It's a nice view, but not at all in the spirit of my theme. If you or someone wants to make a fok of my theme, I have no problem with that!

@Lendersmark In the same place as the other videos =) That's why I made this thread. To centralize all the videos, it doesn't matter who makes them. On the official Download forum page. In LaunchBox, with the "Downlaod Platform Video Tool". On EmuMovies FTP (for premium user)

@SiriusVI I mean "your setup", sorry ! Yes, the issue it NOT because this video video, but the fact of animating, in full screen, a video. It takes a lot of work from XAML. (the Microsoft graphics engine behind BigBox for simplicity) Try , in BogBox, to setup the video engine to "VLC". Do you have a graphics card? Or the Intel chips? What is your CPU ?

You mean 16:9 right? No, I cannot adjust the theme according to the ratio of the video. There are too many different ratios depending on the platform. This is why I use this generic 4: 3 ratio. (And to leave room for texts ^^) The problem is not what is displayed IN the video, but animating a fullscreen video. This requires the XAML engine to recalculate each pixel on your screen. There is no solution". It's not a problem of optimization, but of design. After that, your config must be old, right? Or do you use slow discs or network? Or do you have a super fast screen ?? Good idea ! But it remains a "problem" to fix in the options of BigBox, not in the theme. =)

I also updated the "color" theme file! Go to the main theme download page or take it here: ColorCode_update_2021-03-04.zip

UPDATE by the community!!!! Amstrad CPC _by_ @CMOSS Commodore 64 _by_ @el Fredo Sinclair ZX Spectrum _by_ @CMOSS SONY PlayStation Vita _by_ @CMOSS

@clockw3rk I upload un little .zip file on main theme download page, with color code up to date with last video upload. Tell me if it's help ! Yes, it's easy, but not for inside BigBox theme download ... =/

@CMOSS WOW !!!! Veryyyyyy niiiiiice !!!! Thx ! =D Your 3 videos are TOP! No complaints. Maybe just magazines that don't have the same perspective, but I know it's very difficult (if not impossible) to find the right photos. If you want, you can post the video + sources set here and I'll put them with the others, with your credit. For the theme color codes, I would have to find an easier way to share them. If I have to update the whole theme with every new video, I'm never going to get it! Any suggestions?

Hmm. Big animation effects don't help the smoothness, that's for sure. But it must run well on the good configuration. Have you tried using the video set in HD instead of 4K? Theme is up to date ? Have you tried using the video set in HD instead of 4K? Theme is up to date ? I do not believe. I am using the basic function given in Jason's doc. Other theme uses it without problem! Unfortunately no. It's in the architecture of BigBox and I don't know how to get past that. In fact, the GameViewList is the same file as the GameDetailView. The only way to have a smooth transition is to use the GameViewList. Or, in the BigBox options, set the GameDetailView to OFF.

First of all, I would like to apologize for the response time. I had an incredibly busy start new year with work. I still have 1 month before a return to normal! Thanks for your patience

Sorry for the delay ... I am alone on this project and with the children and the work, it does not advance quickly!

Nice !!!! Sure, you can use it and share ! Yes, it's planned, but I can't tell you when ...

!! UPDATE !! + 3 Platform Video, by @tiualex !! Big Thx to him Microsoft MSX Microsoft MSX2 Nintendo Pokemon Mini

Sorry for the late reply ... a lot of work this month! Strange bug. - Do you have any other plugin installed? (LB or BB) - If you right click on all the files in: "LaunchBox \ Themes \ Colorful - xxx \ Plugins" Do you have the "unlock" option? If so, unlock and validate. - Have you tried deleting the theme folder and reinstalling it through the BigBox interface? Sorry to hear you're in trouble. This part of my theme is a plugin developed by @eatkinola. I don't really have my hands on it. Niiiiiiice !!!! Please post on the correct topic and follow the guideline ! The goal is to avoid mistakes made with the Nostalgia set and its contributor multipse posts. It is inconvenient for users. Send me the videos, I will add them my self to the main branch with your credits!

Realy nice !!!! About AE export setting, I don't know. I use a old adobe version (CS6) without "Adobe Media Encoder". Just export as MP4 H.264. No "real 4K" export option on my old version.

Nice !!!!!!! For the blue background color, you're right. But hey, not too much choice if you remain consistent with the hardware. It remains to hope for a shade of blue! You can try the pipette on the logo, then adjust it a bit. That does not flash eyes! No need to stay exactly on the original color! Your modification on the deformation are perfect! (To make it easier for you, you can detach the screen) But don't touch anything anymore: it's perfect! One last remark (no obligation) Drop shadow does not work very well behind screen and floppy drive. There should be some at ground level, but not behind. Again : realy niiiiiice work !

Thx @neil9000 !

Nope, no idea ... I don't use Category Video myself. @Jason Carr Is there a method to specify a Category Video by theme?

Wow !!! Niiiiiiice @el Fredo !!!!! Really good work! (sorry for the late reply: vacation with children ^^) I don't have much to add. That's realy great ! Maybe just the background color which is a bit dark? Trie to pic one of this color : And last note, the verticals which give a little big deformation. Maybe try to straighten the whole in Photoshop? + focal deformation correction in "Filter > Lens Correction"

Nice !!! Again, this theme deserves a total rewrite form scratch! I hope I have time to do it one day. But if someone wants to take control, we can see with @Jason Carr to transfer the theme to a volunteer!

You mean: 1 video set (=) 1 theme? If that's it, it's possible. When you download a video set, it goes in: LaunchBox\Videos\Platforms You can cut/paste in the theme of your choice. For exemple : LaunchBox\Themes\Colorful - Light\Videos\Platforms You can restart a download of another set and paste it in another theme. Yes, I integrated the scanline effect in the code, but I did not activate it. Why ? Because I can't limit the effect to video. It covers the area. So with high video (NDS, some arcade ...) the effect overflows and is not very aesthetic. The choice is yours! I did not think about that ! I add it to my ToDo =) So from memory, you need: Platform : Clear logo Platform : Video set Game : Gameplay Screenshot. Game : Gameplay video snap. Game : Clear Logo Game : FrontBox

No, I can't. The video animation setup makes a "block" move. He can't understand the difference between this video set or another. If you want to use Nostalgia here, I must you to use 4:3 version. The effect will be less bad! Basically, I decentered the Nostalgia set because I didn't know how to do it in code. Yes, I was stupid! =)

Strange. I just checked and it is the correct video for the Nintendo 64 folder. No error on my side. =/ I don't know where the problem come from !
