Here is a video of the 11 GameViews in my New theme SciDocwhich take account for the new views added, i apologise for the bad quality as my computer doesn't like recording software. Also sorry for the delay in uploading the theme as i am awaiting @Jason Carr to fix Wheelsgameview1, 2, 3 which broke the coverflow in the last beta however it works perfectly fine in beta 15 as you can see from the video i am also awaiting further folder support in the theme images/platform for user designated folders so i can add a folder there called marquee if Jason that is possible. My theme is completed in both flavours for all and will upload as separate 4.3 and 16.9 when Jason lets me know when fixes are done (as after all he is only one man who works his socks off). I will start the Vertical Default theme immediately these items are fixed.

@Jason Carr Latest beta has broken coverflow images in the new views HorizontalWheel1, HorizontalWheel2, and HorizontalWheel3, they are just showing blank with LaunchBox Logo. I had to revert back to beta 15 and they work again.

@Lynxai You'll have me blushing, i know what that's like having a daughter myself. Hopefully will be starting on it next week as have my other theme SciDoc almost finished.

Restart your computer and try again or use task manager to see if there is an instance of LaunchBox/BigBox running in the background that hasn't closed fully or the images folder\.background is still open.

All going well will have it finished before then Lol

@lordmonkus Willy Wonka Time is almost on us already LOL

I will be doing a default vertical theme in a few weeks once im finished the theme SciDoc i'm currently working on I asked Jason (as it is his default theme) and he said it was ok for me to go ahead and upload once it finished, so if people can hold on one will be coming.

@SentaiBrad That was a question that was asked by @cammelspit on mondays twitch that i watched yesterday about the flickering and @Jason Carr said it should be set at 512 and cammel tested it and said it stopped the flickering and it worked for me as well.

@Jason not long finished watching your latest twitch was very good looks like i'll have to skin some new views lol,

@draxxdk @SentaiBrad is right your default cache in LaunchBox is set to probably 300mb it must be set to at least 512mb in order to stop the flickering

Have done changes in the 4.3 version it will play both 16.9 and 4.3 platform videos so hopefully will be uploading new theme in a few days and a version for 16.9 videos both fully completed from top to bottom.

@andi massey My Glass theme works on 4.3 Monitors and i will be uploading a new theme in a few days am just waiting on a computer accessory to finish it off fully it will come in a 4.3 version as well but the platform videos must be in 16.9 format, You will be able to use 4.3 format platform videos on it as well just they will be a bit smaller and left aligned but i have created the theme to take full account of this fact. Link to video of my new theme.

@Jason Carr I tried to upload a video of my new theme SciDoc to the Video section both in Demo and Development but it keeps giving me an oops error and wont upload, it is a YouTube video it will upload on the forum but not the video section.

Here is a video of my new theme it will be a few days before i upload it as am waiting on a computer accessory to finish it all platform and game views have been finished as well as BigBox screen and options screen skinned as well as music popup. Sorry for the poor quality and the bad lag as my computer does not like recording software, i hope you like what you see.

@Jason Carr Thanks Jason looking forward to when you add folder support to such a fantastic addition KUDOS and to a @SentaiBrad tutorial after 7.0 is live.

@Jason Carr Apologies figured it out some more single music tracks will play one by one or by button press once set up for in Music/Background folder for platforms in BigBox. In BigBox i had view set in Games to Coverflow no music per game in this view but in the other game views music once named after game or .m3u named after game will play after each other or by button press once set up definitely needs a tutorial of the music features, Kudos a wonderful feature once you get your head around it.

@Jason Carr Figured it out was expecting the music to play per platform but it had to be named per game instead so it is working ok both indivudual tracks and .m3u. But while music will play per platform in BigBox, Bigbox still refuses to play .m3u even if named after game scroll to game nothing same also for platforms or has .m3u to be named as platform? I think a better explanation of the music or a tutorial for the music should be done.

@Jason Carr Music is not showing up in Launchbox see screenshot even though in Launchbox/Music/Background and autoplay turned on yet is working in BigBox

no worries

@Bilbotorm did you try default configs per game as my above screenshot

@Bilbotorm check your mail on here

@DOS76 True but keeping them in folders lets you have them organised and know what games you have the chd's for

@drtechnolust Thanks for letting me know good job i kept my standalone i just tried it and indeed it is broke must have been one of the latest nightlies that broke it as they were working fine for me when i set them up along time ago but not now only going to a blue screen.
