Thanks….but I’m not trying to install a media pack. It’s just a single png I downloaded myself.

I cant seem to add playlist icons (by placing png images in LaunchBox\Images\Platform Icons\Playlists) with the current beta. The icon doesn't appear next to the playlist in Launchbox. The icon name matches the playlist unique name.

Lol, very poetic post. You're right of course, regarding it being impossible to play all of those games and it being more of a "compulsive completionist syndrome". You should head over to the datahoarder subreddit, or hang out in the RomVault discord - you'll see that collecting full sets for the sake of it isn't all that unusual. You can collect a large stamp collection, but you never actually use any of the stamps. Collecting for its own sake is not an unusual hobby. Me, I'm somewhere in the middle; I like to collect full sets, but I don't tend to import a new platform until the existing platforms that I have are "sorted" - i.e. everything is set up properly with the correct artwork, manuals, videos etc. And I play many of the games too

I've noticed recently that after closing Launchbox, a Launchbox process remains active (as per the Windows 11 task manager), This persists even after putting the PC to sleep and waking again. When I try and start Launchbox I then get the message "another instance of LaunchBox or BigBox is already running".

I seem to be getting an error message when trying to log in to Epic Games with the latest beta:

Well, I got it working in the meantime with some help of Viking and Neil on the Discord. I had to go to Win11 settings/system/optional features, and then remove the existing Windows Media Player legacy edition. I then had to reinstall it from the same window, and once fully reinstalled, everything worked! So hopefully that helps others.

I installed the K-Lite Codec pack - it doesn't seem to make any difference; videos still don't play now.

Videos are no longer playing for me in the latest beta? The video thumbnail appears in the game carousel, but the video doesn't auto-play as usual. If I press play then nothing happens. There is no sound either. Double-clicking maximises the video but it still doens't play - I just see a black screen.

Yeah, Launchbox is still hanging. Just now it became unresonsive for about 40 seconds before working again.

Seem to be getting some slowdowns in this latest beta. Hangs for up to 10 seconds sometimes when switching between platforms. Sometimes it hangs for longer. Didn't happen in the previous version. Edit: A restart of LB seems to have fixed it, for now. I'll keep an eye on it.

Hi @Mock - same! It would be really nice to know what had changed/fixed it - in particular so we know if it ever comes back in the future! But in the meantime I'm enjoying stutter-free box viewing
