Hi, just wondering if there's a workaround fit this? For instance I have added Super Nintendo roms but I've changed the roms, added some and removed some. Is there a way I can remove just this platform from Android LaunchBox and re add the roms for this platform? So remove all images, videos, memory of these roms and start a fresh but keep all the other platforms I've already added?

I've just installed the Beta version of LaunchBox and now I see a pop up saying that MAME isn't supported on Network drives? Is this something your hoping to have sorted out in the next couple of months or shall I import locally?

Thanks, in that case it's working correctly. It's just the change log item made me think it was separate to the Android settings: Network Drive Support: Import games directly from your local network drive. When launching a game, they will download locally Local Game Indicator: Games stored on your local network arew easily identified by a cloud icon for all default views New Filter Option: Quickly filter your game library to view only local or non-local games Customizable Screen Timeout: Control your screen timeout independently of Android's system settings Expanded Emulator Support: Added full support for CEMU and Lime3DS emulators Framework Overhaul: Upgraded to the latest MAUI framework for improved performance and stability Fixed Play Time Sync: Resolved an issue that could cause inaccurate play time tracking Android Game Parsing Fix: Addressed an Android game parsing issue on startup for certain Android based VR headset

Today Retroarch has added CloudSync support for game saves: https://www.libretro.com/index.php/retroarch-1-20-0-release/ Has anyone tried this yet and got it syncing?

Thanks Faeran, I'm seeing very different favorited games on my Android device compared to my Windows device that are both signed into the same LaunchBox account. I don't think any favorited games synced across to my Android device and the ones I'm seeing are just ones that I manually favorited last week. The Sync Status: In Sync and clicking Sync Now doesn't change anything. I'm using the same set of Roms for both systems.

Yeah, very true 😂😂

Hi all, my question is if I favourite a game on the LaunchBox Android app, should it show as a favourite in my Collections on the LB Database? https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/collection/manage If so the heart (Favourite) isn't showing on my games that i've favourited and not syncing between my signed in account: I'm signed into the same account on both the browser and Android app. The reason why I first noticed this is that my favourites didn't transfer across to my latest installation of LaunchBox. I'm trying to find out where I can see what's synced according to this pop-up: Thank you.

That makes perfect sense thanks, I like the Q & A sections where you answer the communities questions and reveal additional development insights and plans for what's coming next. I do try and watch the live streams on Twitch when I can but it's not always convenient with pesky things like work and kids 😁

Thanks AstroBob, just tried this out. Tried Atari Lynx, and Nintendo Wii and they both crashed on me. I tried both Europe and North America and they both crashed. I also tried with just the option selected to download from EmuMovies and it also crashed.

Hi, I know in the past that the Launchbox Streams used to be uploaded to YouTube but that doesn't seem to have happened with the most recent ones. Is this something they've said would happen? The YouTube streams seem to have a lot more views. I personally would like to watch them on YouTube rather than Twitch as I have a YouTube Premium account so I don't get adverts every five minutes.

Hi again, Again, I'm not sure if it's already on the roadmap, but I'd really like to see a themed icon for the Launchbox app for Android. I like having LaunchBox on my first page and it sticks out as I like my apps to be themed. Themed Icon support for Android was introduced in Android 13: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/13/features Thank you for your consideration.

Hi all, Not sure if this is already in your app roadmap, but I would find it useful for NAS drive users to have an option for just 'Download' to go with the 'Download and Play' I believe that the Network Share option only works in LaunchBox for when you're on the same WiFi network, so before I go out and I know I want to do some gaming when out, I go through the games I might want to play. It would be nice to do this without having to close down whatever Emulator opens up with every game. Thank you.

