[Your system is running out of memory and Launchbox cannot continue.]

Hiya, we have a dedicated troubleshooting guide for this specific error. There isn't a perfect fix for it just but it walks through how to debug it and disable a setting that should temporarily address it for you: 

- "Out of Memory" error after resuming from hibernation in LaunchBox or Big Box?

Thanks for that! Will try some of the workarounds. But still no news since last year?

[Your system is running out of memory and Launchbox cannot continue.]

Hey! I'm getting this error quite often now. It's been an issue probably over a year, and I think the first time it happened was in a beta, so I reported in i a beta thread, but we never really got the bottom.

How can I help track the issue down?

Memory usage is often around 80 % with 16GB RAM.

It seems to happen after the PC has been suspended.

I have hybrid sleep enabled in Windows 11.

LB Version : 13.28-beta 5 (but it has happened at least for a year I think)

Windows 11 25H2

RAM: 16GB

I've enabled debug logging to collect some logs.

[Out of Memory Error]

After returning from sleep.

[Out of Memory Error]

I'm still getting this, can I help nail the issue down somehow?

 

[LaunchBox 13.22 - Beta Thread]

Thanks for the new beta! I'm still having the running out of memory error though.

 

[LaunchBox 13.21 - Beta Thread]

Regarding the video player discussion that's been lately.

Would it be possible to use this?

Interesting that this has no replies.

Shaderglass has been heavily updated this past couple of months, allowing import of any .slang shader, and most of Retroarchs shader library is in there by default.

It would be awesome to have it auto launch on specific emulator / games.

Potentially the same issue. The issue is the different levels of sleep that Windows machines can go into. Do you know how long your computer was asleep for before you woke it up and ran into this issue. Do you also know what settings you have for which type of sleep your computer goes into. Also, are you running this on a laptop or desktop?

 

It think it might have been overnight this time. I use Hybrid Sleep

I have a desktop.

[LaunchBox 13.21 - Beta Thread]

Hey! I'm still getting this error after waking up the computer from sleep.

Not sure if it's the same error as before?

 

[LaunchBox 13.16 - Beta Thread]

Getting a crash after just leaving LB for a while.

If it's talking about Xbox or Epic you can turn off the auto import via the settings with LB closed to get around that.

Ok, how do I turn that off with LB closed?

Seems like beta 3 manage to download in the background, installed it now. 

Doesn't seem to crash now! 

Thanks!

Where can I download the latest beta?

@e2zippo This is a video driver issue. This basically means Direct X was called to do something and failed. Typically updating your video driver and restarting your computer will correct the issue.

Yeah, seems to work now after a reboot, thanks!

I'm not getting a crash when launching BB, but I just get a black screen, seem to be stuck on the intro video.

Had to kill the process, and after that my mouse pointer was gone,  had to navigate to my mouse settings and force a change to see it again.

That background uses your background image priorities to pick what image is there. Go to Tools > Options > Image Priorities > Background Priorities and change your settings there appropriately.

Thanks, default settings seems to be sufficient

Awesome theme! Is there any way to change the background image to use existing banners instead of the cover?

Yeah something like that could be helpful. Completely unrelated but you may want to remove the Neon Deluxe Arcade Startup theme from your folder (or use the manager to uninstall it). Startup themes go in an entirely different folder and if you accidently try to use it as the main theme you are going to run into issues down the road. Also on an unrelated side note, you don't have any of MY themes downloaded... what gives!? (lol jk)

Not sure how the Neon Deluxe Arcade Startup ended up in there, I've removed it

Not sure what you mean, I'm using your theme

 

[12.10 Beta Testing]

Hey! Love the addition to be able to manage LB themes directly from within the application!

A small UI update (on the left bar) to be able to see which theme is in use right now would be a nice addition.

Perhaps a green checkbox or something similar?

I know you can see which theme is the current one by highlighting it, but it would make more sense to see it on the left side.

Am I making sense?

[12.2 Beta Testing]

I just noticed that when using LB to update Retroarch, it automatically downloads all the cores.

I'm only using like 10 cores, and I don't want the other ones.

It think the default behavior should be to update only existing cores.

When you want to download a new core you should do it through RA instead.
And did the option to just update the cores disappear?

Also I'm getting this in the latest beta: 

Thanks for the awesome work guys!

Closer to the first part of the year there was a discussion and this sort of integration was deemed possible. So we added it to the summer Community Poll and it ended up being popular with you guys.

For this first phase of the integration, we chose to focus on stability of the feature, and the stable version is as good as it gets. But it's good to know that you would be interested in a nightly option and we will keep that in mind for future phases.

Awesome, this is really the best way to update RA to and it's cores do date, appreciate the work!
