    Just to check - do we need to run the setup on these packs if we are importing stuff manually (i.e. does it still need to extract)?
  2. Retrofrogg
    Maybe on some of those old "Minerva" CDs

    Hi @Jason, The video is still listed there: Videos\Game & Watch\Theme\Donkey Kong.mp4 I hadn't realised that the video was listed under the "other" tab - I was wondering how to edit the videos. Your question prompted me to delete the video path, and hey presto that solved the problem! So for some reason, this hadn't happened when I deleted the video from the folder. Thanks for your input

    Any rough idea of eta for the last 2? Just wondering whether to import vols 1-3 now or to do them all together, which would be easier.

    Just deleted a video for another game in the same platform, and this time it works as it should.

    Many thanks for testing. I think that LB was probably open when I deleted the video. Interesting that the problem doesn't replicate for you. See screenshot:

    Good questions. It was in LB Next, but I just quit that and opened LB and it was the same there too. I tried closing and opening the game details panel but that didn't help either.

    I have been exiting RA by opening the RA menu (F1) then hitting escape.

    More information about ""
    Yeah this is great, nice and inventive!

    I deleted a video from the videos folder after LB scraped the wrong one. The video disappears from the game details view, but a black space remains where the video used to be. I tried restarting LB but it's still there!

    Not sure if this is a bug. I've noticed that if I run a game in LB Next via Retroarch then quit the game, it returns to LB with Retroarch nowhere to be seen - but it is still running in the process list. If I play a few games this way then multiple instances of Retroarch remains running and the CPU load quickly goes up.

    I've noticed that it happens even when I restart my PC, so maybe it's not just the new builds. Is this expected behaviour? I would have thought that the thumbnail cache would be remembered. I've not changed the size of the thumbnails or anything either.

    Love the humour in this vid!
  14. Retrofrogg
    When a new beta is installed, does it clear the thumbnail cache? I've noticed that my thumbnails again need to regenerate, and wonder if it is because i updated LB with a new beta.

    How do you do the "scan for artwork"?
  16. Retrofrogg
    Any chance of doing one for "electronic handheld games"? There are around 2-300 of such games in the MAME set I believe, which are handheld devices of various shapes and sizes.

    And if anyone is interested in having their MAME games appear as authentic as possible, check out Orionsangel's realistic MAME bezels!

    There seem to be a good number of handheld games in the MAME set. Just as an example - Coleco's "Alien Attack". These handhelds do not seem to get imported into LB when importing the MAME set (probably because they are not "arcade" games). So how do we import these, and what are they scraped as? I don't see a scraper in LB for handhelds (other than Nintendo game & watch, which I believe is a much more limited set). Any help much appreciated!
  19. Retrofrogg
    Yeah those are good but shame they don't run in Retroarch! Or can go fullscreen...

    Just updated LB to the latest buid this evening (8.3 beta 7). I have noticed an issue with metadata scraping - when adding games (or even a single game), LB then says "refreshing local metadata from the launchbox games database..." though seems to get stuck on this. This happens even when adding a single game so I don't think it's a question of not waiting long enough. I have left it going for almost 10 minutes but it doesn't seem to move on. If i press the "cancel" button next to the bar, then nothing happens either. I have to restart LB to get it to stop.

    Hey Orionsangel, it's me, Dan, Retrochan your MAME bezel collaborator I agree with the above, LB Next is a definite step in the right direction!
  22. Retrofrogg
    Thanks dragon. I wasn't asking about Vikings or yours in particular - just any that are available. You mentioned that you used 5 different games, each with its own video recreation - is this for the Game & Watch platform video, or for individual games?
  23. Retrofrogg
    How are the Game & Watch/single handheld games handled in these videos? Is there a video for the Nintendo Game & Watch or is it for all game & watch games? Or is there a video for each? Ideal if it was the latter.

    Yes I completely agree. I would go further and say that even with the boxes, it is too cluttered for my tastes with the fan art as background. I have just he standard black background to make the game boxes/artwork pop. Hence the option to turn off the surrounding boxes for those users that like it clean like me would be much appreciated. And like Munko says, I would appreciate the option to turn off dynamic coloured boxes also.
