  1. @Merovingio Make sure you have ffmpeg.exe in the plugin folder (it should ask you to download it). If that doesn't help I think you should just resort back to using the regular version of the plugin.
  2. @maikeru1986 Thanks for the great plugin, can't live with out it I made an update from your source with some QoL changes, I hope you don't mind! (forgot to include yt-dlp in my former post) Changed so that yt-dlp now handles searching for video sections (no need to download full video anymore) Due to the change above, you can get footage of any hour-long "long play"/"let's play" videos in just a fraction of the time. Removed "EndTime" and introduced "Duration" in its place Some naming scheme changes and refactoring Vidsnap_Scraper_0.4.8.zip Vidsnap-Scraper-0.4.8-source.zip
  3. Sorry for the inconvenience, it's been tested a lot on my side (in fact I use it daily). The problem seem to be that yt-dlp.exe wasn't included.
  4. So it turns out that I'm a bit of an idiot, I didn't realize the images used base url, eg: "https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/images/image_example.jpg" (not constructed with database id). I'm sorry for bothering you with this, thanks for your help ?
  5. Hi Jason I'm currently building a PS3 PKG-maker-inteface in python for creating PSP/PSX/PS2 ISO-file shortcuts to the XMB menu of the PS3. Anyway, when these installments show on the main menu/XMB I want to to include the meta-data of the game, and some game art. Since I have a life-time license for this superb software I thought "hey, why can't I use the metadata launchbox use!", so I looked into the 200MB metadata.xml. I think that your metadata seem really nicely structured compared many others I looked at and I'd love to integrate with it. Problem is that I can't really use the DatabaseIds from the xml to construct the image-links since the IDs doesn't match the website. Suggestion (I totally understand if this is too much work): A) I guess The metadata.xml's "Game"-element would need an additional field like "LaunchBoxId" that corresponds to the website. or B) A separate metadata dump could be done purely based on the website This is my project if someone is interested. Jason, I do appreciate you taking your time responding, thanks mate!
  6. Hi Jason. Thank you for the reply. If you don't mind me asking, how do I go about looking up a "relic id" on the website (maybe I missed some kind of mapping db between these)? Thank you!
  7. Hi. Do you know why the databaseid are different between https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/ and what you get from the downloadable archive provided http://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/Metadata.zip?
  8. @Jason Carr i just wanted to say thank you to you and the team! I've waited since February to check in if things changed regarding performance improvements. Not only does my PC perform perfectly in Cover Flow now, you also had the time to implement the "Wall View", I can describe how happy I am staying along not refunding my life license! This really made my weekend, I can finally start making my "mortal kombat-select-menu-theme"!
  9. +1 for the grid view!!! I think this issue has a good summation on a higher level: https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/2102/new-view-in-bigbox-grid
  10. Hi! Just to clarify, increasing the memory in Launchbox helps performance in Big Box? I read earlier that memory-slider and BB are not correlated, I have mine set a 2500MB at the moment. @DOS76 It seems like running BB in 4K takes a significant performance hit. I tried lowering the resolution i windows to 1080p and it gave me better performance on the platform wheel and coverflow. Is there any option to force BB to 1080p instead of native res? Still I can game in 4K medium settings @60fps+ so there is something that isn't quite right with BB performance wise.
  11. Hi buddy! I'm sure there will come a solution for this (when a sufficient amount of people have answered the survey), thank you for understanding! I'd much rather just wait, since the potential of this software is much to great to throw away. I know you guys are doing your best to move performance forward so I'll keep an eye on this thread.
  12. Thank you, I did test the things listed earlier, unfortunately my performance is still very low. Before continuing I'd like to say that really like the community and what you do here, and I don't want to come off rude in any way. I really like the idea of this software so I bought a life time license (which ofc doesn't make me feel entitled or better than anyone else), but since I can't use it in this state it feels a bit dis encouraging and frustrating. What do I do now? I'm very happy with my system when playing demanding games and running benchmarks, so it doesn't seem to be any performance problems in my setup. Could it be that I'm running my environment on a 4K monitor and BigBox somehow doesn't like that? I have no other monitor to test. Thanks for helping me.
  13. Hi! Any news on this subject? I'm on the latest beta 7.7-beta8 and it's still very laggy.
  14. @Kevin_Flynn It seem like a proposal for this is already up on bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/2102/new-view-in-bigbox-grid I guess I could share our two cents in comments as well.
  15. Oh, of course! /facepalm Thanks for your help and the list, I'll make sure to send a request right away.
  16. Hi, Kevin. Thanks for replying to my post. I fully agree with your list of functionality! I'm a bit thick in my head today, but how do I officially make this into an official request? I can see a message in the Features section saying "Please use the "Send Feedback" link in the header for feature requests", not sure what that means.
  17. Hi everyone. I recently decided buy a forever license for launchbox since it seems to have a bright future ahead, especially with these awesome devs and contributing community! I wonder if it would be possible to make a "grid view" (steam big picture mode style) to present the systems. I'd like to build something more "arcady" for my system selection screen, something like a fighting game character selection screen. The standard wheel views would of course be much more handy for the game selection inside. I'd love to have some technical input on this, or some hints! Thanks!
  18. Hi Davy! I have two questions: How did you achieve this "grid view" and would you mind sharing your theme for bigbox? I'd like to make a similar view for the system view as well as the game view =) Thanks! EDIT: ohh I see, this is not BB it's launchbox. My bad! (nice work!)
  19. Same problem here. I have no idea what to do. Specs: GTX 970 intel i5 6600K 16GB DDR4 Sandisk 940GB SSD Windows 10 64bit
  20. Interesting, I'm at the latest beta and I have the same issue with my 6600K + GTX 970 + SSD (Win10). The coverflow is very slow for me too, tried turning everything off regarding transitions and animations. I've also added bigbox to Nvidia Control Panel applications -> high performance, no luck.
