    @krazydad69 Just add the first episode in LaunchBox and then add all other episodes as an additional apps, then when you right click the first episode in LaunchBox it will show you a list of all the other episodes added as additional apps, or when you click on that episode in BigBox it will show you a list of the episodes you can click on and play. see screenshot

    @Jason Carr Just quick tested the latest beta Wheel are a lot smoother and all wheel logos show straight away, and the video transitions as well when set to fade are a lot smoother no popping, still quickly shows the device when set to none no biggie but i just leave on fade now as better smoother experience overall. KUDOS on another good quick fast update.

    While im not disputing Vlc is good or bad i used to use it extensively but it had many playback problems when i used it, that is why i went to daum potplayer and have never looked back it is more lightweight does not need installed codecs as it comes with its own and also as an added benefit windows media player plays all as well without having to install codecs as well (i do not have any codec packs of any description installed apart from potplayer 20mb and it also uses x input)

    @Britxcdn Oddly enough i just followed what you just posted and seen a speed increase in BigBox by turning off all music options except navigation sounds and yet i hadn't background music turned on maybe @Jason Carr should find an engine specifically for the music that doesn't rely on the vlc engine which seems to be at the bottom of this maybe too many instances of vlc running? maybe something like this which is an open source player http://www.jaangle.com/ it hasnt been worked on since 2012 and maybe some of the code could help source code https://sourceforge.net/projects/jaangle/ public licence gplv3

    @Britxcdn I had that problem with clicking forward and backward by any chance are you using a usb gamepad, the reason i ask is that i was and am and it was the usb port on my computer it had become loose (possible by pulling in and out the controller and usb devices i had to replace the female usb on the front of my computer because of severe wear once i replaced it the clicking became fine again, i'm just putting it out there as a possibility

    @Jason Carr Did some further testing noticed that it doesn't happen if you have platform video transitions set to fade and only happens when you have platform video transitions set to none. ps did some further testing only does it with the vlc engine doesn't happen with the wmp engine.

    @Jason Carr Emailed it to you at unbroken software. ps: it flashes quicker than the video shows the recording software slows it down more. If you speed the video up by 1.5 it will give you a better idea of it.

    @Jason Carr Here is a little video-capture of it Will email it as it goes to my desktop when you click on file when i upload it

    @Jason Carr Degradation is minimal i think it may have to do with the fact that device images are momentarily flashing onscreen before the video pops in, in the platform and the game views but its so quick i couldn't get a screenshot of it, I've only noticed this on beta 19 and the newest one now. also KUDOS 30 second download of the beta in IRELAND when it normally takes a few minutes.

    @ckp I could never get the volume buttons to work without the automation, it would be nice if they were directly linked to computer volume levels.
  13. Maddoc1007
    @ckp To get the volume buttons to work in BigBox i had to Setup up in Controller automation in LaunchBox a Hold Button then map the volume up button to a key and the volume down to another key, Then in BigBox i had to assign the same keys to volume up and volume down. Now to use it in BigBox you use the hold key and then press the key for volume up to raise volume and you use the hold button and press the volume down button to lower the volume see screenshots.

    @DOS76 Tried to mail you with new view for your htpc but it says you cant receive messages so ill post it here for you TextGamesView.xaml
  17. Maddoc1007
    @ALIE They are the aspect ratios i did them on same theme different aspect ratios. 5.4 for 5.4 and hopefully works well on 4.3 monitors and the 16.10 is for 16.10 monitors and @DOS76 said it also works well on 16.9 monitors
  18. Maddoc1007
    @DOS76 thanks also its great to know its working on 16.9 monitors as well that one had me worried a bit having no 16.9 monitor to check it on lol.
  19. Maddoc1007
    @DOS76 Thanks for the great compliment i worked really hard on this and long hours ps my daughter loves and wants it for her cab which i had to put off making for the time being and wanted something completely different non hyperspinny hopefully when i redo that view for you you will just have to scroll down to get to play.
  20. Maddoc1007
    @DOS76 It is the higher font setting you have, I will have a look at that later on i might be able to set it that it only shows one line at a time when i have it done it will be a few hours im afraid, i will mail you the new game text list view to replace that view later for you htpc.
  21. Maddoc1007
    @DOS76 LOL its the weather always blame the weather LOL.
  22. Maddoc1007
    @DOS76 hope it is working ok for you and thanks for being the first down-loader.
  23. Maddoc1007
    @DOS76 Yes i have skinned the Game Marquee to show box front box back and and a marquee underneath set the priorities for the box front and box back in LaunchBox the game marquees go into Arcade - Marquee folder inyou images folder for arcade and the other platforms etc. if you would rather the default game marquee copy it from your default theme folder and overwrite the one in my theme.
  24. Maddoc1007
    @DOS76 This is something @Jason Carr i think will have to look at its looks like its locked at default settings for some strange reasons i tested the theme over the last 2 days to make sure it was working ok and had no problems hopefully it an easy fix sorry im not much help. ps i checked it both with the controller and through changing with the options and was ok.

    @DOS76 are you on the latest beta?
