It should only need to do it the once, unless you are changing image type or changing image size or the like.
-
That green bar is Launchbox caching the images.
-
If you unzip a theme with 7zip the .dll's are automatically unblocked, and as 7zip is included with Launchbox i assume that is what is used to unzip downloaded themes. As for the other concerns Jason will have to comment there.
-
The ipac is seen as a keyboard i believe, so you need to set the controls in the keyboard section of Bigbox, not the controller section. You may need to use a keyboard to get there initially and then set the keys how you want them.
-
OK, i dont use dosbox so i wont be much help there, but im pretty sure you can not use zipped games in dosbox.
-
OK, your gonna have to explain to me what a TTL game is then, cause in Launchbox it says its breakout.zip.
-
I see its a paddle game, did you exclude paddle games at all? I cant remember if there is a filter for that or not. The rom is just called breakout, so should be easy to find in your romset.

lol, i dont mean any disrespect here, but you are worried about having to name all your images for your specific use case, so you want the creator to do it for you for a use case he doesnt have? After all these are using the Launchbox naming scheme, as they are uploaded to the Launchbox forums, of course Launchbox will accept the MAME naming scheme as well, but the creator/uploader is a Launchbox user and did upload them to the Launchbox forums with the Launchbox naming scheme, he cant really be expected to cater to other naming schemes used by other frontends, when these are hosted on the Launchbox forums and intended for use with this frontend.

More information would be helpful, like what zip format, for what platform and what are the file types in the archive, what emulator, and what is giving the error, Launchbox or the emulator. Just saying "my game doesnt work" wont help people to troubleshoot it.
-
Unfortunately this is not possible currently.
-
What you have in your bigbox image looks correct to me you have to hold button 7 then press button 8 to exit, all this actually does is send the escape key to the emulator, so if the emulator you are testing on doesnt support closing with escape you may need extra steps. What emulator are you testing this on?
-
Thanks for helping with the database. You are correct in that there is a lag, the actual database is updated every 24 hours, so approved content is not immediately available to users. Also Launchbox itself will only look for a new metadata database file every 24 hours also. So if you have already downloaded a new metadata set in Launchbox today, it wont check for anything newer until tomorrow.

Kodi addon for LaunchBox

Any button will exit the video, but only if Bigbox is loaded in the background, if Bigbox is still loading the video cant be skipped until its ready. -
No need to re-import, just change the "scrape as" to Arcade in the section i mentioned, then click on that platform in the sidebar, click on a game then CTRL A to highlite all the games in the platform, then Tools/Update metadata/images, and it will just scrape the selected games.

Kodi addon for LaunchBox
neil9000 replied to CoinTos's topic in Third-Party Applications and Plugins (Released)
You add a folder to Launchbox/Videos called startup and drop a video in there, it will play the video while Bigbox is loading, so you wont see the loading box on the desktop you will see the video playing instead. https://forums.launchbox-app.com/files/category/7-big-box-startup-videos/ -
You should just set the "scrape as" to arcade under Tools/Manage Platforms/Name of Platform.

Use a startup video? -
That is not a standalone theme, its a addon pack for Unified Refried, so you need that first.
