You do not "import" the videos. Just tell Launchbox where they are like you have in your image and also make sure you have videos turned on in Tools/Options/Legacy/Game Details. Also i see in your original post you say the path is "videos/1942.flv, are the video files actually flash? As im not sure if flash is supported or not.

The above script will work with your controller if you have setup a "close active window" combo in controller settings.

My guess here is the splitter as well. The fact you have a image means that the HDMI is working, so you should also have the audio option, the fact that you dont could be the splitter stripping the audio out, maybe for HDCP reasons? Or is it passing a format the splitter cant handle for some reason? As @JoeViking245 says, id try without the splitter first as that is my suspect. Also in the audio options make sure you have the "show disconnected" and "show Disabled" device options checked, and see if it shows as a device.

Yes. You can choose to save globally, per core, per content directory, or per game.

You dont save overrides for shaders, there is a specific option to save them in the shaders menu.

Yes.

There is no setting anymore. The video will either play to the end, or skip when you press a button and if Bigbox is ready.

Use the steam importer to import steam games, it will scrape steam not our database.

Xinput is part of directx that was created by Microsoft and is part of Windows. It is the standard these days for controller support on Windows, and is also what the xbox controllers are using. So any xinput controller will be seen by Windows as a xbox controller.

Thing is most new games will require the same sort of graphics power as the ps3 and xbox 360 emulators do, ( and to be fair the emulators may need more power than new games, and also neither of those emulators are ready for prime time yet). I used to have a GTX 1060 6GB card paired with a i5 3570k and some PS3 stuff ran somewhat OK, other stuff was a complete no go, i also tried Red Dead Redemption on the 360 emulator and that ran at about 15 frames a second. This as i say with a 1060, which is more powerful obviously than a 1050 TI. Obviously your mileage may vary depending on the games you want to play, but i feel you are being a little over optimistic here with the platforms to run with that GPU, and even more so when you consider how new and buggy those systems emulators currently are.

As already stated updating media never touches your games or your emulators, it simply downloads files to folders. Sounds like you have more serious issues if its the same on both systems. Are they networked? Are they sharing a cloud storage folder?

You dont need Launchbox running as admin to launch ganes in CEMU. As @DOS76 said, sounds like you have something else going on on your PC. Neither Launchbox or emulators need admin rights.

Launchbox should not be run as administrator, it will stop certain emulators launching as they will need elevation.

Agreed.

Well, restarting the emulator would close the pause screen and trigger the shutdown screen (if enabled) i would imagine. Launchbox will see the emulator close essentially. Maybe possible, but with my layman knowledge that sounds like a hell of a re-write of the pause and startup/shutdown screens.

Sorry i cant answer that, i havent used that emulator in years. I use the retroarch core for PS1.

I would use one of the xbox controllers personally, natively supported on Windows and by emulators, has two sticks (needed for some ps1, and of course ps2, gamecube). As for emulators, those are just that suggestions, personaly i use retroarch for as many systems i can with a few exceptions, i do use it for N64, using the mupen plus next core.

There is a option in the emulator for one memory card per game. https://www.ngemu.com/threads/epsxe-2-0-5-use-individual-memory-cards-by-game.204217/

Or do you mean the internal card the emulator uses?

Buy a bigger one.

We do not support pre-built Launchbox builds here. But if all your emulators have gone you will need to download them all again. Things just dont disapear though, so maybe you have a virus or your hard drive is dying.

Yeah that message is simply saying that the emulator you pointed Launchbox to is no longer in that location.

Also just to add there arent really any options in Launchbox that control the emulators, unless you have specifically input some command line options yourself. Launchbox simply opens the emulator and it uses whatever settings you have set in said emulator.

Yeah its only been available for two and a half years. Version 7.11 - Released September 14, 2017 New Premium Feature: A new wall view has been added to the Big Box games lists! New Premium Feature: New Big Box key and controller button mappings have been added for starting Attract Mode on demand, and spinning the wheel while a key or button is pressed (which works well for selecting a random game) New Feature: A new "Launch With" option is available for each emulated game in LaunchBox and Big Box that will let you choose an emulator to use on the fly when launching games. This is available via the right-click or Game menu in LaunchBox and via the Game Details menu in Big Box. It can also be hidden in Big Box via the Game Menu options. New Feature: A new "Change ROMs Folder Path for Selected Games" option is available under the Tools menu in LaunchBox that will allow you to batch edit ROM folder paths for when you move your ROM files. Improvement: Massive performance improvements both in general in Big Box as well as with CoverFlow and the wheels Improvement: Steam Banners have been added as an image group supported for LaunchBox and Big Box Improvement: Searching for games has been significantly improved with support for alternate titles from the LaunchBox Games Database as well as better exact matching Improvement: Alternate titles are now used properly when consolidating games and importing games Improvement: Custom themes in Big Box now support custom images and videos for platform categories and playlists Improvement: A new MaxVerticalImageResolutionOverride property has been added to the Big Box CoverFlow control to allow for larger image sizes Improvement: Added a new TotalGameCount property on platforms for binding in Big Box custom themes Improvement: Added a new BannerImagePath property on games for binding in Big Box custom themes Improvement: SharpDX (which interfaces with DirectX) has been updated to the latest version Improvement: Upgraded the included version of VLC to version 2.2.6 Fixed: Occasionally LaunchBox was experiencing unnecessary slowdowns due to threading issues when switching side bar selections or arrange by values Fixed: Connecting and syncing your collection to the LaunchBox Games Database was broken since we converted the website to use HTTPS

That is correct, the game is played in the emulator not in Launchbox/Bigbox.
