyone having issues with EmuMovies using v12.10.3 or is it on Emu side? I started getting tons of errors after updating to v12.10.3.

    UPDATED: I noticed it seems to be mostly the video snaps, get 100's of these "timed out" errors:

    Yup, having the same issue.

  2. A while back I built my arcade cabinet, and due to the fact that I did not have enough inputs on the keyboard encoder that I am using, I designed the pause button with diodes so that it registers an UP and DOWN keypress at the same exact time (see: https://tigerheli.mameworld.info/encoder/pausekey.htm). Is there any way to make Launchbox/Bigbox recognize this input to activate the pause screen?

    Same with me, and sometimes you'll even get gaps too, and even when you scroll up it does kinda the same thing, and hard to say if these games that already had their Clear Logo already in the BB-Cache folder or not since I have tons to go through. I also have to wait forever in hopes they all load up correctly, but after waiting forever is when it seems no problem until you come back later to that same Platform and have to wait again on those Clear Logos they haven't been seen to load up. I also found that leaving the Game List and coming back when they haven't loaded up does make them show up quicker, but it's like once you scroll down some to ones not already seen is when you come across blanks again and have to back out and in again, or just wait forever for the Clear Logos to appear

    I also forgot to mention that sometimes when you change the Transitions you are sometimes stuck for a while on "Please Wait", and then you get where Backgrounds for games down the Game List go from showing the Background to then the next game on the list having the Background coming up as black and then the next game on the list showing the Background in a pattern.

    I've also experienced moments where you can't see a video clip in the screenshot part of BigBox, but you can totally hear it though. It rarely happens, but I guess when you change it to certain Transitions is when that happens too.

    Delete the files in that cache folder and it should be fixed. Just give it a few minutes for everything to repopulate, especially if you have a rather large library.

  4. Looks like the issue went away permanently. The clear logos now take seconds to populate after the initial 20 or so immediately display. I've opened Big Box multiple times now to test. Probably some cache corruption that was rectified by removing the old files.

    If you sit still do they populate? Can you scroll up and see some logos, but not all? If so do they ones that weren't there reappear after a few seconds or no? Trying to see if the cache is stopping entirely or just taking longer than it should. Also could you look in \\LaunchBox\Logs\ and grab a log when you are seeing that behavior and PM it to me so I can take a look, see if there anything in there that could give us a clue as to what is going on.

    They eventually did populate, after I deleted all of the clear logos out of that cache folder. I sent the logs to you anyway, as there is something else going on in them. Let me know what you find. Thanks!

    Could I get you to clear the clear logos from that folder and tell me if it makes the situation better or worse for you?

    I deleted all of the files in that folder and the issue is the same. It populates the first 20 or 21 logos but when I scroll through my list the rest of the logos do not appear.

  7. What I did was get an old arcade cabinet that was no working and gutted it. I got it for free. There are many out there that you can do that with. You'd get a much higher quality cabinet that way as well. I then built a new control panel out of wood and retrofitted it in place of the old control panel. Looks great, especially with custom artwork applied.

  8. Yes, this issue is happening to me as well. I was just going to post about it! :)

    This issue occurs when I have sound files named per game in the Launchbox\Music\Arcade folder and have the Prioritize Soundtrack Music checkbox checked in Sounds settings. Sound from the videos will not play at all if there is no corresponding file for the particular game in the folder mentioned above. I'd like the video sound to play but only if there is no corresponding sound file for that particular game.
