    I actually just renamed the bezels and config files and the paths inside the config files to match my roms. Its pretty easy because when I set up my roms I use advanced renamer 

    That works as well as long as you never change your rom set out, but in the end, whatever works best for you.

    Just for your information, we use the No-Intro naming standard for cartridge based systems, the Redump naming for systems with optical media, then we fall back to TOSEC naming for computers.

  2. I did forget to mention one thing. V1.1.13 of the Windows app uses the same configuration logic as LaunchBox, so that version should be used unless you specifically want the new install logic that mimics the configuration used on the Linux platform that avoids naming conflicts that can arise if you use Retroarch cores that support more than one system, V1.1.14.

    Finally, the latest version, 1.1.15 addresses and uses the correct MAME lay file logic.

    Thank you so much. Im just at a loss at what to do. Right now im manually downloading everything but I don’t know how to auto display the bezels like launchbox does so I am manually applying them

    Using the Bezel Project Windows app should not matter to LB once the files are installed. They go to the same location. The only thing you might have to do is rename your roms to match the bezel names, but if you are using standard rom packs, that shouldn't be necessary either.

    The Bezel project windows app works. I am not sure I have the right one though. I have the one that imports all bezels and configs for that platform. It doesn’t scan your games instead downloads everything

    That is correct. That app is an all or nothing approach. For what it is worth, we polled our user base at the time and most downloaded full No-Intro sets, so we packaged both the Linux and Windows apps to provide that.

    It has been happening for the past few months. Whenever I download the bezels on my laptop it comes up with the following log. I have searched online and found no answers. Can someone help me?

    I forgot to ask and I assume you have tried different builds of LB as the different versions came out? How far back have you tried?

  6. You should never have to run LB and/or BB as admin, but at least that is a good data point to have.

    The only thing I can think of as a way of diagnosing all possibilities is to try using the Bezel Project Windows app and try installing bezels for a platform that you already know causes you problems using LB. That will verify your ISP isn't causing download issues from Github, which is where the files originate from.

    See how these work for you. There is already a Taito F3 ring posted here in this thread, in addition to the above mentioned Silver Ring ClearLogo Set, Additional archive.

  8. I have finally gotten around to uploading the older videos I created some time ago to match the ones Viking provided originally. Without his work and efforts, this collection would not exist. These are hosted on Mega for now as the ones I uploaded to EmuMovies were deleted without being used and the ones uploaded here were accidentally deleted twice. I hope this is ok with those who have graciously asked me to upload these once again.

  9. I don't want to derail your thread, but if do not want to wait on a fix, you could always fall back to the Windows Bezel Project app to see if the native MAME option works for you.

    Note: The master list of MAME lay files which are used to install bezels into MAME have not been updated yet to match recent Github repository updates for the supported systems. MAME lay file updates will be done when full repository updates are complete. Out of 73 repositories, there are five yet to update, so soon we hope to circle back and update the MAME lay masters to match.

    Thanks! Weird, the aspect ratio of the themed bezels for SG-1000 is completely wrong, almost GBA-style. The System Art bezels are 4:3, which is correct. Do you know why they decided to change the aspect ratio for SG-1000?

    The original themed set tried to adjust for the non square pixels VS 4:3 standard. The system art stayed with the 4:3. There is no right or wrong with our modern options. Pick what style you want.

    Just to set expectations. When Steam overhauled their videos system and broke our Steam trailer download support, they basically made all of their video files not accessible. There's literally no videos on their servers for anyone to download anymore. Instead, they replaced it with live streaming versions of them. So, instead of files that can be downloaded, they are video and audio streams. This means the only solution we really had at that point was to capture the video and audio streams and use a program to mux them together and create a file to save to disk. Doing all of that cannot be realistically as fast as simply downloading a file, like we were able to do before, but it does work. All of it can be tested in beta right now, so let us know how you like it.

    Wow, like I have been told over and over, never depend on anything offered for 'free' because, given time, it won't be free any longer. Great job on the workaround. Thanks.

    No worries.  Glad to hear all's good!

    They were aware. It's just the problem was a little deeper than initially thought.  e.g.  Admin could be logged in, and it Just Worked™. Issue? What issue?

    As more comments were left (here, in an appropriate place ;)), further digging commenced.

    As I learned at work long ago, never test as admin! 😁
