  1. I think you lost me on "RetroArch theme". Do you mean Big Box theme? If you do, and they are game specific clear logos, they are most likely made for a specific theme, and my guess is that you could drag/drop them into the themes folders and they would work. If you are wanting to use them in an unintended theme, it's still possible, but would require more work. Where those images go, are usually inside of a folder path like: LaunchBox\Themes\[theme name]\Images\Games\[random custom image name] Then in the theme's game view you'd like to use them in, you'd have to change the image type code to match the custom image folder name. This process is mapped out inside of the theme documentation.pdf located in your LaunchBox\themes folder.
  2. Are you saying that you have custom categories and you want to add images to those categories? In LaunchBox right click the category, go into Edit, and add the images on the right side of the window, making sure to label each one properly. If you want theme specific overrides, you'll need to place correctly named images into LAUNCHBOX\Themes\[theme name folder]\Platform Categories\[image type folder]\ Both may require image cache refreshes.
  3. The unified theme is a custom Big Box theme that uses custom code. Therefore, in order to make changes to the theme, you'll have to dive into its code and make the changes from in there. All of that is possible if you want to get your hands a little dirty.
  4. This is not a CTC feature, this is just a general user setting in Big Box using the transitionpresenter. There are a number of transitionPresenter elements that can be used in a Big Box theme, and when used, a user has the ability to change what kind of transition will be shown for that element. The CTC can only use 1 of these transition elements by default (the video element). Others would have to be added via source code, and even others (like the game details view element), need to come with a separate xaml file you'll have to code yourself and include with the CTC files.
  5. Did you download it from the LaunchBox Games DB or EmuMovies?
  6. Themes may only contain game or filter views. Enter into a games view and you'll probably see the other views to choose from. While probably not out of the realm of possibility, I wouldn't hold your breath for a long while.
  7. Thanks Vader. However, just remember that when building LaunchBox for Android themes you have to take into account all different screen sizes and resolutions. As an example, here's what it looks like on the Odin Pro: You can always jump in and make a galaxy tab s7 plus specific version of the theme with those changes for your needs.

    Sure. In Options, set the Default Secondary Filter to None.

    It would require you to make changes to the theme, either within the theme files itself, or you can download the COMMUNITY Theme Creator files and load them up into the COMMUNITY Theme Creator.

  19. Can you show a screenshot of what you mean by it disappearing?
  20. It checks your ROM file for what region it is. Region Priority wouldn't currently factor into this. You would have to change the region of the game, but more importantly, fleshing out the database would help future us.

    It's still there, but has probably been moved since the video. It's available on the top-centered menu that appears when you mouse over.
  22. It essentially comes down to the LaunchBox database not having the region for the image type you are looking for, so it ends up downloading what it can. In the case of something like "Banjo-Kazooie". Let's say you have a ROM that is denoted as USA, it will try and find a match for the North American region image type for clear logo. If you check our database, we only seem to have clear logos for the Japan and World regions. So the solution is to make sure there is a clear logo uploaded to the database that has the region you are looking for.

  23. Pretty sure ETA just did a cut to move the video along quicker. It probably should have been explained in the video. Like @sundogak already mentioned, seeing the dashboard is just the normal operation of the Philips CD-i.
  24. Go into your Keyboard Mapping options and make sure you have the keys you want set to the actions you want.
  25. You can, but it does require that you create a custom LaunchBox Theme, and then remove those features from the GameDetailsView.xaml code in your own theme.