OS: Android 15 QPR2 Beta Launchbox Version: 1.16 When I downloaded the artwork for my games, it downloaded the Japanese box art for Diddy's Kong Quest when I selected Europe. When I try to change the artwork in the LaunchBox app to the European version through edit media from the Launchbox Database, it says it's downloading it but it doesn't change it. Select game, then the 'Edit Media' option. The 'Box Image' shows as 'Exists' Click it. Choose 'Browse for New Games Database Image' Select the image I want from LaunchBox database. Choose 'Use as Box - Front Image' Screen pops up saying 'Please wait while downloading and applying the image...' It then cycles back to the screen showing all the images but the old image hasn't been replaced. The images below show the workflow:

OS: Android 15 QPR2 Beta Launchbox Version: 1.16 I've checked my EmuMovies account and it looks like everything is okay on there, LifeTime membership with no Warnings. Signed in successfully on Launchbox but whenever I try to download media including videos on the latest version of Launchbox it crashes the app. It always used to work really well. When I unselect the option for downloading videos it seems to work fine so I think it's an issue with EmuMovies and the link to Launchbox.

Hi Ravippe, Did you comment on the right post? This is for streaming YouTube videos, not local MP4 files.

OS: Android 15 QPR2 Beta Launchbox Version: 1.16 When I set my screen timeout on my phone to 15 seconds, and the Launchbox timeout settings to 1 hour. The screen turns off in Launchbox in 15 seconds. The setting in Launchbox is supposed to override the Android one right? Not sure if this is because I'm on a beta version of Android or not.

Brilliant, that worked. Thank you very much 👍

Here is the file in a test folder hosted in my NAS Drive.

I'm having issues getting MAME Arcade platforms zip files, to load from my NAS Drive (Nvidia Shield 2017 Android TV) in Launchbox on my Pixel 8 Pro running Android the QPR2 Beta update. I've added all my other roms fine eg; SNES, Gameboy, Megadrive ect. But Launchbox crashes when I try to add even one MAME rom. They load fine when the files are loaded locally but not from my NAS drive. This is the guide I was following: Launchbox Tutorial Whenever I try to add a Zipped MAME rom, whether it's 1,000's or just one. The application crashes. This happens even when I chose the default options in the Importer or change the options. I also posted this on Reddit and Astro Bob has been looking into this but I thought I'd also post here so I can include some pictures: Reddit I'm not sure if this is because of the Android Beta software I'm running, or if this is a bug with Launchbox.

I'm having issues getting the YouTube videos to play for each game (Not the locally downloaded video from EmuMovies, as they do work) in Launchbox on my Pixel 8 Pro running Android the QPR2 Beta update. This is the guide I was following: Launchbox Tutorial These are the steps that I followed: Menu/Options/Video Streaming - Enable Video Streaming Optimize Library Go to a game and it should be playing a video (but doesn't) Text does appear that it's downloading a video even though I've chosen to stream the videos but nothing plays. I'm not sure if this is because of the Android Beta software I'm running, or if this is a bug with Launchbox.

I'm having issues getting the Platform theme videos to play in Launchbox on my Pixel 8 Pro running Android the QPR2 Beta update. This is the guide I was following: Launchbox Tutorial And these are the steps I followed: From platforms view, click the three dots in the top right and change view to Wheel with details (Also should work with text with details view.) Download Theme Videos from the same three dots menu Select to prioritize 'Colourful HD by Viking', Do you want to replace existing videos as well? 'Download All' Wait a few seconds for all to download In landscape you should see videos for each platform playing in the background After doing all this, no background image shows, and no videos. I'm not sure if this is because of the Android Beta software I'm running, or if this is a bug with Launchbox.

Amazing update, like my own personal Steam library for my retro games! Just wondering if it could technically be possible in the future for the network drive support feature to add Google Drive storage as an option?

Hello all, hopefully a quick question: In my Nintendo Game Boy folder I have the following files: Super Mario Land (World) (patched).zip Super Mario Land (World) (Rev 1).zip They are rightly categorised Super Mario Land and when I right click I get the option which I want to play. How should I be titling my patched files so that they always get chosen when I double click to play? Thanks.

I want to have all my ROMs in one place to save duplicating and so I can keep everything up to date. I have a HDD attached to my Nvidia shield and Launchbox on my Windows laptop can access my ROMs fine. Is there anyway Launchbox and RetroArch can access the ROMs from my Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra phone?

Thanks, the refresh fixed it.
