It needs to do so as its sending a key press to the emulator. That key press can not be sent if the emulator window does not have focus.

Yes, keyboard automation works the same way as controller automation, you need to use two keys, one as a hold and another as a exit.

Retroarch is setup by default using the default save/load keys.If you need to change the keys as you have already in the emulator just go to Tools/Manage/Emulators/Retroarch and click the Pause Screen tab, then the relevant tab inside that.

Same, the quick menu is only available with a core loaded, F1 will put you in there and that is where you can adjust controls or core settings under the "options" section in that quick menu, but you can then go back a layer to the main UI menu also.

F1 while in a game will drop you straight into the quick menu.

The controls section of retroarch havent changed in a long time, so older guides are still fine. You need to set them first without a game or core loaded in the main interface by going to Settings/Input/User 1 binds and setting your controls there. These will be the default controls across the UI and most cores. Then you can load a game in the core you want to change the buttons in, and this time instead of going to the main settings you use the Quick Menu/Controls section this will change the controls for just the loaded core or game, depending on how you save it as in the same menu will be a "Save Core Remap" and a "Save Game Remap", use the one you want in that case.

There is no option for RAM allocation. There did used to be in the old UI, but that is not needed now with the new framework. It's all handled dynamically now.

No you are fine, you just dont have any videos as yet. They are not included in theme downloads as that would make themes absolutely huge downloads, and there are many different styles of platform videos so its up to you to source the the style of videos you want to use.

In the video downloader it will automatically check the boxes for platforms you do not have videos for. You will be able to select the video type you want via the dropdown on each platform. Or select a global video style via the dropdown at the bottom of the screen. You can also click the preview button to stream the video to see what it is like before you download it.

Yes that is correct, you need a fullscreen Platform video, these shots below are fullscreen videos, they are not artwork with a small video window, the whole screen is a video.

You need some platform videos for the platforms screen, that is why you have a black background it's designed to play videos of the various platforms when you sit on one. Videos are not included with themes, but can be downloaded in Launchbox. Just got to Tools/Download platform/Playlist Videos.

Its Retroarch, so the cores are in the core folder.

Controller automation will exit the game as soon as you use it, rather than having to close the pause screen then firing the close command. So the same exit with automation that has been there for years now, set a combo and use it rather than gong into a screen you dont need to.

Try asking in this thread for the project, but yes its probably down to a naming issue, i believe they use no-intro as there base for naming.

Thats a strange issue for sure and i dont have a solution for it as i havent seen that before, only thing i can suggest is making sure all your drivers are up to date including .NET. As for running as admin that is not advised as it can and probably will effect emulators launching, as Launchbox has elevated privileges, any emulator that is installed will also need them.

They are available from the same download link.

Cache your clear logos in options/image cache/force populate.

If you tried to reinstall from a update and have no games then you installed to the wrong location. You probably now have a new Launchbox folder inside your normal launchbox folder.

This option is not currently available when Bigbox is locked.

Its in the automation section like normal.

Because you do not know what is included if it is not from the official site. Also links to roms are not allowed here so i have removed your link in the previous post.

There is no link, just open Launchbox and go to Tools/Options/Updates and enable beta updates and disable background download. Close and re-open Launchbox for the update prompt.

I am on a 4K display with 200% scaling and both retroarch and the pause screens are working just fine for me. So it could be that the source of your problem lays elsewhere.
