Well, it's not hard to convert those (horribly formatted) xml files to launchbox format: However it's just not worth it to convert it 1:1 since alot of what launchbox is asking for is missing and theres no way to get the launchbox id to access the graphics and other metadata. What i could do, is generate a folder structure from the xml files which you could then import into launchbox via the import wizard, that would then also get the correct id's from launchbox database and scrape everything automatically.

It's probably not bigbox, more likely the emulator you are using. BigBox uses the xml files launchbox generates... so if it works in launchbox, it should work in bigbox too. I had the same issue with retroarch i think. All my roms are on my NAS in Z:\Roms\Platforms\romfilename.* What you can do to test if the correct path for the roms is used, is to make a simple batchfile with this content: @echo off echo Command: %1 pause Put this batchfile as the emulator executable and it will show you the whole command launchbox / bigbox used. Then you can go from there

@Opaklopper OK, danke!

Who translated "Views" under Options in BigBox to "Aufrufe" in german? The correct translation would be "Ansichten". view = Ansicht views = Ansichten Aufruf = invocation Aufrufe = invocations

Yeah finally. Thanks

So after annoying Jason and probably everyone else via E-Mail a while ago, i finally managed to purchase my lb-license via bitcoin. As i'm located in germany and don't have, nor do i want a credit card, i was out of luck with the current payment system and i'm not a fan of bitcoin tbh. But since that was my only option, i finally verified my account to a bitcoin shop (send in ID front /back, telephone verification, etc ARGH...), then i had to verify my account again to my bank for giropay since that was the only decent payment option the bitcoin shop had (WHY NO PAYPAL, WHY DOESN'T ANYONE OFFER PAYPAL?! ) Anyway, so after getting through this mess, i opened a bitcoin wallet and transferred 50,- € in btc to it. So now i could buy launchbox, right? NOPE! Sign in to stripe, scan the code, INSUFFICENT FUNDS... WTF? $ < € so it should have worked. My luck: BTC price dropped just as i was to make the purchase and my funds + transaction fee then exceeded the cash in my bitcoin wallet ... FML So i put up another 30,- € (minimum amount allowed!) to my bitcoin wallet and FINALLY purchased launchbox. And now i have about +- 27,77 € in my bitcoin wallet that i can hopefully sell again O_o Stripe Sucks, Bitcoin sucks, giropay sucks and transaction fees suck. But i finally have my launchbox license which is great. Sorry for the wall of text but this was way more complicated than it should be.

I've followed your tutorial yesterday... it took a while to set everything up but the result was worth it.
