There is no errors it just does not load. I see the process pop up in Task Manager and it says "Suspended" and closes please halp
Look man, idk why your so butt hurt over my comment i was trying to help you. If you truly didnt have your AV quarantine it, and its just exitting on launch there must be a error log. You need to check event viewer and see if something causing issues. You sure you installed the .net dependency? Ive only had one program conflict with lb boot and it was msi afterburner, but a few updates later it was fixed.

What a great community member lol. I don't even have AntiVirus. Everything is disabled. Sorry whatever or whoever hurt you man seems like you're going through alot...
I'm literally Windows educated 10+ years I don't need you to insult my intelligence because of what I did on my personal time.
Can we please get someone here who knows what they're talking about?
I mean your on here talking about using cocaine, going back and forth. You claiming to be windows 10 educated is laughable, win10 comes with AV and you dont even know the abr for it. Im not gonna feed into this, 9 times out of 10 is AV or MSI afterburner stopping lb from opening, youve been told that twice now. But again i dont know what im talking about smh.

I think you're missing the point here buddy. What's a AV and what DLL do I need?
missing the point? you are embodied confusion. AV is short for anti virus. You have alot to learn my friend, good luck on your journey.

Hi I spent hours compiling my Launchbox installation. I closed it, it doesn't open. Show's on task manager for just 1 sec then closes automatically.
If I reinstall the program it opens with no issues.
I really need the help of my community here.
Ignore my last post I was high on cocaine. Sorry if I offended anyone with my childishness.
what do you mean exactly when you say you spent hours compiling launchbox? it comes precompiled? Maybe the cocaine is working against you here, if you want my opinion it sounds like your AV is eating a needed dll on launch.

Doing a major overhaul of additional apps the past few months, adding anything i can to each of my games. When i got around to adding rom hacks and mods to each game I realized that retroacheivements actually supports some of these hacks. So i needed a way to differentiate all the normal hacks from the RA supported ones. Turns out the solution was simple, lb must support unicode symbols because the trophy emoji displays properly! So i can now "mark" certain rom hacks that RA supports by adding the trophy symbol at the end. Combined with the RA plugin already available I never miss a RA supported title in my collection. As a avid trophy hunter this has been really useful to me the past few weeks, figured i'd share the info in case anybody else thinks its useful. Just copy the 🏆 symbol and paste it into the additional app title.

I did this exact thing last year, i ended up keeping rocketlauncher as part of my setup but in a way it was removed. First off your likely going to lose bezel support if you don't have plans to install retroarch, this is the only reason rocketlauncher remains in my setup for a few emus i dont use RA for (ps2, few others). They will look the same tho yes, likely even better using RA shaders. I let RL go for everything else and didnt look back. i use retroarch because in my opinion its way better, bezels look great with it, list goes on and on. You can even have custom themes and fonts per system with RA, its VERY customizable. Pretty sure LB can do the rest of those things although i could be mistaken.

Ever since the running in background feature came out I noticed launchbox eats up a lot of ram…Way more than chrome with multiple tabs. Is this normal or should I reinstall LB?
it’s usually around 1.5-2.5gb when the window isn’t open. Just seems high, no other application eats up ram that also runs in background like that. Ram usage doesn’t seem high when games are running after launching them, it’s usually when I minimize LB and stop using it.
I noticed that too lately its been a bit higher on my end as well, i hit 4gb yesterday after having LB open for hours doing a bunch of edits. Usually for me 1.5-2gb is normal. Depends on how much ram you have i assume, i have 4x8GB(32GB).

Can you just remap escape to a button on your controller or remote? It’s not a big deal cuz home on controller already brings up RA menu and I just close from there…or I’d use the launchbox game pause screen to exit. No need to get up and use a keyboard
Ah yeah, i have a exit hotkey already mapped i just thought that maybe i was missing something to get it to close on its own after video is done playing. I can exit with either esc, pause menu, or controller button combo. I actually map my home button to snap screenshots. But your right its really not a big deal, i'd rather hit esc or exit button combo than lose my nice bezel setup and shaders. Its odd tho thats why i posted, because it seems to "want" to exit after playing the video. It goes back to LB for like 1 sec then RA returns with that "no items" menu.

