    The problem with colors in video is that it changes all the time.
    using the eyedropper in Photoshop does not always work well. We're close, but it's not perfect.

    What I do in these cases:

    • Launch BigBox and launch the desired platform.
    • Press  "print screen" key on my keyboard.
    • Open Photoshop > Ctrt+N > Ctrl+V
    • Here, use the eyedropper tool to get the Hex code

    yes. Boring ... but it's works !

    Because between Photoshop edit, After Effect export, codec and VLC player, all color change a little ...

    Thanks for the clarifications, then I'll try to get the closest colors.

    These systems have a slight color difference between the video and the color that the theme uses. I still can't find the correct colors.

    If someone still had the older theme files you could use them, as long as you note that all platform view colors are broken in that version.

    I've ported the theme over to the COMMUNITY Theme Creator, which is currently in beta. That version will eventually replace this one. So if you, or others, have time to test the colors, I can make any adjustments before the release.

    Hello, I made some adjustments on some systems that had the wrong cores, I will post the file with the modification I made.

    I'll check the logs for errors. The crash has been happening when I select a game in wall view 2, and then back out to the game list without starting the game. It's not consistent, but that's been what I was doing every time it crashed.

    Try to change the video player to WMP and see if the problem happens.

    So, viking leaving only the playlist name without the arcade, here in my setup it worked. Example of how I left it.
    <add key = "Playlist.ATARI_CLASSICS" value = "Atari_Classics" />

    <add key="Playlist.ATARI_CLASSICS" value="#f2cc47" />

    The names of my classics systems are without the word "arcade", they look like this:
    Unique Name: Atari Classics
    Nested Name: Atari Classics
    I tried to put the word "arcade" but it didn't work.
