Correct. They are not something the user can edit in a theme’s code or in a setting.

It is priority of importance not of sequence. LB and BB only show 1 video that is looped the longer you stay on it. It does not play one first, then when done plays the next one in the order listed. So in the case of your image LB/BB will play a trailer video if one is available. If not it looks for a recording to play that. If no recording it looks for the a marquee and so on until it finds one of those options that has a video in the respective folder. Then that is the video it plays until you move to another game.

Yeah it moves very little at a time to allow a pretty precise volume setting.

What theme are you using?

Does your PS2 platform name match the name of the image file in the theme? Looking at the background image file in the theme folder it is Sony Playstation 2.png so your platform name would need to be "Sony Playstation 2". If it is not you can simply rename the image file to match how you have named your PS2 platform.

Yes, but not as an option to set in BB. You would have the edit the theme’s code and create something like a storyboard to animate the images. You could animate movement or their opacity. If it was a theme created using the Community Theme Creator and the developer shared the theme creation files you can use that to edit in the CTC and it has some really good tools to do these animations without needing to know actual coding.

Its not a bug or an oversight. It is by design. The full set option does not actually import roms. It uses Mame’s actual Mame.xaml to simply list the roms noted as “playable” by Mame itself. Moving roms would only be possible with a non-merged set as ant other set would not include the needed support files for various roms. So you could use the feature request option (located under Help & Support) to request a move feature in Full Mame option if the users has a non-merged set.

It will if the rom is not supposed to be extracted. Such as in Mame.

If they are actual LB playlists (ones you downloaded from our forum from other users) you can place the xaml files in \Launchbox\Data\Playlist folder.

In your BB settings look inside the Keyboard Mapping and/or the Controller Mapping page. See if you have a key or button bound to the option for "Change View". If you do back out into the theme and hit that key or button. You will see the view change in real time. Keep changing it until you get to the view you want or used to be on.

If you are manually adding the newer image to the folders the old image is still retained in the image cache. So when you go into LB and then edit images from the metadata screens you need to refresh the image cache. This would typically occur if you had LB open when manually dropping the files in the folder.

You cannot play games without the actual roms. You need to download the actual zipped rom files and if you followed the steps in the first post you would not end up with just an xml file. Not sure where you are downloading the Mame rom pack from but if it is just an xml file that is your issue.

Just uncheck the box for background updates and see how it goes from there. Like I mentioned I have had mixed issues with that on. Since turning it off I have never had an update issue.

Yeah, this is why I was asking if the OP could post what fixed the issue. In case it is something other than what we have commonly known to be needed.

What happens if you click the actual exe file in your \Launchbox folder versus the desktop shortcut?

I am familiar with what his error message is and the Windows Runtime 3.1 is what we commonly link to for users with .net install issues to manually install. Was curious to what the original poster did as there have only been a couple Win 11 issues. Also SDK is not needed. The runtime has everything needed for LB. The SDK is just used to create and compile applications using .Net Core. So it os recommended to just download the runtime.

Apologies you did not get any response on this. Glad you got sorted. Would you mind advising what you ended up doing in case someone else runs across the same issue with Win 11.

You do not really need to set it up as a second Mame. Its just a recompiled Mame that keeps all the original playable Mame roms and adds MM2 support. If you got a good recompile it would also have Akai Katana and DoDonPachi support since those were removed a few version ago. So you can just use this as Mame for all your roms. Similar to the NoNag that MadK9 posts on our forum each month.

That is the Default startup theme. The loading progress bar works only when the option to "Extract ROM archives before running" is set for an emulator. It is that way with any Startup Theme that has the line of code to include the status bar.

You getting your set from Pleasuredome? Just tested 244 from the PD torrent and downloading just fine.

You just run the full set importer again. You do not need to delete anything.

Also how do you have updates set to run? Do you have the option for "Automatically Download Updates in the Background" on? I have seen that option on some of my cabinets be quirky. So I turned it off and never had update issues.

LB does do partial matches but you need to use a legitimate partial string to a title. Such as "Alone In The". Not random title words. If you do wish to make this a suggestion than those are made on our bitbucket site. Link is located at the top of the forum under Help & Support.

No. Older versions are not available from the site. You can look in your updates folder. If you have not deleted anything in there all the past versions you installed are there. You can simply select the one you want and run the installer. Keep in mind reverting means you loose any feature updates not present in the version. Also as BB/LB features change sometimes themes will no longer work properly on older versions.