I use retroarch's ffmpeg to play most of my game related video content (commercials, bonus videos, movies, making of, etc), I add them as a additional apps to corresponding games. Retroarch is great for this because you can use old tv bezels and crt shaders. I only have one small issue with RA end, i can't seem to get RA to close after the video playback has finished. Documentation doesnt speak of any exit-after-playback switches or anything. Hitting ESC after the video is finished isnt the biggest deal, does anybody know if im missing something? I tried the --eof-exit switch but im pretty sure that only works with the BSV playback/recording stuff. Not sure how i would go about coding up batch scripts either...because i have no way to tell if RA is playing a video or not.

They load just fine for me using Mupen64plus_next.
alternatively you can pass the "--subsystem ndd" command as well to RA.
If your trying to boot a rom thats ndd only, with no disk/cart combo (ex. Super Mario 64 -Disk Version) use Parallel n64 for that. Both need a bios installed in system folder.

Dolphin.exe -n 0000000100000002
This command works for me, boots directly into the wii menu.
Dolphin.exe -n 0001000248414341
This boots directly into MiiMaker.
The -C switch is for the config file, i never had any luck with that. As far as i know there isnt a switch to mount a iso/etc in dolphin. You can "change disc" within the wii menu in Disc Channel, not sure if it actually boots the iso or not, ive never used it. I only use my menu for nostalgia, managing my saves, miis, that kinda stuff.

You'd have to make another playlist for 360 or scrape them as seperate platforms.
Thanks Rlad, making another playlist named XBox 360 and adding all official games to said playlist worked.

I just recently started using playlist's somewhat in LB to try to organize my collection a bit better. I changed my default view to platform categories and everything works as expected, its a bit wonky making playlists but overall im happy with the feature. I was wondering if there might be a way to hide the games i have in a playlist from the main platform category? I posted a screenshot below of one example, i dont want to see the XBLA games (orange cover) mixed in with the 360 games (green cover). I was hoping to separate them and have only the 360 games listed when i highlight XBox 360, and if i click XBox Live Arcade all the XBLA games show.

Cool, glad ya got it sorted out. I left a note for myself to take a look at that audit menu. May be worthwhile if we can get a hover over tooltip to display saying WHY the item is flagged as a duplicate to help with instances like this.
i would have to admit something like that would have been useful this morning haha. None the less it wasnt headache inducing just thought i had some xml corruption because i couldnt find any duplicates.

Can I get ya to zip up your data folder and PM it to me? I'll take a look as I get time. Can't promise I can get to it right away, but be nice to find the cause.
I found it sir, It counts additional apps as duplicates. Wasnt there before because i revised the Gamecube stuff last month. I had a additional app for each of those games for pokemon channel for some reason and it slipped past my view there. once i removed the additional apps for fire red from the gamecube pokemon games, it no longer was red in audit menu. Thanks for clearing that up c-beats i didnt realize there was a couple forms of logic for duplicates. Guess ill just have to deal with the red lines for now but at least i know its just because of the additional apps. thanks for the help

I dont think i even have any of those games added as additional apps actually now that i checked, those gba roms get loaded automatically when i load doplhin. Theres really no reason at all for those to be flagged as duplicates. Theres some other games that i do load that way, not these pokemon games though...im stumped.

