SentaiBrad

I removed Windows Defender for this reason, it is TOO picky.

Oh sorry, yea I think it is. I was posting the screenshot of the settings for anyone interested in seeing them.

Yea I was gonna say, her and I can't play games at the same time if they're from my account. When I start playing a game it even tells her she can not access my games and needs to request to play so it can kick me off.

DOS76 said Almost as much of a mess as MESS? Something like that. That must have come from someone more wise than myself ;)

Actually, right after my post @CriticalCid pointed out http://mamedev.emulab.it/clrmamepro/#downloads That will go a long long long way in to helping. Grabbing the latest batch and running that ever so often might be my answer.

Quite honestly.......... I don't. I cry in the corner for MAME, it is a jungle...

I do agree with Derek a bit here, they money is for convenience. You're also paying for the server bandwidth as well. If you'd rather not pay, which is totally fine, a bit of sleuthing on the users part will be needed.

They're not named properly: https://www.youtube.com/user/MameVideoSnaps/videos But that is a good list of videos. I use Jdownloader 2 and 4k Video Downloader myself for videos. Copy the channel link and paste the link in to one of these programs and it will download all available video for you, that is a solution. Here's another resource: https://mega.nz/#F!J5RySYAQ!B1GAqifkEGXd38FlFgsjEg Jdownloader 2 will also download all of these very very easily. This one will take a bit of sleuthing and I am unsure if JD2 or 4k video downloader will help make the downloads easier. DownThemAll might be if you set the filter to search for just video: http://gamesdbase.com/all_videos.aspx I know it's not as simple as you wanted it to be, but they do exist out there.

Ah, I see what you mean; and I'm sorry, I honestly didn't even look at the sites I just searched snaps. Personally, I make money off of YouTube creating gaming content myself, but that I think is a step above just taking a video of something then trying to sell it. xD I try to put a lot of entertainment in to it. I'll take another look to see if I can't find something myself, but video wise.

Huh... ok that's strange. Can you not change them in Big Box? I don't know, I don't use a controller to navigate the UI's.

Software and Movies aren't. So I can't share RPG Maker MV to her, she needs to be on my account.

Is this a real Xbox 360 pad or the Gamestop 3rd party 360 pad? Controllers assign numbers to each button, so if you use another controller but the system thinks you're using a 360 pad (assuming that it even works) you press a button and it does something other than what you expected. It assumes X number for Y button for the 360 pad and that is changed for the 3rd party controller.

I have almost 2k Steam games, and my Wife is setup for mine. So she logs in from her PC, she see's all of her games then there is a subsection that says "SentaiBrad's Games" and it lists everything that is illegible for the sharing program.

Multiple installs of LB certainly works, but I am unsure if the Steam API will import games that are shared through the Family Share function or if it just finds games that are purchased on that account.

You could have two installs of LaunchBox. https://i.imgur.com/1pBoo63.png Edit: I made a diagram but the formatting of the forums took that away, so here's a screenshot of the diagram. xD Have two separate installs in the same folder. Have your install be the main installation of LB with all of the games and setup a platform for Applications. In there manually add LaunchBox as a "game" and have that pointing towards your Son's install. In there just have it import Steam games with his URL. You can even technically use the same LaunchBox Premium license on both if you have one and if you'd like to.

No there isn't, we also haven't had the need to do this yet. We use the Steam API though so there might be a solution, or import the games with a different Steam Username. The games that are shared should still show up. I haven't tried scanning Steam games with LB on my wife's PC, but it should theoretically see all the games I've shared with her, then it should launch like normal when she does it on her PC. If that solution doesn't work please feel free to create a feature request on our BitBucket page for Steam Family Sharing support. At the top of the page click "Send Feedback". It can properly get tracked and we can try to get something working. I can't promise this is something we can easily fix within the Steam API though.

You don't agree to paying for someone else's hard work? Either way, no torrents. After a quick bing search I found 3 websites, easily. http://www.progettosnaps.net/ http://www.mamechannel.it/pages/snaps.php http://emumovies.com/forums/files/file/521-mame-gameplay-snap-pack/

Oh sorry, I didn't mean to be confusing. Yea, Manage Platforms is going to be your best friend if you want to add custom systems.

I thought it was fairly clear. Steam is easy, we have a special importer for it and it should find all of your Steam games. Origin and Uplay we technically don't have an importer for but the Windows Games importer should work just fine. If anything is missed you can add anything you want to LaunchBox with the Add button in the bottom right hand corner.

DOS76 said Did you originally have those games entered under SNES? If so then you will need to go into your LaunchBox folder and go to Images\SNES (or whatever you have it named) there you will see all of your Image files from that platform you can either go into the individual folders and find the SFC games and then paste them in your new Super Famicom folder or you can just copy all the folders and paste them under SFC yeah it will take up extra space because you will have all the SNES games images to but that will be much faster than sorting through each game individually. I'm not 100% on this but I think if you run the clean up images option under tools it may delete the SNES data from the SFC folder and the SFC images from the SNES folder since they won't have any entries under that platform. Yea, running the images cleaning tool will delete games if they previously had metadata. If you did move a game that did have data before that doesn't have it now, yea Derek is correct, the link in the LaunchBox XML has been severed. Copying over the effected games images to the new system folder should solve the problem, but running the metadata downloader may also fix this. Again, you'll run in to issues that I covered in my previous post though.

So we don't differentiate between the different variations of names. So if you add a system LaunchBox or BigBox doesn't know about it won't have artwork for it. Super Nintendo (SNES) is the platform it is expecting, not Super Famicom. As well, like I said, if you search up a game as Super Famicom it will have problems grabbing art work; At least in our current state with only 3 Metadata locations that aren't complete. Seiken Densetsu is a Super Famicom game, but if artwork is to be found found for it it will be under Super Nintendo. LaunchBox may find a match based on name alone and will then change the platform from SF to SNES, but not every game does that. My DOS games will frequently change platforms to PC from MS-DOS because technically the platform it is expecting is PC. We sadly can't change TheGamesDB, and it is what we are based off of currently and even EmuMovies is off. We are seriously hoping that MobyGames can be our metadata knight in shining armor.

LaunchBox doesn't automatically know when something is different on the server, you still need to tell LaunchBox to download metadata. There is a box when you do the update from the menu that says to download metadata even if something exists, and it will do so for only the things you check. That said, we don't download video from EmuMovies, that is something users need to manually check and I don't think it will be something we integrate. LaunchBox will import based on the qualifiers you set. So if you have a game named Tetris with the platform Super Famicom, it will search these. If you changed that to Super Nintendo it might find more matches, but this is based on our scrapers. In TheGamesDB Famicom doesn't necessarily mean anything, because the category is labeled Super Nintendo, even for Japanese games. LB should know alternate names though, and if the user sets it up this way for GamesDB LaunchBox knows and will take the game and put it under Super Nintendo and grab the information even if it was looking for Super Famicom. Wikipedia should be the same way and so should EmuMovies. EmuMovies is a bit more strict however, so we'll need to do some testing. The platforms should stay one name ideally, and we do have a list of defaults that we suggest users use otherwise scraping will be off. In this case it is Super Nintendo, and if it wont grab Super Famicom artwork then this is certainly something we can fix in the future.

Oh no, I didn't think you were, It was just a separate thought I was having because you said Frontend on Android. :P

Yea we do want to branch out to Linux and maybe Mac one day, but Android may be a place we don't go, but who knows.
