Wanted to say the new release is a very nice improvement on the original. Good work, fingers crossed it does well and warrants continued dev. ? With that a couple of questions, NeoGeo MVS import for games on my phone is only scraping 1 game media (puzzle bubble). I expect there is more media available? I have imported and deleted and imported again. LB finds all 141 of my games fine I had trouble with permission when updating in the app. I have launchbox set to allowed for unknown app installs. I did find the APK in the updates folder and .39a installed fine Seems my error screenshot is not uploading ?

Thanks for the reply. Totally agree with the original point about images being replaced when you have a perfectly good spot for reconstructions to be added. Shame some people are not always as thorough. Thanks for the reference box image, what you say makes sense.

Hi, The issue in question is very valid and it's nice to see some decent attempts at moderation of the quality of the LBDB. Personally the definition of "authentic" seems a little off though. Surly you want scans of covers without any scratches, price stickers or labels 1st? Obviously with the age of the games will enjoy that's gonna be almost none! I hope the moderation and quality control continues to improve because there is some less desirable results right now. I also understand the amount of data involved and people willing to dedicate their spare time to it makes in inevitable that you will really only catch a small amount. One last point I would like to see raised is the respect of community contributers wishes. With anyone able to submit info, the whole DB is littered with artwork created and shared but not intended to be include in LaunchBox's database. In recent times we have seen at least 1 creator remove all of their current reconstructed artwork from the public domain. Directly because it was bulk uploaded to here without any confirmation or contact attempt of the creator. And @Jason Carr was not inclined to remove it when requested to. It is a real loss to people that like high quality artwork, that is very well researched to be the best reconstruction and closest to original you will find anywhere online bar none. We are talking hundreds of hours of work over years not crappy batch filters. Good luck with the improving the database and I hope it becomes something of higher standards in the future.

Understandable tbf

I had this the other day with a usb device I was not using. I updated the drivers for that usb in device manager which stopped the constant stream of messages.

Fair enough, I did play with it but don't actually have any emus not supported. I did some testing by using the commands for supported emus in the custom setup and that works fine.

Just picked up the LB app on my phone again since release. Seems to be coming along nicely. Keep up the good work With the custom emulator what is the ROM key path? I'm not to sure what the key bit means. I'm gonna give it a try out

Yeah RetroArch must be closed to allow launching to Rom. Seems pretty standard to me. Easy enough to close after playing via controller and hotkey or just touchscreen through the menu or normal android app closing methods

I just got back to messing with Android LB since release today. I will have a play and see if it happens for me. I have an older build on my phone as the current 64bit RA doesn’t have all availiable cores. I’m running 1.7.4 32bit

Go to Retroarch , updates, MISC and download retroarch overlay editor. where about sis this? In the app or a website?

Very cool. I didn’t realise they had an overlay editor. Thanks for writing and sharing

I bet.........Thanks for the reply. I look forward to digging into some of the tricky android systems and helping out where I can.

Just wondering if there’s a bit of a roadmap/poll for Android port additional features? Very nice to see the port becoming a thing, as yet I cant make the move from HS Android on STV but I may give it a little test this week on my phone, my LB setup is minimal.

If it’s not done before the next poll, I’ll try and remember to suggest adding it as “Party Mode” give you the ability to hide/create playlists/platforms/games for those type of situations when your not in control. It may gain more votes with Party in the title ? def a worthy addition imo

Seems the "maybe one day" is now here. Very much looking forward to the new android release. Goog times
