Yes, I understand that the XML files are the untouched. I was clarifying if changes to those files would still be reflected on the database, which I assumed it wouldn't.

Thanks, I just wasn't sure if they became obsolete or not.

After moving to a database, are all data changes required to go through the front-end? What happens to our old method of updating via XML files in the data folder?

Launched from a network path. Didn't get in 13.18. In beta 3, I couldn't even launch LaunchBox. In beta 4, I can navigate but get while in BigBox and navigating/exiting.

It is possible that this issue is unrelated to Launchbox. However, I have been experiencing difficulties updating Launchbox hosted on my local network via the auto-downloader. Specifically, when attempting to install version 13.8, the installation process stops midway and fails to save the Metadata/Metadata.xml file. A similar issue occurred with version 13.7, but with a different file. On the other hand, when I download the installer directly from the Launchbox website, the installation process completes successfully. Has anyone else encountered anything similar?

Hi @faeran Is it possible to have a Carousel Priority setting to specify the type of images and order to appear? I may not want the same screenshot / background priorities, i.e. I may want fanart to appear in the backdrop but I do not want it on the carousel itself.

There's also a bug. It's displaying Screenshot - Gameplay twice. It appears on every platform and every game. Edit: This only occurs when I set my background priority as Screenshot - Gameplay. If I de-select background priorities they also go missing from selection, I'm not sure if that is intended or not. Edit #2: Second image without any background priorities.

I never used them and I prefer the default prior to this beta. It's difficult to read any of the text or ratings that's over the image as there is far too much going on. When compared to Neptune where the content is below the image/fanart.

Is it possible to disable the image background on the Game Details? This is a significant downgrade and a poor copy of the Neptune/Lambda theme.

I'm super excited for this. Absolutely stunning work and attention to detail.

Why not use Plex? It's free, auto-scraps, and has features specific to movies and tv shows. You can continue watching your media from one device to another.

You compared GOG Galaxy and Launchbox, and I use them both (for modern vs retro games). The only difference is that rather than load the game details on the right-hand panel, GOG opens it on the main screen and has a back button to return to the previous screen. "a complete GUI overhaul" is uncalled for. The performance of GOG Galaxy is significantly faster - this could because of the way the assets are optimized and not a fault of the Launchbox as we provide the assets ourselves and these can vary in size... or because I have Launchbox/Bigbox hosted on the network, haha.

Hey @RULLUR - I've encountered this while my images/videos were hosted on a network attached storage but not while on a dedicated hard drive. It could be the latency that is causing this or lack of folder indexing. Second, I was able to minimize this on the network by removing media for roms I do not have. For example, XBOX 360 has over 1,300 games. I'd only keep the media for the 146 I'm interested in playing - I haven't encountered it since.

@azuravian Any chance you could do the New Pokemon Snap and Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition?

I've got images (more specifically, gameplay) that I've added myself and have included multiple images per game. I added a suffix of "-02" and "-03" and so on; however, I noticed it does not pick up the image if it has a "-" elsewhere in the filename. For example, Crash Team Racing - Nitro-Fueled-02.jpg - DOES NOT WORK Crash Team Racing - Nitro-Fueled (2).jpg - WORKS Mario Kart 8 Deluxe-01.jpg - WORKS Mario Kart 8 Deluxe-02.jpg - WORKS

Hey @Swaf If you have it, I'd love if you could share: Cadence of Hyrule Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition Luigi's Mansion 3 Mario + Rabbids Kindom battle New Pokemon Snap

Reinstall Launchbox on top of itself. Windows updates is known to remove drivers, i.e. DirectX. This will not remove any of your settings.

I don't see a dedicated GPU. I could be wrong, but I don't believe the Vega 11 is rated for 4K. Set your resolution to 1080p and see if it's that. A lot of times you need to adjust the response time on your monitor as well, i.e. fast mode.
