  1. To do this you can add the following to the storyboard element RepeatBehavior="Forever"
  2. Interesting. I guess we should tag @Grila as well then. Edit: As Jason pointed out above I've renamed the thread title to reflect the issue.
  3. I might be wrong but I think that's the same issue that @eatkinola has encountered a while ago as well. I'll just quote him:
  4. Ah sure, I haven’t thought about Excel at all. Great that you got it sorted out
  5. I guess the easiest way to do that without any fancy macros or regex would probably be to just sort all lines of the .xml file alphabetically, use the search to jump to the <Titles> section and then copy all of them to a new text file.
  6. Every single element of the theme should be commented in the respective View files so that you can easily identify them. You should be fine by just deleting all date/time/clock code blocks.
  7. Well that’s only an issue if you use more FE’s than LB with your RL setup. If you only use LB as your main FE than you can just rename the manuals you have in your RL installation and move them to LB to avoid duplicates and still have the ability to access them in both LB and RL. And with the right batch files it only takes a minute (per platform) to rename hundreds of manuals from the RL to the LB naming conventions. At least that’s what I did with the RL manual packages from RetroHumanoid.
  8. It already works. Just the other way around. RL finds the manuals (and other media) you have in your LB folder and can open them in the Pause menu.
  9. Thanks for reporting that. I’ve accidentally forgot to include a file in the latest 0.2 release. I just uploaded a new version, should be good now.

    The game count currently only works for playlists and platform categories when a theme creator integrates it in a specific way which isn’t feasible for a lot of Views. The reason for this is that the current way of how the game count is calculated for playlists/categories is a little buggy and Jason wants to revamp that method first before he adds support for it to the other way the game count can be displayed. So for now we all have to live with that fact until jason has tackled it,
  11. This is indeed a very fine slim theme and I’ll definitely have to take a closer look at the customizer app as it sounds very interesting. You are always good for a nice surprise by bringing such innovations into Big Box theming.Thanks for being a part of this community
  12. It definitely looks very promising. Keep up the good work
  13. The native element for videos in Big Box doesn’t support any kinds of stretching. It’s possible with a workaround by using the background element for it and force enable background videos in the Big Box options. But that also means that you can’t use fanart images anymore, so that’s not an option. There’s also already a transparent black box around them to give the videos a more unified profile, isn't that enough in your eyes? I’m lost here. The WallView shows 3 rows with 5 games per row, for every platform, so that’s definitely consistent and the TextList and CoverFlow aren’t affected by this issue at all. Are you talking about the favorite games list in the platform views?
  14. I’m not quite sure if I understand you correctly. You want that all videos get stretched to 16:9? I also don’t know how that should work for boxart as you have completely different formats across all platforms, for example it would like horrible if you stretch a SNES box into a DVD case format. Besides playlists and PC games I can't think of a scenario where you would run into these situations.
  15. Version 0.2 is out! Changelog: - General: The WallView now does support game videos! Important: You need at least LaunchBox v8.0 Beta-2 to see the videos in the WallView, otherwise you won't see anything at all, not even screenshots. If you don’t want to update to the latest LB beta version yet I suggest you to stay on one of the previous 0.1.x versions of this theme.
  16. New update Changelog; 0.1.4 - Updated: NJDave71's HelperControl plugin was updated to the latest version - General: The speed of the horizontal scrolling text was increased
  17. According to Wikipedia it's: Namco System ES3 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_Kart_Arcade_GP#Mario_Kart_Arcade_GP_DX
  18. Speaking of utterly garbage games for your collections. I hope you already have these horrible Maxis education games on your list for Win3.X that LazyGameReviews dug up a few months ago. (links to the games in the description of the video)
  19. I’m not sure if you can even change the text speed at the moment. The horizontal scrolling text was made possible with a custom plugin created by @NJDave71. Only he can answer your question.
  20. Every theme has text list views as theme developers can’t deactivate them. So basically you can try out all of them and see if you find one that fits your likings. Just be aware that some themes will only have basic edits of the default text list views as they aren’t the main focus of the theme.
  21. Not entirely, here's a good guide about how the files have to be named in order to be recognized by LaunchBox,
  22. Haha, you're welcome
  23. You can reduce the background fade in the Big Box options. Let me know if it's still too dark even when set to 0%
  24. Sure, that’s definitely possible. Just open the View you want to edit and replace the line of code for the background with this: <Image Source="Path to your image" Stretch="Fill" Panel.ZIndex="0" RenderOptions.BitmapScalingMode="HighQuality" /> Make sure that you use / for seperating the folders in the path. If you prefer to do a relative file path start your path with this: {}pack://siteoforigin:,,,/ that's the relative path to your LaunchBox folder.
