Any suggestions? I am looking to consolidate all my games into one folder so I can then move them to a new hdd

Is there anyway within Launchbox to move all files for a certain platform? For some reason not all my mame files moved from their initial folder to the Launchbox folder. I dont want to just copy and move everything, as some of them are ones I told Launchbox to not include (I am trying to identify which ones are the ones I said not to use so I can delete them to clear up HDD space). Within Launchbox is there a 'move games to speficied location'? I know there is the ability to tell it that they moved to a new folder, but again, I dont want to do that, because it wont let me identify which ones were the removed MAME roms

Posted a message on the thread with no response, wasn't sure if someone could identify what it was here maybe

I am having this weird box over every game, regardless of console in BigBox - https://www.dropbox.com/s/lajkcq3dggsd6yv/weird box.jpg?dl=0 Anyone know how to remove it?

yeah I'm not sure what the problem is exactly but it is 100% related to the DAC. Disabling the specific driver related to it under the HID was what solved the problem. Looking for the HID-compliant consumer control device For those who find this thread in the future and are looking for how I figured it out which one to disable, the easiest thing is to click on properties for the driver and it should show you something along the lines of USB input. It could be named something different. But what I did was I had eight devices in total under the human interface devices category that were HIDs like the post that I linked above says. Then what I did was I viewed the properties of each one and at least was able to tell which ones were connected to other devices like my keyboard and mouse. Then when I did was one by one disabled the other devices and then I would unplug the DAC and see if the disabled driver was still connected. when I found the one that would disconnect when I unplugged the DAC then I knew that that was the correct one. As soon as I disabled that HID it went from 3 minutes of loading to literally 5 seconds

Even with Not having the DAC set as the audio device, it still takes forever to load. As soon as I disconnect, it fires right up. Any suggestions? UPDATE: The previous linked post had a second page i missed. Disabling the HID solved it!

So I diagnose the problem but it's a weird one, it's apparently an issue with the DAC that I use. I'm going to try to check the drivers and see if there's something I can do to fix that but that's clearly the problem, after disconnecting that it booted up right away and it was easily to get in and out of the settings as many times as I wanted Apparently others have had this issue - I have a FIIO E17k, tried repairing the driver, gonna see if that works

Damn that's what i was worried about. Might try boring in safe mode to see if there is any change. I doubt this is it but is there any possibility that it has to do something with the fact that I initially installed it on one hard drive then move the installation over to another folder? I actually did rerun the installer and then just copy all the files however it was having this lag effect even before the second install when it was just on a regular hard drive instead of an SSD. It's literally 2 minutes every single time that this is happening

Sorry I just started using big box and lunch box and have about 8,000 games loaded in. However the load time is kind of ridiculous especially in big box. Once I'm actually inside the program I'm able to move pretty swiftly, but specifically starting and changing settings such as moving from the 'manage themes' page back to the main settings or even just starting it up it takes about 2 minutes for it to load. I have a significantly overpowered rig (rtx 3080, ryzen 3700, 32gb of ram, installed on a ssd) but everything is still going really slow. Anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it

No I did it console by console. If something has been added into Launchbox already, like is in the games folder, and I rename it there, how do I get Launchbox to rescan it?

Hey y'all, I'm very new to using Launchbox, but I feel like I'm doing something wrong. I'm trying to import my library of around 7k different games, and about 1200 of them Launchbox is not finding matches for. Some if I manually edit the name it will find it when searching again, but going through all 1200 is a lot. Possibly an external tool is needed for better or different naming conventions, currently most files are named how they were when I got them. I'm newer to building a ROM library in general, so I don't know if it's something I'm doing wrong or what. And with the image processing for Launchbox taking like 15 hours to process through, and still have 1/6 missing metadata, i feel like I'm driving myself nuts. Any help on how to make matching easier would be appreciated.
