The controller overlay isn’t controlled by LaunchBox - it comes from the emulator being launched. You’ll need to change it in that emulator’s settings. If you’re using RetroArch, open RetroArch directly and go to Settings > On-Screen Display > On-Screen Overlay > Overlay Preset, then select your preferred layout. You may need to update/download the overlay pack first and save a core or game override afterward. If you’re using a different emulator, let us know which one and we can provide the exact steps.

Do you have the same issue on the Windows app? Or is it only happening on Android?

Could you please go to Settings → Cloud Connection Settings, disconnect from the LaunchBox Games Database, and then sign in again using the same account? Disconnecting will not delete your local games, media, or game statistics. However, the next sync will be treated as an initial sync and may reconcile your local statistics with the cloud, so we recommend backing up your LaunchBox data folder first. Please do not clear the app’s storage or reinstall it. After signing in again, enable cloud sync and let us know whether it still immediately changes to Out of Sync.

This theme doesn't support Platform videos, only Game videos

It was already fixed in 1.23-beta-1 https://www.launchbox-app.com/android-about/change-log#:~:text=Fixed an issue with downloading media and logging in to EmuMovies

Did you install this theme?

Thanks for reporting this. This appears to happen after login succeeds, but the newly returned authentication token is rejected by the token-validation request. It is unlikely to be specific to the Retroid Pocket 5, and reinstalling probably will not resolve it. Please avoid clearing app data unless your LaunchBox data folder has been backed up. As a test, wait about 30 seconds after the error and choose Sync Now without signing in again, then let us know whether the status changes.

will be fixed in beta-2

Good suggestion. That makes sense, especially for VPN setups where network discovery may not find the server automatically. We’ll discuss this with the team as a possible improvement.

MAME and FinalBurn Neo are currently handled under the Arcade platform during import. The MAME/FinalBurn Neo logic is used for arcade metadata and emulator/core support, but the importer does not currently expose separate “MAME” or “FinalBurn Neo” categories.

LaunchBox for Android 1.23 Beta thread has opened:

Hi Everyone, A new beta round has begun for Android for version 1.23. The first beta is out and introduces a major RetroAchievements update, improvements to the Boxes Grid games view, better streaming video handling, and additional diagnostics to help us track down startup, launch, and playlist issues. While the changelog is fairly straightforward, we would really appreciate focused testing, especially around the new RetroAchievements features. ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Testers: Things to Focus On Please help us validate the following: RetroAchievements: Log in from the new RetroAchievements main menu section, confirm your profile, stats, recent activity, recently played games, and leaderboard links load correctly. Test supported games to confirm achievement summaries appear on game details pages. Game Achievements Page: Open achievement sets for supported games and test Grid and List views, controller navigation, portrait and landscape layouts, sorting, searching, grouping, and filters such as earned, locked, missable, progression, and win condition achievements. Emulator Credentials: Test configuring RetroAchievements credentials for supported emulators, especially RetroArch, and confirm settings save and work after restarting the app. Achievement Notifications: Launch supported games through supported emulators, earn achievements if possible, then return to LaunchBox and confirm newly earned achievements are detected and shown correctly. Boxes Grid View: Test the Boxes Grid games view with large libraries. Please check scrolling speed, responsiveness, image fit options, spacing options, controller navigation, and touch navigation. Startup, Launch, and Playlist Diagnostics: If you run into slow startup, slow game launches, playlist save issues, missing playlist games, or playlist deletion problems, please report them.

It's a known issue that started happening in the latest version. Will be fixed in the next beta that will be published soon 😉

Send it to my email (andriy@unbrokensoftware.com), and I'll check it when I have time

For both these issues, we will add extra logs in 1.23-beta-2 (or maybe 1.23-beta-1) for a better understanding of what's going on.
