I see what you are speaking of. I have not written a 16:9 version on the Game Wheel View yet.
Unfortunately, this is not something I can directly fix across the board, I can only supply alternate views for the 2 different resolutions (4:3 and 16:9). The problem with this is if you use the theme for anything 4:3 presentation then those would be squished, so it's one or the other at this point.
I am hoping for some support in the way the images and videos are stretched so that they scale uniformly to the container they are in. @Jason Carr

I have updated the file to 1.5.
Some requests have made it in, please see the change log for details.
I will update again in 2 weeks time for any outstanding request or improvements

Thanks!! Works great now, looks awesome. This is gonna be my main theme. Its so slick looking. Is there a way to get rid of the box outline or will that have to be done in an update?
The update will fix this.

I've noticed my DPI setting effect text size in big box altering theme presentation fairly significantly. Could a setting be added to disable DPI in the options menu?

Open PlatformWheelImageDetailsThumbsFiltersView.xaml and change the line under,
<!--BEGIN FULLSCREEN BACKGROUND VIDEO-->
From this
<Grid Grid.Column="5" Grid.Row="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="15" Grid.RowSpan="12">
to this
<Grid Grid.Column="5" Grid.Row="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="15" Grid.RowSpan="10">
I would recommend making a copy of the theme folder and edit the copy, just incase anything goes wrong. It should be fine but better safe than sorry.
Thanks for posting that neil9000.
I am planning a possible 16:9 version of the theme, I may do a separate theme or just build it into an existing view. I'll decide Wednesday.

Hi everyone, hope the theme is working as intended.
I plan on adding a few changes next Wednesday and would welcome any suggestions you may have.
Thanks,

Updated to 3.0 See Details in Change log
A elegant and modern feeling theme that tries to keep details to a minimum.
Warning
Must be using Launchbox 7.1+ to use the theme
Unique Features

- Different view based around 16:9 or 4:3 videos
- Custom Favorite, Broken and Completed symbols
- Default Black and White theme that blends with most images
- Custom Futurestate Background Videos
- Simple Views with liberal use of game information on selection pages
Install instructions
Works with Launchbox version 7.1+
- Do a clean unzip into your themes folder, it is recommended to not right over a previous version
- Make sure to install the font inside the Font Folder if you would like to use the custom font
Alternative Views
Alternative view are views requested by users that alter the default theme. I try to fulfill requests if they are reasonable but may not update the files in newer iterations.
*use at your own risk*
Futurestate no info wheelgamesview.zip - This is a 4:3 Game View that removes all text over top of the game video.
Futurestate Themes
*Download the skins in the Themes download tab
There are a few variations for skinning Futurestate in the works. To use these create backup of your existing Images/Theme folder and copy the contents of the zip files over top of the original locations.
Put my Photoshop skills to the test! Request one and I will see what I can do!
**These files over write the default Futurestate skin!

Looking forward to this feature

You cant set stretch on anything but an image.
Try this:
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Width="Auto"

I have been working on a new theme titled Futurestate. Figure I would post a screenshot of what I have completed so far.
The theme is based around the Minimal Theme as I really enjoyed the aesthetic.
I have implemented Gaussian Blur and drop shadows in a few subtle places and as well implemented a blend around the wheel so that it fades towards the edges. I have also built some custom Icons for Game Statuses; Favorite, Broken, Completed.
Expect a initial release by the weekend with a system and game menu completed.

I would love to help out. I've contributed alot of higher quality stuff to the GamesDB as well as the cover project over the years.

I have been trying to import 32x games on the new beta and it will not download any metadata using the 'Download Metadata and Images' option. If I right click on each game and search thegamesdb it will find them and download just fine but this can only be done for each individual game. Also, cool too see the videos working, how feasible would it be to set the video as the background of each game?

I love how LaunchBox currently allows you to sort by different categories and even allows custom filters. I was wondering if it was possible to allow LaunchBox to have multiple categories on the Navigation Pane at once? I understand the same results could technically be achieved by using custom filters but with considerable more effort.
This little mock up shows what I mean by combining a 'Custom Filter' view with the 'Systems' view. The plus button would allow the user to add an additional category.
