I see it was discussed a bit in the beta thread for this version, but I'd like to add that I think forcing LB to WMP (with the k-lite codecs) wasn't thought through enough. Settings should have been left as the user configured it. A portable install of whatever new media player the devs choose should be included with all plugins / codecs included in a thirdparty/plugins folder. This avoids the user having to install additional software, reconfigure their LB if the videos stop working etc. I've added both MPC-BE and Foobar to my installation as emulators for the different functionality they offer. It would be a welcome addition if we can set these self-installed players as the player of choice for the FB/BB frontend in options - video playback.

Any help, please?

I want to use VLC (as an emulator) to play my karaoke files. What happens is that when I add a song (just the mp3), it adds it fine with both the Game Music Path and ROM file fields populated with the .mp3. When I then copy the .cdg file into the same folder as the .mp3, the Game Music Path is updated to point to the .cdg file. What this causes is a little black window to pop up when clicking on any of the added songs. They still work, but this little window is quite annoying. If I manually edit the added song and change Game Music Path back to point to the .mp3, this does not happen. Any advice?

A lot of us remember the days of .MOD, .S3M, .XM, .TI files. I still have a bunch of songs from the mid 90's! Here if you don't know what I'm talking about. I was wondering whether there's a scraper out there for these? The original filenames are mostly all caps and always in 8.3 format. Not very descriptive. Also, what would be the best way to add these? What I've done for now is create a platform, imported all the files as roms with Foobar2000 as the emulator. This allows me to play the song with a double-click and stare at the beautiful patterns. I then copied the same files into the \music\platform folder. Now whenever I select a song in LB, it plays as well (how does it do this btw? Is it compatible with all these formats?). It works but doesn't look nice without artwork, descriptions etc. I wish I could set this platform to list view and keep the rest on image view Looking forward to your feedback!

Really looking good!
