Hi Dream, this is possible if the same images happen to exist on both EmuMovies and the LaunchBox Games Database. It's also possible to download duplicates by editing a game and telling it to re-download images that already exist.

Sorry for that solid. There was a short period in there where we were testing before going live with the new forums.

We do plan to do an Amiga tutorial, but unfortunately I have some work to do to make Amiga work well in LaunchBox first (and also some research to do because I've never actually used Amiga...yet lol). Supposedly Amiga imports aren't really possible right now.

Thanks for the detailed report here, @Sepulchre. I haven't been able to consistently replicate it so it's been a hard one to fix. I think I've only ever seen it happen once on my various machines. Are you using background videos? Does it matter? @DOS76, how were you able to replicate it? How long did it take before it showed up for you? I wasn't aware of the genre error, actually. I've added that to my shortlist as well.

We can indeed. These forums support Tapatalk, I just have to get it installed. So we should have that soon.

Awesome.

Agreed, my friend, it's easy to do. Thanks for the note.

Except I probably just pissed off Gabe Newell.

Hi orac, if you do create some videos it would be awesome if you could share them with us in the new Downloads section! MP4 formats are usually the best, yes. The general rule of thumb is if it plays in VLC and Windows Media Player, it'll play just fine in LaunchBox and Big Box.

Hey guys, I gotta run away for a few but I wanted to let you guys know that I got Steam trailer video downloads working. Going to try and put out the beta with it tonight.

Hi guys, currently working on a way to change out that animated gif. Should have that soon.

Hi Dreamwarrior, edit your games and check to see if there is a video listed in the Other tab. Video playback is a premium feature, though; not sure if you're premium. You also have to enable viewing the videos in the LaunchBox game details sidebar in the game details options.

Hi Dreamwarrior, I know this is somewhat confusing, but the "default" emulator is not necessarily the emulator that is used for your games. The default emulator really only applies to when you're adding new games. If you change the default emulator, your games will still have the old emulator assigned to them. So yes, the bulk edit wizard is the way to change the emulator for a group of games. I believe we have a feature request ticket that would prompt you to update your games when you change the default emulator, though, to remove this confusion. Thanks!

I don't understand why but I've had a ton of issues with the latest versions of Retroarch too. Performance issues, crashes, and everything else. My best recommendation would be to go back to a previous version if the latest versions aren't working. In my case, I had to go pretty far back in order to fix some of the issues I was seeing, something like 1.2.2 I think.

Sadly we need to only allow uploads to the downloads section from the original author of the media, or at least with permissions from the original author. We can't have people angry with us over stolen media, so as much as I'd like to make it all open, we need to make sure we have permissions before media is uploaded.

Makes sense Dreamwarrior. To be honest the uninstaller is mostly pointless because LaunchBox doesn't touch anything outside of its own folder anyways. But I see what you're getting at.

Hi @flavad99, I'm trying to get that error fixed but unfortunately I haven't been able to replicate it. Are you still seeing it? What view are you seeing it with and when does it happen?

Yeah, there's a lot of sad things going on in the US lately (not to hate on the US, sad things happen everywhere). Agreed.

Sure, I can understand that. There is certainly a difference between looking out for safety (trying to predict if someone is going to be a problem) and judging people. It's definitely possible for us to love someone while at the same time doing our best to assess whether they're dangerous and protecting ourselves. Knowing you, Clive, I've definitely seen your character as one of empathy and love; I don't think I've ever seen you judge anyone before.

Hi Cid, I just added two new properties to the filters view models: Notes and Details. So you should be able to add text blocks like this: <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Notes}" /> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Details}" /> This will be out in a beta later today. Let me know if it's not working after the beta is out.

Thanks, Clive. We are definitely predisposed to judgement, but I choose to take an approach that disagrees heavily with the majority of the world on this matter. If I were to be truly judged for my past, I would not survive; I've made mistakes that would condemn me to prison or worse. I choose to do my absolute best to replace all judgement in my life with love, rather than to play a hypocrite and judge people for things when I've probably done worse. I appreciate the discussion, though. We are likely to have some very different viewpoints because I base my ideologies on the teachings of Christ rather than the teachings of the world.

Awesome, great to hear.

“Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. For you will be treated as you treat others. The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged. “And why worry about a speck in your friend’s eye when you have a log in your own? How can you think of saying to your friend, ‘Let me help you get rid of that speck in your eye,’ when you can’t see past the log in your own eye? Hypocrite! First get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend’s eye. Matthew 7: 1-5 (NLT) Today I'm reminded that judgement sucks. I hate being judged and usually do a good job not judging others, but not always. I pray that I can be humble and refrain from judging anyone for their life situation, their actions, or their words.
