[Bigbox has no sound]

Hello, my start up video, scrolling through games, or preview videos no longer play any sounds.  I have verified the videos play outside of Bigbox, and I checked that they play under the Metadata in Launchbox. The games play fine, all sounds work outside of Bigbox, I verified all sound settings were not set to O, and I tried to switch between VLC and WIndows Media player with no change.

I have updated from 13.5 to the Bata with no change.

Updated all drivers on my PC.

 

I downloaded a second instance of Launchbox and Bigbox, and the sound works.  

Does anyone have any other ideas for me to try, or files to replace?

Thank You.

[Auto Hotkey Scripts]

The script is the issue on model 2. It launches fine without the script, and if I open x360ce before, it works with no issues.

I have set the script up in all my emulators needed, the only one that gives me a problem is Sega Model 2.  The game launches in the background, starts playing music, but its stuck on the test screen.  I had this issue trying the older script too. I have attached a video of it. 

 

Run, C:\Users\Gerry\Desktop\X360CE\X360CE.exe
WinWait, ahk_exe X360CE.exe
WinMinimize

Esc::
{
WinClose, ahk_exe X360CE.exe
WinClose, ahk_exe emulator.exe
}

Try:

Run, C:\Users\Gerry\Desktop\X360CE\X360CE.exe
WinWait, ahk_exe X360CE.exe
WinMinimize

$Esc::
{
WinClose, ahk_exe X360CE.exe
WinClose, ahk_exe Yuzu.exe
}

 

This worked, other than on esc, it would close X360CE every other time.  I removed the $ and its working great! Thank You AI Overlord and JoeViking for your help with this!

A while back I did exactly the same as you, using X360ce for my Thrustmaster wheel. And I did experience the same problem. If I recall correctly the reason was that X360ce does not like to be launched minimized.  For me, when X360ce was launched minimized it technically did what it was supposed to do, but the GUI froze and was hard to close. I could not find any other solution than to not launch X360ce minimized.

*Edit*

My solution was to launch X360ce as normal (windowed), but when it is fully loaded (after 5 seconds), minimize X360ce to the taskbar using: WinMinimize, ahk_exe x360ce.exe. (I do have to add that I have a separate LaunchBox setup just for playing racing games  with my Thrustmaster wheel and first start X360ce then LaunchBox / BigBox from an AutoHotKey script.)

Ok so we have some progress..  This script, starts up fine, but it doesnt minimize X360CE, I need to still click off of it, onto my game.  Then on exit, X360CE closes with no issues...  I did verify that ",,min " is whats causing X360CE to not respond. 

Thank You guys for your help so far, this has been occupying my last few nights. 

Currently this is the script I have in there...   

Run, "C:\Users\Gerry\Desktop\X360CE\X360CE.exe"
WinMinimize, ahk_exe x360ce.exe
Esc::
{
    WinClose, ahk_exe X360CE.exe
    WinClose, ahk_exe Yuzu.exe
}

Good.  Don't do that.  

So the only line in your Running Script is   Run, "c:\blah blah\x360CE.exe",,Min?    Nothing else?   

[correct] And x360ce loads and you controller does what it's supposed to do while playing a game?

[correct]  And since you no longer have the exit routine in the running script, when you exit the game, the emulator closes as it should but x360ce is "freezing"?

Can you give a little more detail about "freezing"?  Just X360ce?  The whole computer?  If not the whole computer, what happens if your start another game using the Yuzu emu?

Yes this is my running script.  Run, "C:\Users\Gerry\Desktop\X360CE\X360CE.exe",,Min

Yes it does

No issues with the emulator closing.  

Its just X360CE, it says not responding, and I have to end the task.  I have tried another Yuzu game, and tried the script with another emulator and I am having  issues.

Process, Close, X360CE.exe

Same issue.  I also removed the closing part of the script, and its still freezing up on ESC.  So the opening part seems to be causing the issue on close.  I did try to run X360CE as admin and without admin and it didnt make a difference.

I assume this in your Running Script section of the emulator.  Adding a couple of commas and "Min" should start x360ce minimized. 

Normally you could add the WinClose yuzu after the WinWait.  That won't work here because as soon as the emulator (yuzu) exits, this script is abandoned.  WinClose would never be reached.  So we need to add the Escape sequence to 1st close x360ce, and then yuzu.

Run, "C:\Users\Gerry\Desktop\X360CE\X360CE.exe",,Min

Esc::
{
	WinClose, ahk_exe X360CE.exe
	WinClose, ahk_exe Yuzu.exe
}

If X360CE needs to be fully loaded before yuzu, you may need to try something different.  As in, if this doesn't work, you'll need to go to plan "B".  

It is opening x360ce in the background, but on esc, its causing x360ce to not respond.  Any ideas on that?

Thank you Joeviking! Yes this is my running script, and I don’t believe x360ce needs to be loaded first, I will try this tonight. Thanks again!

Hello, I have tried some scripts I found on here but I am still trying to tweak them.

I am using X360CE for my G29 wheel.  For certain emulators that I need X360,  I would like it to load in the background while my emulator loads or minimized.  Its currently windowed on top of my emulator so I need to click off it with my mouse to play.  Also I would like it to close when I close the emulator.

 

Example of my script for Yuzu.

Run, "C:\Users\Gerry\Desktop\X360CE\X360CE.exe"
Process, Wait, Yuzu.exe
while winExist("ahk_exe Yuzu.exe")
    sleep 700

Hello, did you end up working on this? I am in the same boat for PS3 and Switch. I will check out the FPT I haven’t used it before. Hopefully it has more media.
