[Suggestion: Launchbox Remote with Phone or Tablet]

I think it would be really cool if something like this would be implemented in Launchbox. Basically a remote for launching, pausing, searching, saving games via android app phone or tablet. Just like somebody created for hyperspin. Neat idea thought I would share for brainstorming. Wouldn't know where to start to add something like this. Here is the hyperspin website for the app. https://hyperspin-fe.com/files/file/11303-hyperremote/ I've used this in my cab before switching to launchbox. Let me know what your guys thoughts are!

[Your List of Small Things]

- Lordmonkus items #2 and #3 are HUGE ones for me personally. #3 is probably my NUMBER 1 wish. 

- Lordmonkus item #4

- my biggest wish: i want to drag and drop pc game exe or shortcuts and roms to the platform pane that is displayed and have those imported to that platform with default emulator (for non PC games) and my preset import settings (from Lordmonkus #3) without asking or prompting me with anything. just do it.

- A Bigbox setting (or enhancement to existing lock setting) that doesn't let you get out of the platform and game wheels other than to unlock. so not even be able to change the platform view.

- A Bigbox "light" setting for lower power computers. So, just being able to enable a low power computer settings would automatically set all BB settings best for a lower power computer, but still look good enough to want to use BB. This one isn't big for me right now (might be later), but it seems like a LOT of people would benefit.

- launch game with any chosen emulator on the fly

- in Launchbox, a simple Loading... splash while games unzip

- drag and drop a video or box art file on top of the game icon in LB, even if one already exists and make it the primary. drag and drop a platform video on top of the platform in LB

- Platform level ahk tab

- right click game 'open video folder' option in LB

- not showing repeating names inside the BB game wheel when there is only like one to a few in there 

- Hide/Unhide any platform

- in LB, let the Search filter box work with regular expression type of searches. i often want this word in the name but not that word. so that might be like:  soccer -fifa  (this would include games with soccer in the name but not if fifa is in the name). and be able to use: and, or, etc

 

This! This ability would be great to have for multi controller sets!

[Same emulator for different controller layout]

Thats what I was thinking but it seems like a lot of configuring. Hopefully switching between emulators from big box mode will be implemented in the future!

[Same emulator for different controller layout]

How do I incorporate that in big box and is there an option to switch between the same emulators in big box mode??

[Same emulator for different controller layout]

Man so maybe installing two of the same emulator and labeling one for controllers and the other for arcade?

[Same emulator for different controller layout]

I didn't see this on the forums or anywhere on the web. Is there a way where you can have the same emulator and have a  different control setup. What I want to do is have a an emulator like dolphin for example and have a control setup for 4 arcade sticks then 4 wireless xbox controllers where you can change seamlessly. Everyone either uses the controllers or the arcade sticks. I'm running Demul, Dolphin, Retroarch, Cemu, Pcx, and pcx2. Thanks!
