Yeah i'm not seeing them, but i only have a free account there.

That depends on the theme, some themes will show a image and a video on the same screen, others will only show the video as a background which would fill the whole screen, some will show a video if its available, but default to a image if a video doesn't exist.

Have manuals been removed from the free emumovies downloads in the wizard? I'm sure they used to be there but i'm not seeing them, are they emumovies premium only now?

Hi and welcome to the comunity. In your launchbox folder should be a video folder and inside that a Platform folder. Name the video the same as the platform and drop it in there.

Yeah that is a unextracted MAME.exe if ever i have seen one.

There was possibly a difference between PAL and NTSC resolutions also.

The mercury versions emulate specific chips that came in the cartridges to add certain functions to games, (think starfox, mario Kart) the standard versions you need to provide those chip dumps yourself. As for the performance, balanced, accuracy they are just that, if you have a powerful system then accurate would be the best version, but it needs a high clocked cpu, balanced is nearly as accurate but uses less cpu, and performance is again less accurate than the other two but uses less cpu than the others.

Ooh, a 16:9 version of that might be nice, with the game view copied to a platform view as well.

Ha ha, I just watched the video and still didn't clock that.

When you imported your mame set you imported everything and let Launchbox create the playlists? If so the games you are looking to add to the playlist may already be imported but were just not added to the playlist for some reason. If the games are not imported at all then import them under arcade as normal, then add to playlist.

Just right click the game you want to add, choose add to playlist, then the playlist you want to add to, or create a new one.

You can always use the report button and the mods would get notifications/emails about it. It sat there a while as I had quite a long lay in this morning, as shown by the fact that you commented from the US before I even got out of bed in the UK.

Yeah agreed, guess The English peeps are just not very well represented on the forums, so the spectrum is under represented. @Lassiveran did do this box art pack that I use in my setup though, although I use 3D boxes for all my systems, so would love to see that 3D box pack from above uploaded as well.

Yeah I don't think they were ever uploaded to the download section, I could certainly use them in my setup

I think I recall that they took out Triforce support and you need to use a older version of Dolphin. More info and a link to a working version Here.

Yep exactly, this can apply in other themes too, so if videos are not displaying for you the same way they do in screenshots, this is always the first port of call.

Sorry I Can't help you with the actual edits as I don't know how to use visual studio either. As for the theme reverting back after you make any edits that is by design, it's a safety feature so that there is always a working theme if something goes wrong wit a custom one Launchbox will simply revert to the default. The way around this is to simply copy and paste the default theme then name it whatever you want and edit that one.

Yeah core overrides will save bezels/overlays. I use bezels myself and that's how I save different ones for different systems.

as I said, \retropi should open the pi, then you can just copy them to your pc over the network.

retro pi does support samba shares, you can just put \\retropi into a explorer window and it will show your pi folder (in a limited way). So yes you could technically keep your roms there and point launchbox at them, but I wouldn't personally, the bandwidth from the pi is awful (it shares the Ethernet with all the usb ports on a single lane) and cart based system roms are so small you may as well keep them local to your launchbox setup.

Tools/options/sidebar and check the show counts button,

Welcome and thanks for the comment. So much a multi platform user that, you have none unless its Linux?

just a cheapo one, 1030 may do what you want.
