Likely you have the wrong retroarch core set in Launchbox, change it to the one that works outside of Launchbox. You cant just use random mame roms with random versions of the mame emulator, mame doesnt work like that, you need to match your rom version and mame version for true compatability.
-
Not sure what you are talking about in regards to retroarch banners or retro achievement banners, and as Launchbox doesnt mess with any retroarch settings im finding it difficult to understand what you are saying. Can you please provide some screenshots of what youy are referring to here.
-
Yeah you need to be careful if just adding a folder. Launchbox is file agnostic, so will add any files it finds in the folder path you provide.
-
If it needs to be relatively reasonably priced you can rule out running Launchbox for windows (unless you feel like getting a steam deck and a large sd card and flashing windows to it but that would be around £500). As for Android you could look at the Retroid Pocket 3 or the Ayn Odin which would run you around £150-£300. If you have a older Android phone laying around you may already have a perfectly good device that you could just wrap a telescopic controller around also.

Yes, i am afraid so the GPD is more powerful and designed to run Android, The RG351p is less powerful and designed to run emedded Linux OS solutions like Emu Elec or Batocera, which are highly stripped back linux based gaming distro's (there is no desktop or other linux programs for example). As for running the PC verion of Launchbox on Linux i dont believe that works anymore, and really wouldnt be any good if it did because as i said in my previous reply the RG351 is weak hardware with only 1GB of RAM, it is designed to run something like Batocera or Emu Elec, stripped back OS's, not actual full blown OS with desktops and installable programs and the like. Currently Launchbox is only on Windows and Android, none of which will run on the RG351m i'm afraid. If i was you i would look into Batocera or AmberElec for that specific device.

As far as i recall there is no official Android support on that device, it uses linux out of the box, and all but one of the custon OS's are also linux based. There is one Android based OS, but i dont believe it allows installing APK's like that, its more a ready to go OS, and i think discontinued. The RG351 devices are pretty old at this point and very low powered with only 1GB of DDR2 RAM if i recal, that would probably be a terrible Launchbox experience, if you could even get it installed.

Sounds to me like you simply imported videos into Launchbox rather than games. I'd check your paths on the games playing videos, pretty sure they will not be pointing at any games at all.
-
Two things, i dont believe there are any bezels for PS2, also these bezels are for Retroarch and not RocketLauncher.
-
I guess it could also be your display if its a reallly early 4K display. -
In that case either your Cable or the port on your GPU/Motherboard does not support HDMI 2.0, so cant do 4K 60. Drop it to 1080p, or look into what connections you actually have and if they even do 4K 60 or not.
-
You didnt specify Bigbox, that has a option in its settings for the display. Your image however is a game, not Launchbox or Bigbox, so you will need to tell your emulators which display to use.
-
Just drag the Launchbox window there, like you would with any other app.
-
It does read this information and is used for data points, but is ignored in the actual game name. At the end of the day we cannot account for everything, and ill be honest in saying that your roms are the worse named roms i have seen, I would suggest looking elsewhere for your roms, and specifically look for "No Intro" romsets, they are the standard for good roms, as well as having what is the standard for naming, which is game name, then any extra info like regions, versions ect bracketed, like below.
-
Man those roms are poorly named. Anything in brackets is ignored for the game name, so yes its your rom names that are a issue here, i see in your mario gold rom it actually has the game name twice, both times brackated, so ignored by the scraper.
-
what do you mean by this? The import wizard is a automated process, you drag and drop your roms, or point Launchbox at a folder or specific file, and it reads the contents and shows you a list of what it is going to import, you dont enter game names manually anywhere. If the import wizard comes up with a blank box to import than that is 99% of the time because you already have those games imported. Sounds like you may be well served by taking a look at a import tutorial, we have tons of them in our tutorial playlist on our YouTube channel.
-
You could of just deleted your playlists from the Launchbox>Data>Playlists folder instead of going nuclear like that.
-
Its on the same download page, when you click download you get the older versoins too.
-
You should do that with any program, many save data when exited and shutting down the PC is not exiting a program, its really no different than pulling the power lead, so not advised.
-
Change it like you are already doing, but then save a core or content directory override.

Bigbox Mame Exit Game to Game List Not Game Details
neil9000 replied to kebbin's topic in Troubleshooting
You can turn the game details screen off completely in the options, and you can also set it to a button so you can bring it up at will if you need it. -

932Gb is way to big for the arcade CHD romset, it's actually closer to 550GB. And yes the vast majority of them are for non working games.
-
Especially considering those other distros are open source and free, and Bigbox is closed source and requires a fairly expensive purchase to even be able to test it out.
-
You will need to make those yourself, MAME is the only platform that we auto do that for, and thats simply cause the MAME emulator itself contains all that info, so its easy to do. Games for other platforms would be relying on the info in our game database, that may be incomplete.
