    you may also want to run CrystalDiskMark on your usb 3 drive to see if it's getting the speed you want and expect. 

    I tested the drive it is actully 60% faster than my internal drive (which is a few years now), some how my USB drive was formatted to exFAT which is odd and I have no idea how that happened. I reformated to NTFS and I'm running better than ever......Thanks for the help.

  2. I recently copied my games library and launch box program from my 4TB Western Digital Red hard drive to a 8TB (WDBCKA0080HBK-NESN) USB 3.0 external hard drive.

    There is some slight lag on the internal drive but its really was not that bad but on the external drive it can barely cache the images and near crashes frequently.

    I have turned off legacy USB support in my computer bios but it did not speed things up much, any suggestions?

    Library 59,000+

    To be honest, I dont know what's missing! Give me your lists here for the videos and on the good topic for the logo.
    Thank you!

    EDIT : 

    Teaser for next batch ;) The MSX LaserDisic (aka Pioneer Palcom)
    If you are ideas : Submit me your platform !

    Nice! I was not expecting a Palcom video. The cld 1750 as the player is a nice touch. 

  4. I couldn't find a tread on this topic so I hope this helps someone.

    Step-1

    I used the "DISK.ROM" bios from the Ru-MSX emulator which can easily be found in a google search for RuMSX 0.41 [Windows] [32-Bit Intel].

    Note: There are other bios files that work but this is the only one that has worked on all MSX2 games I tried and I tested about 30 games. I know RuMSX comes with a public bios called C-BIOS but I am not sure if its apart of it, so I am reframing from just uploading a zip.

    Step-2

    Download BlueMSX here http://www.bluemsx.com/

    Install

    open program go to file>ROM 1 select "DISK.ROM" (or you bios of choice)

    That's it, the emulator remembers the last ROM image you loaded. After this simply add the emulator to launchbox and then add your games. The .dsk files open up no problem with no extra command-line parameters needed.  But you will need to swap disk for multi-disk games.

    I'm not sure why but I couldn't found any information on loading dsk files through the BlueMSX Libretro on retroarch and this method is pretty easy.

  5. Hey Guys,

    @DOS76 @neil9000 The only thing I changed was the ampersand in the file path. I was on a phone and made some typos hence why you see my comment edits. Hopefully this thread will help someone else or the development team.

    @neil9000 No worries on the speed of you commenting, Launchbox easily has some of the best support I have ever gotten especially for what is basically freeware.

    I just copied my entire luanch box folder to a flash drive and everything works GREAT as is!

    But videos do not work in its original location, everything works except the video.

    By path to launchbox is "G:\Emulators & Roms\# Front end\LaunchBox"

  7. @neil9000

    The theme I am trying is cityhunter.

    I selected the theme and confirmed, the theme and fonts work just no video.

    I when to opinions and tried ever view, also scrolled through them with the quick key I assigned.

    Maybe there is something missing or corrupt?

     

  8. Neither Video for Platforms or Themes is working on Launchbox (version 7.10)

    1-Set Video playback engine to VLC

    2-scrolled through ever view mode in bigbox

    3-Made sure platform videos are in the correct folder and connected through Tools>Manage Platforms

    4- Made sure the theme folder is correctly named and in the correct location.

    5- Under options>videos the platform videos have been selected and unselected.

    6-Favorite games have turned on and off.

    Did I miss something?

  9. @DOS76 Thanks, I was afraid I was going to have to do that.

    The Sega Saturn has a lot more Japanese games than American, my Japanese folder is 330gb zipped. The Saturn did very well in Japan in fact it was Sega best selling console in the Japanese market but got crushed in every other country,

    Funny enough Tom Kalinske (CEO of Sega of America, Inc in the early 90s) approach Sony after they got dumped by Nintendo and Sony agreed to market the Playstation under Sega's brand name. BUT Sega of  Japan said NO, they got their first hit in Japan by releasing the Saturn but at the cost of loosing all other markets internationally. In the end loosing BADLY to Sony even in their own country after a couple years.

  10. @fromlostdays I added them by the zip file and would like to keep them zipped. My games folder for the Saturn is 498GB, it would be well over 1.2TB unzipped.

    The games work zipped with "Extract ROM archives before running" checked in launchbox, when the archive opens directly to the CUE and iso like this.

    1.thumb.JPG.fc1d29589f7b476b07386737f2a1d97a.JPG

    The problem is that most of my 7z archives open with a subfolder "Media (CD-ROM)" which contains the ISO and Cue like this.

    2.thumb.JPG.164cc6a233e766c14507bcd60b342efd.JPG

    Is there anyway maybe via "Custom Command Line Parameters" to point the emulator to the subfolder folder after being unzipped to play.

    I would think this is a common issue as I have a lot of CD games with this "Media (CD-ROM)" subfolder, especially multi disc games.

    If you could help that would be AWSOME!
