Bind 2 buttons together. Example on one of my cabinets Coin and Start buttons held together exit a game back to LB/BB.

Not too odd to integrate. There is a Phoenix Launcher exe file someone created and posted on the forum. Set-up Phoenix and ensure games run inside it. Then when you set things up in LB point to the PhoenixLauncher.exe, add a specific command line, and it works.

Nothing "hackery" needed BB default theme already does this. You can also copy the PlatformMaqureeView.xaml and GameMarqueeView.xaml from the Default theme into any custom BB theme and it will work. Been a while since I looked at the code but I believe the Default theme's marquee view files is set to show a Marquee Video first then falls back to the Marquee Image if no video. Then I believe if no Marquee image it falls back to a background image and clear logo.

Might help to know what plug-in you are referring to.

No. It is not necessary. You can just download the full from set from Pleasure Dome.

Do you have BB lock setting turned on by chance? If you do there is an option to "Allow Sleep While Locked". If you have Lock on and that option turned off that could be the issue.

Are you able to launch Mame outside of LB and play a game? If the answer is no that is your main issue. What could likely be the issue is you may not have Mame pointed to where you moved the roms. By default Mame expects your roms to be in the \Mame\Roms folder. If they are anywhere else you need to either manually edit the Mame ini file and correct the path or launch the Mame.exe (without a rom) and go i to the settings and add the new rom folder path. If the answer to my question is yes there is are LB setting we may need to check but lets see what your answer is first before we go further.

No. Theme customization is a licensed feature.

You would need a licensed version to be able to change LB themes. Then you can use a theme such as the ones below that moves the game details to the top and would allow a few more columns of games to show underneath.

@kurzih Might not a bug. Possible the team has not had all the various case models designed for this feature. I could be wrong though. The 3D cases are not generated using image aspects they are actual 3D models with the measurements of the actual cases. I recall seeing the team advise that over time the others will be made.

If you use the Full Mame Romset import option the "scan for" options does not work. That options is really only for when you import roms without using the Full Set importer. If you initially imported your Mame roms via the "Full Set" import option you do not need to delete the old import at all if you updated your rom set to a newer version and update Mame as well. The full set importer does not actually import files like the other methods do. It just gathers the list of working rom based off the version of Mame you are running and generates the game list. So anytime you update just run the importer again.

The plugin from that thread has nothing to do with the thread you are posting in. That 3rd Party plugin in completely different than the built in HiScore system for this thread that LB has. So if you are having issues with that plugin in you need to post in that thread. Just an FYI it is recommended you not run LB/BB as admin. It will affect some emulators.

Likely because plugins are not tested by the dev team like themes available in the downloader are.

Ah yes, forgot about that little tidbit. Thanks Neil!

Make sure in BB you have either "View Game Details" as an active setting (which means when you select a game the "game details" page will appear before you actually launch the game) or have a button/key mapped to the option to "View Game Details". The Game Details screen gives you the option to select multiple emulators tied to a platform to launch the game with. You should not need a separate RA. In your Retroarch set-up in LB did you make sure to add the platform name to the Associated Platform tab and select the correct core for that platform?

What version LB are you on? Also are you using free version or licensed version. I do not remember if the child playlist is in the freeware or licensed version.

It up to you how you want to import. You can import them into an existing arcade platform or create a Sega Chihiro platform and import them. Just be sure to set the scrape as to "Arcade"

Well for one thing Microsoft took a step towards removing some of the ease in emulation on the Xbox Series consoles. Originally Xbox system set to Dev Mode (getting Dev Mode is a pretty simple process) could run emulators, then it was allowed on system still in normal "Retail Mode". As of a few days ago Microsoft has blocked retail mode machines from running emulators. The apps no longer work. So who knows how long before they do the same for the consoles when run in Dev Mode. Pretty sure if they so desire they can prevent it.

Yeah that video is 6 years old. Plenty of things have changed since then. To get the same option just right click on your arcade platform name in LB.

Option is still there. It is the highlighted option in the pic "Running Script" which is where the pic you posted states to go. Well they did state "Running AutoHotkey Script" tab so it was slightly wrong.

You cannot use another front end’s theme in BB. CoinOps Redux is probably closest available. Your options would be to manually edit CoinOps Redux theme code (requires some coding skill) to make it how you want or use the Community Theme Creator tool to make a version from scratch to meet your needs.

Are you running TeknoParrot as admin? that would cause this error. Older methods for some games did require admin for TP. If you are using newer dumps and updated TeknoP that is not really needed anymore.

Never said it did not work great. Only mentioned it has a flaw/deficiency. It is still extra steps to get something working that is not needed. I think we can move on and focus on the user’s issue instead.

There was a running thread with info on this in it the link below was provided. Please try the version from this link. https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/thank-you/runtime-desktop-3.1.32-windows-x64-installer
