    Oh wow. I completely misread your original post. The days conference calls have my train taxed. You would likely need to have a custom GameMarqueeView for the theme you are using. 

    The default logic for game level marquees does not have a "catch all" for the platform. It typically goes Marquee Video > Marquee Image > Clear Logo/Boxes & Background. I am not at home right now to really look at it, but I think that is the priorities.

    To do what you want I believe would require some code editing to make it fallback to an image that covers the platform as a whole. 

    It's all good, I appreciated not getting yelled at that "this question has been asked before" hahaha. 

    I had a feeling it was going to get a bit complicated to do but I'd like to figure out how to do it. If you come across anything to point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. I will start looking into the coding aspect.

    Marquees are per game. Always have been. 

    Just need to place all marquee images in the proper folder. In your \Images\[Platform Name]\ folder should be a Marquees folder. All images go there named as the game is named in your LB or after the rom name. 

    Thanks for the quick reply, I appreciate it!

    What would I do (if it's even possible) if I didn't want different marquees for each game, rather one custom marquee that runs for every game? In this case the custom marquee would be controller info I created for each console.

  3. Hello,

    I created custom controller info marquees that I want to be displayed on my second monitor once I launch a game from Big box. The custom marquee's are per console, not game.

    I am struggling to figure out how to do this. I have changed image priorities, refreshed caches, use default folder structure, etc. From what I can tell, Big Box wants to search for the individual game images. Obviously I could have a ton of copies of the custom images and rename them to each game but that doesn't seem very practical. So here I am..

    Hopefully I am missing something simple or maybe it can't be done and I can just give up and stop banging my head against the wall.  Thanks for the help!
