Thanks @Pyrometheous , I don't know why the video playback is so bad for some people, for me it works with the WMP engine ok. This was my first stab at making a theme and I used alot of the code from exciting themes and mashed it together @CriticalCid helped alot. I'm not sure if one of the other.... more experienced theme makers might know if there's some bug in the code... @Grila @CriticalCid @eatkinola @Maddoc1007 @viking @vsilvalopes @faeran @SNAK3ATER or anyone I missed.
This is the point that I find out it needs to be redone from the ground up (which is a possibility I know)
Oh and 'Rincewind' is also my fav character from discworld, so is 'Death' but I think death is a bit on the morbid side so I went with the first option
@Rincewind Downloaded your theme to see what was wrong with the videos BUT Videos are working as expected in all views with windows media player the only view that no videos are working in is the horizontal wheel 1 looking at the code i couldn't find your video transitions:TransitionPresenter hence no videos. Also i tried to see this view in Visual studio but no go as you will see from the screenshot as your coverfactory is broken even though the code i went through it and it seems fine so i dont know where it is broke i think you will have to ask Jason on this and maybe he will look at the theme for you. So the only view that people should be having problems with is the Horizontal wheel 1 all the other views platform and games are working perfect.

@salyangel Just uploaded one for Mame name as you have your platform named.
-
@Sumbale Thank you.
-
@DOS76 Will see what i can do as am not seeing it on my machine are you using vlc or wmp?
-
@DOS76 Will have a look and try fix in the next few days thanks for checking.
-
@DOS76 Which View? So i can take a look at in in the next few days.
-
@DOS76 was that background videos by any chance i think it has to do with the resizing of the canvas, but hopefully all issues will eventually be ironed out in future updates.
-
@lordmonkus Yes definitely needs font resizing but as this is only the first draft it will eventually be all ironed out in future updates with the help of @Jason Carr and i wanted to get this out there for people who wanted a working Vertical Theme before Xmas, it looks well on a 16.10 monitor as that and a 15.4 monitor is all i had to work on.
-
@donatello Sorry haven't been on in a few hours use 7zip as that is what i used to zip the theme.
-
@nicknamex Thank youfor that
-
@igotdvds Love your Marquees could you if possible do some generic marquees for the platforms themselves without games boxes but with the consoles on them these are very well done and look fantastic KUDOS.

Could this be made to write the output to notepad++ for people that don't have excel?

For the Games views and you want the small videos to play go into bigbox, options videos and untick show games videos the small videos should now play, provided they are named after the games or the roms and are in their proper folder, if you have them in a different folder you need to show LaunchBox where they are. In LaunchBox on the menu bar go to Tools, down to Manage Platforms, click on each platform in turn, then click on the Folders Tab, then click on video, Browse and show LaunchBox where your Videos are located.
See Screenshot

@Ninja Danny B If you are on about the platform views and want the small videos to play go into bigbox, options videos and untick show platform videos the small videos will now play. If you want to use screenshots for the backgrounds, replace the platform backgrounds go to LaunchBox\Themes\Glass\Images\Platforms\Fanart folder and place your screenshots there make sure to name them to your platform names. KUDOS for liking my theme.

@kerszr its just a fun aspect to coverflow most people who have downloaded it didnt know either till they tried it
-
@Thanos Reigns I created them myself over a year ago on the Old Forum site, i have not one done for the PC engine but if i had a full list of working platforms i would start next week creating new banners for platforms that i havn't done. But only for working Platforms not the likes of xbox etc that have no viable proper working emulators as yet.

Rincewind Theme
in Custom Themes
Posted · Edited by Maddoc1007
@Rincewind not being able to have a look in visual studio on views using coverfactory is not your themes fault i am running the latest beta and Vstudio cannot find the files it needs due to something missing in the beta to view these views so you just need to let people know if video was intended for the horizontal wheel 1 view or if it is a view that does not use video
