Was your license a yearly or forever one? Have you messed with the license file at all?

That is a settings issue, close Launchbox and go to the Launchbox/Data folder and delete the settings.xml, or alternatively, with Launchbox still closed unzip a backup from Launchbox/Backups and replace the settings.xml with the older one.

Do you have a paid subscription to emumovies and did you enter those login details into Launchbox?

Why do you have two old and non official romsets in the first place? All games in those two sets are in the normal mame romset, so you are already complicating matters somewhat. Just get the latest mame romset and matching emulator version or retroarch core and save yourself the hassle of managing two old, and unofficial romsets. As for your actual question, i think the only way to do that from where you currently are is with a playlist, so you would still have the original platforms as well. The only other way is to delete and re-import both sets to the same platform, but specifying different emulators in the import wizard. Seriously though, just get the latest mame romset and save yourself some headaches.

Im gonna guess you installed into a Launchbox folder inside of your Launchbox folder rather than over the top. If the path was D:Launchbox, you would install to D:.

They contain thousands and thousands of roms, you really think the person who put that together got the permissions of every game publisher in the world to sell their product, for virtually nothing, especially from the likes of lawyer and sue heavy Nintendo who shutdown websites allowing free downloads of roms, let alone people selling them for profit. This really is no different than you buying a hard drive full up with all the Hollywood movies from 2021, or every album released last year, it's simply copyright theft, in fact it is worse for the seller as they are making money from other peoples copyrighted materials, highly, highly illegal, and we, as a legitimate business want nothing to do with those shady practices i'm afraid.

I'm sorry but we do not provide any support for illegally sold hard drives with pirated Launchbox licenses on them, You will have to talk to the person who sold you your illegal product.

You need to switch the view, if you were not using a wall view on your previous theme, then you wont be on one now either. Either change it in the options, or set a button to "change view" and switch it on the fly.

I concur, while great as a integrated solution, even a £100 GT1030 would out perform that. I have a somewhat similar setup to you, Ryzen 7 3700X, 32GB of 3000Mhz RAM, OS on a Samsung 970 NVME SSD, however i also have a RTX 2080 Super dedicated GPU. Check that your windows refresh is set to 60Hz and not say 30Hz or something, i have seen that be the problem a lot.

Duckstation in Retroarch works great, did you mess with settings or run it stock, also what are your PC specs, maybe you tried pushing it too far? Personally i use the Duckstation core and un it at 8X resolution scaling, and its great.

I havent updated my epic in a few weeks, so none of those free games are added yet, so running the importer and they all show up fine for me including the three Tomb Raiders, so not sure what is up with it on your end.

Its not a platform though, its a addon for one platform to allow you to play another platform, both of which are in our database, but in reality, this is simply Gameboy and nothing more than that, If people cared that much there must be image packs out there for these, which could be easily added to Launchbox. At the end of the day though Super Gameboy is simply Gameboy, just being run on other hardware, it's really no different to running Gamecube games on a Wii, and i dont see people requesting a "Nintendo Gamecube on Nintendo Wii" platform.

If i had to guess, you have your Retroarch entry in Launchbox set to unzip roms before loading, that will break Neo Geo as all arcade systems need the zips to stay that way and not be unzipped.

Pretty sure there are options in the settings to prefer audio over the audio from a video, or something like that, yeah just looked and there is.

Its the same setting, all media has paths set in Launchbox, that carry over to Bigbox, like images, videos etc, music is no different. Unless a bug has crept in somewhere, but i dont use any music in my setup so cant test that.

Media must match the file name, or the name of the game in Launchbox, either will work, but if it doesn't match either, then yeah it wont be able to be matched to the game for obvious regions.

FBA doesnt use a MAME romset, it uses it's own FBA romset, so you may well run into a ton of games that do not work cause they are not designed for FBA.

Thats not available in the Android version though, which is where this post is, you just get the option to import a folder on Android, and all files in that folder are pulled in.

Yes, the PC and Android versions are separate and require separate licenses if you want to add more than 100 games to your library. LaunchBox for Android - Purchase a License (launchbox-app.com)

That's a error cause your romset doesn't match the version the core is expecting, that game obviously had a file change at some point and that file isn't in your different version romset.

Also MAME only uses the CPU, and yours is a Laptop chip at only 2.4Ghz that's actually quite slow when compared to a desktop CPU that these days are likely to be around 4Ghz at least, so that could also be a issue when trying to run multiple simultaneous programs.

If all your backups are also corrupted then you can simply close Launchbox and delete the settings.xml, this however, will unfortunately put your Launchbox back to default settings, so you may need to adjust some settings again.

I think its one of the videos from this theme.

Yeah as stated Launchbox will run pretty much any file type as long as there is a program that will run said files from a command line interface, be aware though that our database is only for games, so you will have pretty bare "systems" when importing non game files, i.e. no metadata or images at all unless manually sourced and added yourself.

Just a suggestion to look at, but do you have your HDD's set to power down to save power when not in use? Just wondering as you say it happens if Launchbox has been open a while, maybe your HDD has parked and needs to spin up again, causing the delay.
