  1. The alignment properties are buggy for WMP and VLC but each has its own problems with that. I encountered that problem for my own theme as well and it appears that it depends on the video. Some videos aren’t affected at all while others always have the same issue to be not properly on the position they should be.
  2. Sure, feel always free to ask. I’m not Jason so that’s just the way I see it, so you never know The issue with the hardline that you see could probably be fixed with some color gradients. It never really bothered me so I haven’t played around that much to find a solution.
  3. Well, what you describe is exactly that: a workaround for HyperSpin. I'm not saying it's a bad idea but recreating that workaround to work similar in Big Box would be way too limited to work just for this specific scenario, so I don’t see a native support for it coming any time soon. If a build-in solution for this will come than it will most likely work/look very similiar to my current workaround which only uses one wheel logo per game. Here’s a video of my theme and my workaround. You could “gray out” the other wheels even more if it isn’t dark enough for you
  4. Something similar is possible with a little trick in Big Box as well. You have to split the wheel in 3 sections were the section in the middle only contains the currently selected game. Then you add a fade over the upper and lower sections and it looks like the wheel in the middle section is highlighted. I use that exact same method in my own theme as well.
  5. If you are using the latest beta version of 7.0 than you can try to reduce the “Wheel Minimum Speed” in your Views options. I experienced small lags in the CoverFlow views as well but after I've set the speed to 200 Milliseconds it’s almost completely gone for me.
  6. The View in your screenshot doesn’t support any platform videos. You have to switch to a View which does. You can either switch the View in your Big Box options in “Views -> Platform List view” or you can set up a key/button to switch the views on the fly (Keyboard Mappings or Controller Buttons in your options)
  7. I think what he means is that LaunchBox doesn’t save your settings for this. You can move and resize all the columns but when you exit LB and reopen it, everything is set back to standard. Same thing happens when you switch between the Images and List view. I don't know if this is bug or by design @Jason Carr ?
  8. There's a workaround for Amiga. @Zombeaver made a great and detailed tutorial for it. I hope that helps you
  9. I hopefully have fixed that by reducing the file size of the whole archive. At least it works perfectly fine for me on my end now. Can you try it again?

    Reddit

    Well...this subreddit isn't dedicated to the one and only king of FE's. It's for an App for... space flights schedules? What the hell!? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.foschwi.launchbox
  11. Great job Viking! Especially the platform view which features your 4:3 videos looks really nice
  12. True, but you can set a default background image for each platform which is shown instead of the black background when there’s no fanart for the game itself. Just add your platform backgrounds into the Fanart folder for each platform. You can find them in “\LaunchBox\Images\Platforms\..”
  13. @imdavid555 I'm on it! @bundangdon and everyone else who has a request for a system: The structure of the unified themes is pretty simple, so with the right images I could create some new ones for you. I will do all your requests BUT you have to provide me all of the following source files: - Neutral Background image (no characters, consoles or controller). If possible in 1920x1080. - Gameplay video (NO trailer / features at least 3 or more games) - Clear Logo (transparent background / high resolution) - Picture of the system (transparent background / high resolution) [I don't need that for arcade systems] - Picture of a gamepad for this system (transparent background / high resolution) [I don't need that for arcade, handheld and computer systems] - Character of a popular game which can be played on this system (transparent background / high resolution) I have zero Photoshop skills, so all images already have to be properly edited to fit the requirements or I have to refuse your request.
  14. @Porl Hendy I just use the standard Fanart - Backgrounds you get through the importer from the LB games database and EmuMovies. @imdavid555 Well, then you have to nag @Jason Carr long enough until he adds support for this
  15. Just the 16:9 theme, I already have a video for this system.
  16. It’s possible but that would require some work as the standard platform banner element in Big Box doesn’t support .gif files. You would have to add every .gif file manually for each platform directly in the code of the view.
  17. @andyco47 If you can give me a widescreen HyperSpin theme for it, sure. But I won’t create one for it from scratch, sorry. @imdavid555 Should be all fine now
  18. It's a paid service and integrated into LaunchBox. Maybe you wanna take a look at this tutorial
  19. I get that as well. Seems that EmuMovies has some server issues at the moment. All we can do is to wait until they have fixed them.
  20. Yes, these are the Cinematix videos by BakerMan which you get directly through LaunchBox. If something is missing you can fill in the gaps with other video theme styles like or
  21. Pokemon Sun. Gotta catch 'em all!
  22. Well, you weren’t very specific which type of platform videos you mean. Themes for your mentioned platforms are available in my Unified and Nyny77 Cinematics style, but not as Cinematix from BakerMan.
  23. Awesome! Thank you very much! These are looking great as usual Yeah, I don’t know very much about Korean games either but I found this gem through one of my favorite gaming websites http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/ I can wholehearted recommend this website to anyone who is interested in the complete spectrum of retro games! Btw. thanks for the tip on Geppy X. Will definitely check that one out.
