  1. While not a beta issue (it was a server-side issue), run Tools > Download > Force Update Games Database Metadata. Then run the same import again.
  2. While not a beta issue, EmuMovies API has gone down and they have been notified. We will need to wait for them to kick their server.
  3. Beta 2 is out with the following changes: New Feature: You can now bulk-update all your emulators at once using the new "Update All" button in the Manage Emulators window New Feature: Star ratings can now be updated in bulk using the Bulk Edit wizard New Feature: You can now choose whether to delete associated media files when removing games, with a new checkbox and safer file handling New Feature: The Themes & Media Pack Manager now includes an "Open Folder" button to quickly access installed files in Explorer Improvement: Region priority logic for game images has been improved to better match your region settings, especially when multiple regions are listed Improvement: The Beta Spotlight window now includes a "Request Feature" button to make it easier to send us your ideas (update to beta 1) Improvement: The Browse button in Platform Documents is now disabled until a platform name is entered (update to beta 1)
  4. Fixed up and should be back to normal.
  5. Deletion requests are taken more seriously these days as it causes huge issues with linked games in LaunchBox. There's now a tier 2 moderation process that every deletion request needs to go through, and your deletion requests are most likely sitting in there. No need to resubmit. We'll look into the platform changing issue, although that also has similar linking ramifications as deletions, so it's possible they'll also enter into tier 2 moderation as well.
  6. Thanks for the report. We'll have this fixed up today.
  7. I'm not seeing this with a basic No-Intro or TOSEC sets. Which import method did you use? Also can you double check the name of those 3 files in your screenshot. let me know the exact file name, including the extension. I'm also not seeing this happen after testing. Can you give me some exact file names that you are seeing this with. Also can you tell me which import method(s) you are using that you see duplicated games on the final page even when Force import duplicate games is unchecked?
  8. Hi everyone, LaunchBox for Android 1.21 beta has started, and we have a number of new features and improvements (with more to come) that we could use help testing. Game Progress Tracking has finally made its way over to Android, complete with manual controls, automation rules, and full customization. We have also added a new NAS Management section for users with networked game libraries, and we are continuing to improve performance and fix bugs across the board. If you are able to test this build, here’s what we would love your feedback on: Game Progress Tracking – Manual Updates From any game's menu, tap Progress to change its progress state. Try selecting one of the default values, then try again after customizing your progress states. You can customize them by going to Options > Game Progress Organization. Try creating a new category or value, assigning it to a game, and restarting the app to confirm it sticks. Game Progress Automation – Rule Behavior Go to Options > Game Progress Automation and test the automation system. There are two default rules: Games played for over 30 minutes move to Active / In Progress Games not played for 30 days move to Active / Paused Try customizing the time values and the target progress states. You can also disable automation entirely and confirm that game progress is no longer updated automatically. NAS Management – IP Repair and Guest Access If you have imported games from a network share (SMB), a new NAS Management page will be nice to test under Options. You can test features like: Scanning for updated IP addresses Manually updating an IP address Adjusting saved credentials or switching to a Guest account Let us know if all your networked games launch correctly after making changes. Loading Page Performance Startup times should now be noticeably faster for large game libraries. For example, a library of 5000 to 8000 games should see about a 60% improvement in startup speed compared to previous versions. Sorting and Filter Behavior Sorting issues should now be resolved. Try different sorting options and filters across multiple views and confirm that games are being sorted correctly in all cases. Beta 1 Changelog Game Progress Tracking has arrived on Android, giving you full control to manually update your game's progress status right from the game menu Added a new Game Progress Automation page that can automatically update a game's progress based on custom rules you define Added a new Game Progress Organization page with drag and drop support to reorder or customize your progress states using defaults or your own values Added a new NAS Management page under Options where you can view your mapped drives, check their connection status, and repair broken links by scanning or updating the IP address Improved performance on the loading page to reduce wait times for large game libraries Fixed an issue where the Banner Filter view could jump or shift when the list was shorter than the device width on newer versions of Android Fixed an issue where sorting games did not always arrange them in the correct order Known Issues Beta 1 You can delete Categories and Values from the Game Progress Organization section right now when you shouldn't. If a game is using one of those values, deletion should not be allowed. This will be fixed in Beta 2 Game Progress Automation for moving games to Active / Paused after a number of days only works under specific conditions. A startup check to apply this more broadly is planned for Beta 2 Thanks all. Every beta tester helps shape the future of LaunchBox for Android. Your testing and feedback make all the difference.
  9. Here's a document that talks about how to add a custom emulator, however, if there is an emulator that we should be added to our long list of emulators, let us know and we'll add it if we can for the next release. https://feedback.launchbox.gg/en/help/articles/7096169
  10. While not specific to the beta, Joe was right in that what you are seeing is you applied the Colorful theme, and that theme does not have a custom view for the Game Discovery Center, and when a custom theme doesn't have a specific view, it falls back to the Default. I'm guessing you'll want to use the system menu to switch to either the Platform or Platform Categories section, as they are the most popular, and Colorful does have a custom theme for those views.
  11. Both are good options. We'll see what we can do for beta 2.
  12. Type in a name first and you should be good.

    It's possible you just need to turn off background video playback under: Options > Videos > Use Game Background Videos... and Use Platform Background VIdeos... Not sure which marquee you are talking about, but if you are referencing the one on the virtual cab, pretty sure platform views don't change, but game views should have a set of fallbacks that should display something specific to the game.
  14. The good news is that the feedback link url can be changed any time outside of any code changes to LaunchBox, so the test would mostly be that you click the button and it opens a webpage of some kind. Thanks for the feedback.
  15. A new beta round has commenced. LaunchBox 13.25 Beta Thread is now open:
