I have a similar issue, where every 10th time or so VLC will play the video but with grey corruption. I think these issues are to do with VLC still loading while loading the content at the same time so it can’t keep up and missing the first key frame. As I occasionally have the same issue with my own install of VLC when first opening a video.

I've modified the Minimal Platform Logos 1.0.0 to better suit this theme. I would recommend adding MaxVerticalImageResolutionOverride="1500" to PlatformWheel1FiltersView.xaml as this will help avoid having blurred images in general. I also noticed that the view count option for coverflow control still doesn't work. This mainly effects PSP games as the covers aren't that wide. But this is an issue with LaunchBox not the theme tbh.

Minimal Platform Logos For Switch Theme View File This is a modified version of Minimal Platform Logos 1.0.0 for the Switch theme by Grila. To avoid blurred images add the option: MaxVerticalImageResolutionOverride="1500" To the coverFlow:FlowControl in PlatformWheel1FiltersView.xaml. Then open Big Box and refresh your images.

@alfredolvera no problem, its a new change. Hopefully the No Intro guys will start appending the firmware by default so people with those ROM sets don’t have to manually do it.

As of higan v105, co processor firmware has to be appened to the end of the ROM. http://higan.readthedocs.io/en/stable/guides/import/ The documentation tells you how to do this.

That's cool, I wanted to post the way I did it, to help people that are having issues.

I just wanted to share the way I personally add windows games to launchbox. So I created a .bat file and added it to my emulators folder. The .bat file: pushd %~dp1 "%~nx1" Once you've created the bat file, add it as a new emulator in launchbox and add "windows" to associated platform. And now all you have to do is import the games exe as a rom file.

I really love his set and I hope it doesn't get totally abandoned.

I'll just leave this here...

I personally have all my ROMs on my NAS and it makes no noticeable difference to my setup. So having on a second hard drive shouldn't be an issue.

I personally make a folder full of shortcuts to the rpx files then just point launchboxes importer at that folder and all i then have to do is rename the games correctly once imported, nice and easy.

I personally use higan and have --fullscreen as a command line parm, which launches higan in full screen, don't know if this will would with bnes

A wiki sounds like a great idea, rather than having to search the forum. I hope there will be one as well. I have found: https://www.launchbox-app.com/wiki/launchbox But it doesn't look like it's been touched in quite a while.

Now Ive seen this, there is totally potential for a gamecube one. This is still awesome though!

Yeah I would love to be able to select a folder of videos to be randomised for when bigbox starts up.

I would also love to see this implemented, given it a vote in bitbucket.

Your awesome! I will have to try these out in the morning.

That's exactly what I've done myself, only thing is getting the navigation sounds now

This is my most favourite theme, will keep on using this one as long as its supported within big box, great work! What Platform icon pack do you recommend for this one? I'm personally using the minimal platform logos in white.

Yeah I haven't seen it with other images just ones ive used the blur on, so its got to be something to do with the way gradients are compress/resized but thank you for taking the time to reply, even if its an option to have higher quality images at the sacrifice of performance.

So currently i'm using the "Video Path" under "Manage Platforms - Edit Platform" to direct to an image so vlc displays the image rather than a video (which is displaying the image correctly), but if I was to use the image in launchboxes folder "\LaunchBox\Themes\Default\Images\Platforms\Fanart" then thats when I see the downgrade in quality. The blurring is meant to be there, its the quality of the image that gets effected, if you look at the grass in the image. Sorry if i'm not explaining this in the best way.

So when customizing my BigBox theme, I used to use Video backgrounds per plateform to display images before the new update where you can place images into the themes folder directly and have them displayed. But when I did this I noticed that the image quality isn't as good as using VLC, I have "CoverFlow Image Quality" set to highest (personally don't know if that makes a difference to these background images). It's like the fanart image is getting compressed. Link to screenshots showing the issue: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5zomokdfjchm9xk/AAA65A6s4khBCZxnsdxIdkmka?dl=0
