Hi everybody, I'm on the latest 7.8 build. Lately, when i load a retroarch core from Bigbox it sometimes (about 1 in 5 times) wont load properly. What happens instead is that the screen goes blank, if i click a button I can here Bigbox noises, but nothing else happens. However, if i alt tab I can find retroarch running my game, I can then play it and exit normally. I'm wondering if this is a known bug or some weird setting I have in bigbox or retroarch. I havent noticed it happening in other emulators, but to be honest, I use retroarch the most.

Filters are available on most versions of mame, try retroarch mame cores

Hmm, A tad more information would be great, but my guess would be your pointing launchbox at the wrong exe. There should be a couple of exe's in your mame plus folder, one is to run the gui the other is for frontends like launchbox. Try the other exe

Hi, I use mame plus plus and am happy to help...but you need to be a bit more specific. What is the problem? Are roms not loading or is Mame not loading?

Hi Stevencostner, I had the same issue with most skins, it turns out that this is a requested feature from some people...yeah i dont get it either lol. Anyways to kill it, go into you themes folder, click on the theme that has it and look for another folder called 'views'. Right click the file called 'WheelGamesView', edit it was a text editor and delete the lines that mention this feature, Something like "show psx and arcade rom names", not 100% sure what it says as ive deleted mine...this sounds complex, but it really isnt.

Hi, I'm on the latest beta and ive noticed games have gone back to being sorted by 'the' and 'a' etc. For example: to find 'The legend of Zelda' i now need to jump to letter 'T' not 'L'. Is this a bug? or is there an option to toggle this feature somewhere? Warm regards

Thanks Thanos, I am up and running now with some awesome looking videos. Cheers

Hi Jason, I am located in Australia. Small files work no problem, but for whatever reason larger ones always fails around 50%. My network is stable and i have tried a friend's network and my mobile, all fail around 50%...is quite strange Appreciate any help.

Hi, I really like the look of the Cinematic 1080p videos that Nyny77 made. However, I cant download them. Every time i try, it gets to about 50% then fails. I have tried multiple browsers and different networks, all have different antivirus/firewall configs...so I dont think its that. Anyone know what it could be? Cheers

I love Kirby, Bubble Bobble, Donkey Kong Country, Zelda and Street Fighter

Hi, I have an unpopular setup with my shaders. I use them to smooth out visuals and remove pixel edges...i know it is terrible lol :). Anywho, even as a child of the 80's and being extremely nostalgic with games, i just dont get scan lines, but to each their own. I use a filter called sabr, really knocks the pixels out cold when ran at 2x, then i run a blur filter to take away some of the harshness, to me that is perfection, but it really is personal taste.

Hi Playpopo, I was the same as you, looking for a trail before laying down the money for Bigbox. What i can tell you is that after making the purchase Bigbox has exceeded all my expectations and runs flawlessly. I would also be happy to answer any queries you have about it, but as someone who has toyed with other frontends like hyperspin, Bigbox is 100 times easier to setup and a joy to use :)

howdy, Yup is no easy way to have kodi in true fullscreen and bigbox min/max properly...as far as i know. However, im 99% sure adv launcher has an option that when u load a program (such as big box) rather than suspend or min kodi it completley exits out of it, then when you exit bigbox, advlauncher loads kodi again. This of course adds a few seconds at least to loading kodi. Also not 100% sure how that would work with a shell of kodi? but is worth a shot :D

hmm no expert but it does sound like it is relating to you using a shell for kodi, like kodi doesn't minimize properly to allow bigbox control, which results in no sound.....just a guess though. Going back to advanced launcher, i think i didnt explain myself well there lol, happens a lot :), you can use adv laucnher to point to ur install of bigbox and it will launch it identical to the big box app, but with the benefit that adv launcher has a few more options that may solve your problem. So, if it was me i would grab adv launcher, point it to load bigbox, and play with some options, if that works, would be identical to ur current setup, but with sound :) .....again im no expert though, just thinking about what i would try if i was in ur situation.
