  1. Hey there, Which version of Launchbox are you using, and which version of the plugin?
  2. thanks joe, ill give it a try. (sorry i missed you reply, think I need to turn on forum notifications.)
  3. Really? 0.5.1 should definitely still show up as its based on the same version as 0.4.1. you absolutely certain you using 0.5.1 and not version 1.0.0??
  4. Hi there, thanks for the response! however, I'm not sure I fully understand. Sorry to be a noob at this, and apologies for my lack of knowledge in this regard. So IGame.GetNextVideoFilePath gives a string to the lines of "Videos\<platform>\<gamename>-01", I use yt-dlp to dowload the videos, and it requires an output path. If I give it this, it will create a folder Videos\<platform>\<gamename>-01 from its root (which in this case is the plugins folder). How do I get from there to the actual video folder without specifying the full path? Sorry if my explanation is poor.
  5. Version 0.5.1 fixed that and should work on launchbox 13.18. also make sure your default media player is VLC in launchbox settings.
  6. Hi there, I have a plugin (Vidsnap Scraper) that downloads game snaps and places them in the Videos directory. It generally works well, but I’ve encountered a user who has their LaunchBox installation on an external drive and is experiencing some issues. To determine the LaunchBox path, I use Reflection and then append "\Videos\filename.ext" as follows: private string launchBoxDirectory = Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly()?.Location) ?? string.Empty; This usually results in a path like: C:\Users\Username\LaunchBox\Core\Videos\gamename.mp4 However, I’ve noticed that the Videos folder inside Core is actually a link to the Videos folder in the main LaunchBox directory. This link seems to be created when LaunchBox starts and removed when it closes. Interestingly, on an older thumb drive, LaunchBox doesn’t create a link but instead generates a physical folder, whereas on another thumb drive, it works correctly. I suspect this is causing issues with my plugin. Would removing \Core from the LaunchBox directory path be a viable solution, or could this introduce potential issues in the future? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
  7. Correct, this is what I meant by the above. You can use version 0.5.1 of the plugin for LB13.18 and older, which is identical in functionality to V1.0.0 of the plugin. You can grab it from the changelog.
  8. @DJWESTY Hi all, I've updated the plugin for compatibility with LB 13.19-beta3 and hopefully the official LB 13.19 when it is released as well. It works on my side; if you have a chance, please test it on your side as well. Unfortunately, I do believe that it will no longer work on older versions; however, this is identical in functionality to version 0.5.1, which still runs .NetFrameWork 4.7.2 and should work on older versions. regards, maikeru
  9. @KRI$85 @darreldearth I've uploaded a new version, I hope this one works for you. @DJWESTY This version has not yet been updated for LB13.19 beta, but I will look into that next.
  10. Thanks for the heads up. i'll look into it.
  11. Interesting. Thanks. Unfortunately, I don't think there's a way around it otherwise. I will need to fix it in the next update.
  12. try downloading ffmpeg ,(checking the trim videos check box should give an option to download it, albeit an older version). then try high quality again. it works for me, but im curious to know if this works for others as well.
  13. I think, ffmeg may be more integral than I previously thought. you can try downloading ffmpeg and placing it in the plugin folder where yt-dlp is. I think this will combine the video and audio streams for higher quality videos. you can either download it manually, ytdlp have custom versions, or check the trim videos checkbox for an older version, both i think will work. Im still planning an updated version of vidsnap scraper but I think the new version may require ffmpeg as default.
  14. Interesting, I'll have a loook at this. I overlooked the audio as my desktop has no audio besides headphones. Some videos I tested have audio and some don't. I need to do some reading on yt-dlp formats, LB supported codec and maybe ffmeg conversion as well.
