@vikingI tried this but it did not work, here is a pic of the new line created, I might have done it wrong so please correct me if so

Looks like you're halfway there -- you defined your new platform category in Ao.Bigbox.Themer.v3_9_7a.dll.config.

Next, you need to add this platform category to Ao.Bigbox.Themer.v3_9_7a-Colors.dll.config, e.g.:

<add key="Category.MICROSOFT_WINDOWS" value="(hex color code of your choice)" />

The same process is used to define colors for platforms and playlists: (1) make sure your named category, platform, or playlist has a mapping in the main assembly configuration file, then (2) make sure there is a color for this mapping defined int the Colors config file.

Hmm. There may be a conflict between the Windows "Category" and the Windows "Platform". @eatkinola What do you think ?
You can do some tests:
Open this file with a test editor :
   \LaunchBox\Themes\Colorful - xxx\Plugins\Ao.Bigbox.Themer.v3_9_7a\AssemblyConfig\ Ao.Bigbox.Themer.v3_9_7a.dll.config
Respect the form well. Change only "Value", not "Key".
Line 57, You will find the Windows Platform. But you need a category. Can you try adding a new line in the category section? Tell me if it works.

@viking @kidshoalin - Sounds like good troubleshooting advice, viking. Mapping the platforms to colors requires that Ao.Bigbox.Themer.v3_9_7a.dll.config file. There is no way to guess how a user would have setup and named their platforms and categories, hence the need for an editable configuration file.

 @eatkinola are you aware of any known issues with the plug-in and video files being held outside of main launch box directory?

The plugin does not currently support that, but I'll work on a fix.
