I know this has been discussed before, but I still haven't found a solution... I have no problems AT ALL with version 7.0, but when I update to anything newer than that, I run into the following issue: (Doesn't happen every time) But often, when I exit an emulator (using the built in automation... (select + start)) BigBox will completely hang.. It happens often enough that I created an AHK that closes and restarts BB. As I said, everything works fine on version 7.0, but I really like the playlist functionality (amongst other upgrades)
Things I've tried:
I have used both VLC and Media player for videos.
I forced populated all game wheel images.
I'm using the max RAM cache.
Hide Taskbar (Checked & Unchecked)
Show "Loading Game" (checked & unchecked)
Some observations:
I am running Windows 7, but I shelled with BigBox (replaced explorer.exe with BigBox.exe)... If I have explorer.exe loaded when the freeze occurs, I can see the taskbar (meaning BigBox lost focus). But clicking on BigBox to return focus doesn't solve the issue, I have to kill and restart regardless
The videos and scrolling game info freeze as well
It generally doesn't freeze after exiting the first game... only after the second or third exit
Sometimes BB will lose focus after exiting an emulator, but the gamelist video will still be playing... if this is the case, then I can just "click" to give BB focus back, and all is well (if the video is frozen... then I have to close/restart BB)
Specs:
Windows 7 64bit
Core2Duo E8400 @ 3.00GHz
8GB RAM
I will update this as I try new things... Please ask me if you need any other details
Thank you all in advance for the help
Cheers!
