The Shield TV has a built-in option to mount network storage as a usable drive. I would recommend trying this, as Android doesn't really have good networking code otherwise.
Hey Jason, the network attached storage does not pop up as an option on importing.

Glad to see you have not thrown in the towel on this one.
-
I am pretty interested in seeing the network mount options functioning. +1 vote for me on this getting added if it's achievable.

I would love to see the Android TV "Quick Launch" ability added. Any plans for this feature?

Hey @Jason Carr: Any chance you might add this property notification in the future?
On a related note, a binding for SelectedCategory would also be helpful.
I would also like to see this added

There is an IsInGameDetails property on the model, but unfortunately it's not currently tied in with property notifications for when it changes, so it probably won't work well for bindings, hmm. Looks like you could also look for a change in the ListViewModel property, as that will change whenever the user goes back and forth between the details menu and the games lists.
It's a start!

Is there a Routed Event that gets launched when the TextGamesView switches from TextGameView to TextListView?
I am attempted to pause animations depending on if TextGameView and TextListView is active.

Nice Job on the theme.
Gotta admit I was never a fan of that box template though. Who ever created it was obviously not as skilled in Photoshop as they are now.

There are 2 things I hope to see in the new version.
A bug fix:
All information in the following link. This bug is annoying as hell, especially in BigBox where the additional apps are more pronounced than in Launchbox.
https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/3457/when-merging-two-titles-which-both-haveAnd a new feature:
Being able to set a custom aspect ratio for BigBox. And I don't want it to stretch, it want it to add black bars. I would absolutely love being able to do that. You see, I have an ultrawide (21:9) monitor at my desktop and although Bigbox works fine, 99% of the media (themes, images, videos etc.) are created for 16:9 screens and thus looks super weird on my screen. I'd like to spice up my BigBox setup a bit, but at the moment I sadly can't
https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/3310/being-able-to-force-bigbox-in-a-certainBigbox does this already. Each theme determines the set resolution in their themes configuration file.

- Added a 16:9 Game Art Horizontal view
Kind of a strange view, I am not 100% done itbut I think it should be serviceable for anyone looking for a view that does not use video. Its pretty unpolished (not all controls are implemented, no animations yet) .
There is an added custom control to put in some default art if the game does not have any. I meant to remove clear logos from the art it cycles through but have not completed that yet.
This maybe my last update for a few weeks. When I have time to update I will add the following:
- Implement a text list view
- Implement a very minimal view for slow systems
- Create a super detailed view Box Art, Game Disk, More Text
- Implement # of player Icons (Art is done)
- Implement updated community rating controls (if made available in API)
- Implement Retro Achievements (if made available in API)
- Spruce up views and animations
At that point the Theme will be done. From there I will create a Megadrive version and then look at extending the theme to other systems.
* I am reading comments (even if I dont respond often) and will consider them all as I progress on this theme

Another question concerning Max Players, Cooperative and Play Mode. I notice the games DB no longer references Play Mode but instead has Cooperative and Max Players.
While Launchbox contains Play Mode only
Is the API going to be updated to reflect those DB Fields?

What API are you referring to @Hexxxer
http://pluginapi.launchbox-app.com/html/b33d2055-e2be-3f42-12c6-adbc5668f454.htm

Will we be able to access Retro Achievements and Community star ratings in the API?

Updated again:

Added a 16:9 video Horizontal view for Cinematic Style Videos
- I don't have any additional background videos on this view yet, the other set looked funny when used in this view. I will probably create a few for the next release
- This view has a reduced amount of info on screen compared with the other two views
- I feel the view is a little too sparse, any suggestions would be appreciated

I have updated a few items in the theme, see the download for details.
I am still looking for suggestions on how to improve the theme. Please let me know what you think it could use or ideas for alternative views.

I have a suspicion the average rating for games is wrong, they all seem to be much lower than one would expect.
As a test, I looked at System Shock enhanced edition which had a 0 star rating from 7 users and then rated it, the average score is now 0.5. I am guessing those 7 people have not rated the game and their score has been logged as zero.

I love the style of this theme @Hexxxer, I would really like to see this with the PAL Mega Drive colours and logos as well as one with the Japanese Mega Drive colours and logos. This is the type of theme I was hoping to see when the feature was put in to swap themes per platform, great job m8
Also a view for Game Theme Videos would be a great addition too
This was always the plan, should not take much to make some different colors. The Mega Drive font is actually already included in the download.

Requested feature
in Android
Posted
Jason had mentioned in another post at the difficulty in implementing this. Even if launchbox could read the NAS share, there is no guarantee the emulator launching the ROM will be able to.
