  1. Welcome to the Launchbox community. Thanks for sharing your video's with the people here, I am sure a lot of people will find them very useful.
  2. Also to add, just because you can run GTA IV (a nearly 10 year old pc game) doesn't necessarily mean that you can run emulators like pcsx2 at full speed, native games and emulators are a very different thing.
  3. You could try this little program from the downloads section, I'm not sure if it's exactly what you are looking for but it works well and does what it say's.
  4. lol, that's why I just use the windows 10 built in antivirus these day's.
  5. Yeah I also dropped Norton a couple of years back, way to many false positives for my liking.
  6. Cool, if I was you I would add a exclusion to Norton so it doesn't happen again.
  7. You can go into your Launchbox/Updates folder and re-install the newest one there over the top of your current install.
  8. Thank's for looking into it. If you need a test subject to test anything i am happy to do so on my end if it's of any help to you.
  9. Yeah that is the version i am testing the arcade playlist games view with.
  10. Yeah i don't have a playlist platform category, @eatkinola put out a new version last night actually which is supposed to fix your issue i believe.
  11. Yes that is correct, those arcade systems are playlists, but Launchbox created them at import and auto adds them to display in the platforms list's. You can have any playlist appear as a platform you just need to right click it and check the box, but as i said Launchbox does this by default on the Arcade systems.
  12. The MAME ini should be in the root of your MAME folder, but like @DOS76 said if you don't have that and your MAME.exe/MAME64.exe open notepad then something is wrong with your install. Here are a couple of shot's of where my MAME ini is and the option you need to change to 1 to keep the correct aspect ratio.
  13. Hi @eatkinola, sorry for the late reply, it was 2am when you asked the question. My arcade systems are technically playlist's however they show in Launchbox/Bigbox as platforms. This is actually the default way Launchbox sets up Arcade when you import your mame set these days, there is a checkbox that is checked by default to create the Arcade playlist's on import, of course this can be unchecked in the wizard by the user, but is checked on by default so i would imagine that a lot of users have it setup the exact same way as me as most users just use the defaults when importing mame. Here are a couple of shot's that hopefully help you out. If you need anything else don't hesitate to ask as i would like to get this working and it will hopefully stop a lot of users asking the same questions when you release version 1.0. Thank's again for your continued help and patience.
  14. Hi @eatkinola, thank's for the update and the continued support on this. Unfortunately the issue with the Arcade Playlist Game list still persists. I get the correct arcade cabinets while browsing the Arcade Playlists,however when i actually enter one in to the gamelist i still get the default view rather than the arcade cabinet i had on the previous screen. Here are two pics of the Cave playlist to demonstrate.
  15. Yes you can use your license on multiple computers, it's your license so you can use it on any of the pc's "you own". We do of course forbid sharing your license with other people, and anyone caught sharing a license will have that license blocked so that it will no longer work.

  17. It has better compression yes, but you also need more recent hardware in order to play that format correctly, as it is relatively new. I run a i5-3570k and it plays them just fine, but as i said older or less powerful hardware may struggle. I suggest just doing a small file and seeing if it plays OK in vlc.
  18. Ha ha, well that's quicker than re-downloading them.
  19. OK, here is my before and after of James Baker's arcade video, converted from a H.264 mp4 to a H.265 mp4. It nearly halfed the size from 190mb to 108mb.
  20. Yeah you need to check that, as i said i have a preset that auto loads that has all my correct settings including audio.
  21. Hmm that's weird. I am just converting James Baker's Arcade video to HEVC, gonna be another 4 minutes, i will post size comparison here when it is done.
  22. These are the settings that i use personally, but that will be more of a personal preference for yourselves.
  23. Handbrake supports lots of formats, mkv is definitely one of them.