Duplicates are marked as such if any of the following conditions are met:
You have another game in your library (doesn't have to be in the same platform) using the same LaunchBox Database Game ID as the game in question
You have another game in your library (doesn't have to be in the same platform) using the same exact file as the game in question
You have another game in your library, in the same platform, using the same name/title as the game in question
Can you confirm none of these are true?1. I can confirm i do not have any other games from any platform using the pokemon game ids from the LB database. I never mash them, its either got a ID for that game for that platform or i leave the LB ID blank and i fill in the info myself.
2. I can confirm that i do not have that file added anywhere besides additional apps. I have them added as additional apps for select titles i should say. For example in the gamecube platform, pokemon box/revolution both have additional apps linked to the pokemon games they support. Sometimes with their own emu (if compatible with only said version, etc). When i do this i use same settings, add said pokemon game as additional app, use retroarch as the emu, give it a name, done. Its never added through the importer.
3. I can confirm that there are no other duplicate pokemon games in my GBA platform list using the same titles, no mods added its strictly a additional app install with those i hate finding the art and info for all those mods and such. I only have 6 pokemon games for GBA, one is pinball. They show as they should in LB. Just flagged as duplicates in the audit menu.
I noticed rocketlaucher registered them that way too, but it makes sense since it reads the launchbox xml files. I used to load the pokemon games in another fahsion though, maybe thats what caused this? Previously, when i first started setting up my launchbox i noticed a save file compatibility issue within the different emus for gba, so i used different core for loading those 5 games being marked. I did that by pointing the rom path to retroarch.exe, and adding the corresponding cmd line stuff to use vba as the core for those games. That way i had a sav file for those games, which i needed in a specific format to be compatible with pokemon box/ revolution etc. well i realized later when i got to revising that platform that i could do it in a more organized fashion and changed the rom paths back to the actual roms. I did that months ago though....and they didnt flag as duplicates when i changed it.

Having a weird issue where launchbox claims that i have duplicate roms when i know for a fact that i do not. When entering audit mode for my GBA titles it registers all the pokemon games as duplicates, even though you can see in my attached thumbnail that they are not. I cannot uncheck the duplicate checkbox, i cannot reimport them after deleting them (unless force duplicates is checked of course). It did not do this previously btw, i just revised that platform maybe 6 months ago...ish. Guess what im asking is, there a way to fix this? I read another kinda old thread about this issue and all they said was manually edit it? what does that mean? I posted a screenshot of my GBA platform audit list, sorted so all duplicates are visible at the top.

Have only ever used VLC as not a fan of the alternative
I have been experiencing this issue for a long while now....I have been using it with videos enabled lately (since about 11.13) by switching it to WMP as video playback. If you edit the titles in audit mode it wont crash as well, I havent had a crash since i switched the video playback app to WMP. I know this isnt a true fix to the issue as wmp wont play some file types. All my gameplay videos are mp4 so using WMP isnt a issue for me for now. I added VLC as a emu and use it as i see fit for things that truly need vlc. Ive been revising my collection for maybe 2 months solid, not a single metadata edit crash since the switch to WMP from VLC. Means the issue is likely coming from VLC, or something to do with how its being used within launchbox. A while back when i first commented on this switching to WMP did nothing, it would still crash. Sometime during 11.1X updates something was changed or fixed, switching to WMP playback now stops the hang (crash). Hope this helps, I know i was getting pretty frustrated when it was crashing on me every 5 edits. Its a decent temp fix until they figure out whats really going on one day.

I've been having this problem for quite some time....pretty sure ive narrowed it down to a VLC problem on my end. I will get hang and have to close out of launchbox, usually after editing a game or as OP said just doing some speedy navigation. At first disabling the auto play of videos seemed to fix it, but with the last few updates it no longer was a temp fix for me, changing it to Windows Media Player as default video app seemed to have fixed it for me for now. Havent had a hang or "not responding" for like 6 days now. Used to get several a day. Hopefully it gets sorted out at some point...

This is atrocious. Blaming a specific antivirus instead of providing information about why it's being flagged as a false report is the kind of thing that makes security-conscious users like myself run for the hills.
The way this is being handled deserves more attention, because that response is completely inappropriate and dismisses serious concerns with no justification for doing so.I agree! and at that its WINDOWS DEFENDER (the one they claim to use) thats flagging it as a virus. Blaming it on a antivirus thats embedded in windows 10 next? been hours and still no response im legit done with this mess.

i can verify that downgrading to v1.13 works. Pretty upsetting that its now almost noon and not a single official statement from any of the devs or mods smh. I'll stay away from updates for a while.

i bought GameEX instead, works perfect. I won't be renewing my subscription in March. problem solved.

sooooo.....based on the look of the forums id say we just arent getting any support anymore? 2 posts not a single comment from a dev or mod to help? kinda frustrated by that as i paid for this and it hasnt worked right since .net stuff was added. Many many people state that, but nothing is done. Pretty disappointed with all this to be honest.
