No problem at all! That should work and like Neil said, be sure to refresh the cache in Bigbox, Options/Image Cache.

It should already be there, but I'd make the "Playlists" folder and then add a folder in that with the exact name of your playlists, and then add these sub-folders in that folder: Banner, Clear Logo, Device, Fanart

Yep

There should be a folder like this (example: sports) C:\launchbox\Images\Playlists\Sports Games\Clear Logo That's where you should put the logo

No worries! When all else fails, I just copy and paste images until I find what works. Just keep in mind though, if you place any logos in the "images" folder of Retrofresh, they'll only work with that particular theme

Which theme are you using? RetroFresh? You may need to copy that logo-image into the "Clear Logo" folder for "Playlists". And then refresh the images in options

I wouldn't worry about it, because in general, a lot of antivirus programs (including Microsoft's) identify false positives, and IMHO it's their method of persuading the customer into believing that their software is "doing a great job" and should (ultimately) be renewed for another subscription. Otherwise, I'd say if you downloaded launchbox from one of those shady websites out there, it could be a legit virus.

Thanks a lot for sharing this! Although I haven't used RocketLauncher in ages and will probably have to spend some time getting reacquainted with it. Do you have any examples or videos which show how these work? I'd like to see if there's anything worth adding, or just sticking with the standard fade utility that comes with LaunchBox/BigBox.

Thanks a lot for the update! The themes seem to be working normal again

@Jason Carr not sure if this is a known bug, but with the latest 11.5 beta, BigBox themes which I created with Community Theme Creator no longer work. The graphics don't show and everything looks very empty. After I installed version 11.4, there were no problems with these same themes.

Count me in too, as I'd love to see a BigBox theme which uses the artwork, patterns, scheme from CoinOps! As much as I appreciate and enjoy the amazing work they've put into coinops, it uses the frontend RetroFE which is quite limited in functions and the wheel lags terribly while scrolling through the game/system choices, making for a somewhat annoying experience.

Great collection of themes! I've made about 4 or 5 themes as well, but nothing worthy of uploading here, at least not yet

You have to use another program in conjunction with launchbox/bigbox and it's called rocketlauncher. With rocketlauncher, you can apply fades, pause screens, and bezels to emulators and programs which don't normally have them available. However, it does require some extra steps and a little bit of effort to get it up and running properly. On that youtube page, there's a link to the jukebox program and the bezels which can be used. Also, rocketlauncher can be downloaded here: https://www.rlauncher.com/forum/vbdownloads.php

Thanks. Actually, that does solve the problem temporarily, but causes a new problem in terms of portability

Not sure if this has been reported or posted by anyone else, but since the latest beta, there are some issues with startup screens. The ones which use external folders do not show any background graphics

Great work once again! The theme creator is definitely looking more polished and the extra features are quite good too!

Yep, that's what I did just now (check the post above) and I was able to get it to work, although it wasn't a very smooth or simple process. Nevertheless, problem solved for now. Thanks again!

Thanks! I finally figured it out, at least for now. Using a combination of the advice from @neil9000 and @Rlad I was able to get the right size without any bars around the video-image. Thanks a lot for the help! Here's what I was able to make (just now) with the Neo Geo game "Bang Bead" Note: If you watch it here, it doesn't look quite right, but if you watch it full screen on the youtube website, it's fine

What I'm trying to achieve is a video which looks like any of the other videos on emumovies. Something that looks like this: and not this and not this either While the 2nd and 3rd options might be expected behavior, they shouldn't be accepted behavior

Thanks a lot for the fast response. I tried this and played around with it for a while but the results still seem to be the same. I can't eliminate the bars around the video. Anyone else out there had luck with this?
