It is Inception, and anyone who gets it to work I do applaud.

Yea that is certainly a bug. If a game doesn't get found it is more than likely a name difference, but regardless if no metadata is found it should still import anyways and let you deal with it later 1 by 1 or all at once in the metadata downloader. I'm gonna pass this on to Jason and let him know about this, hopefully we can get that fixed quickly in a beta update really soon. Edit: Actually, he just let me know this will be fixed in the next version.

No, I totally understand the appeal of RocketLauncher, and I understand that there is a lot more to it. My point of view is from users coming over and asking for specific features in LaunchBox that they are missing. Primarily it has been stuff like archive decompression or getting their metadata to work. With the direction LaunchBox is going though I do feel like LaunchBox is quickly becoming the alternative to everything. It does most things well or better than other front ends and gets updated quickly. We have plans to make sure LaunchBox starts getting updated even faster too, so even some of the features that most users ask for when they start browsing our forums will be there, then what? If LaunchBox has feature parody, at least for the features our users ask the most for, then why does it make sense to use another layer that is redundant? Until that point, no I totally understand and get that people have put time in to RocketLauncher, I've put time like they have in to LaunchBox. If they want to keep using RocketLauncher despite the progress made on LaunchBox then I've already stated that I stil think that is totally fine. These are not two pieces of software that compliment each other though, because there is a lot of redundancy. So at the end of the day my thought process was, does LaunchBox do better the features it has in common with RocketLauncher? My answer was wasn't 100% of the time, but yea a majority better. Will Jason be adding in the features most requested by RL users so that they don't have to try and duct tape two pieces of software together? Yes, it's just gonna take some time.

I don't have much experience launching games through Additional Apps, but I don't think it should be any different. Have you tried booting Doom normally through LaunchBox? Just a regular single default entry. Launching it separately can tell us if there is a chink in the method you're using and a command line or something is off, or if it is a LaunchBox bug in additional apps maybe. To help narrow down bugs in additional apps, do other games launch with this method away from Doom?

Video's vary wildly in resolution, especially if you go for old commercials or older material like I did. It's not even scaling in the side bar yet, let alone scaling in the background? I just think that would look bad... but it is still an awesome idea for newer, bigger resolution video though. At the top of the forums, "Report Issue / Feedback", you're more then welcome to add that to the BitBucket list if you like, it's easier for Jason to track these things. I don't think he's gonna lose this request because he monitors this thread a lot, but I want users to get in to the habit of using it.

I don't think this one is all that easy like the rest, however it is a good idea. If it doesn't already exist on our BitBucket, page feel free to add it to the list. It will get tracked a lot better for Jason and users can vote for it. At the top 'Report Issue / Feedback" takes you to this page.

It doesn't work the same at all. There are no plugins to deal with, or add, or download. You just have RetroArch, the cores, and the settings. If you are having trouble set things up I've covered PS1 and RetroArch in our YouTube Tutorial series. That link is in my signature.

Yes, there is a giant thread about trying to get controllers to work with a Steam Link, which in this case would more or less be the same situation. It works besides the odd controller issues.

Except, sadly, that searching Google images would be wildly inaccurate.

It is on the list to deal with multiple disked or disced games in the future.

No worries, the forums are still places to discuss changes users think might be useful but Jason is 1 man and there are a lot of requests and bugs to fix. The BitBucket page helps him track issues and requests, and users can vote on things too. So if something gets voted on a lot it'll probably get added sooner rather than later.

At the top of the page is a "Report Issue / Feedback" Button. This will lead to our BitBucket page and you are more than welcome to add this to the list if it doesn't already exist.

Ah yes, now I see what you mean. Yea, it is certainly on the list.

I'm confused by what you meant by "Yet!".

DOS76 said Yet! o,O;; ?

Any system or Region is poor based on the websites we use. However, MobyGames should be coming and has A LOT more. Add GiantBomb on top of the other sites we have and we should be able to cover most games, hopefully.

Unless the emulator supports playing from compressed file formats remember that LB wont uncompress the game on the fly to play.

Moby Games has a decent cover of some older PC's, including Amiga, so even if nothing ever comes of this I'm sure we can get decent cover from Moby Games.

Yea this is why I asked you to try the beta, there were a lot of fixes made to EmuMovies. Tools -> Options -> Updates (Under General). Check Update at Startup and Update to Beta Releases.

We send out a weekly Newsletter more or less that has pertinent information inside. For now it usually contains anything going on with the site, with LaunchBox, our YouTube channel or anything else we think our users should know about. Hopefully we can find ways to extend what is inside so that we keep sending only 1 a week too so that some users who don't like clutter don't get e-mails like they do from BitBucket and the Forums.

How super specific... wow. :P

I love RetroArch, but there are a few select cores I don't use on purpose, this just happens to be one of em.

This is actually a case where I don't use RetroArch and instead I use Desmume Standalone or Desmume X432R instead. I will say that what you may expect based on the standalone in RetroArch can be wildly different. If you already changed this save setting elsewhere in Core Options, then it is a setting for that core not the rest of them. If it was a setting you changed outside of core options then look in your other setting menu's.

Well the art could have been there from before or yea, downloaded but the game didn't get imported. That is strange. I'll see if Jason has any input based on this.

DOS is very much a wild west. You can load custom conf files per game and have that pointing towards a custom mapper file. However, unless the game can handle your controller for the most part DOS games are best on a keyboard and mouse I believe.
