  1. Yes, the images should quickly change with no noticeable flicker or lag. If the images quickly switched to the next one for you then you had no issues.
  2. It is not something that needs activating. It is just updated code to the software that has made marquees run a bit lighter on has less of a performance hit on low-end hardware. It has also reduced from flickering that would occur during image changes. This was most notable on users that were using a custom Marquee view that may have had multiple images/metadata showing on the marquee screen.
  3. In LB Tools check if you have anything else "checked" in your Marquee Priorities. That fallback could be pulling one of those images that might be in another image type folder.
  4. Other than Neil's recommendation for a Feature update the only way for this to be done is custom coding in a theme. Marquees though do have new coding that will default to clear logo and fanart backgrounds when no marquee image file exists. It has logic that will check for a marquee video and if none fall back to marquee image. Then if no marquee image, fallback to clear logo and fanart background. If you are using a custom theme though the theme will likely not have this coding. You can simply open the BB Defaul theme and copy the GameMarqueeView.xml file into the /Views folder of your custom theme.
  5. Well that error code you posted only appears when a pirated license is being used as that is the reason the code was created. So check inside your \LaunchBox folder and if you see a file called License.xml remove it and try again.
  6. Please see our above response to this issue. Same thing applies to your issue. The license you are using has been flagged as being pirated/shared amongst users. If you feel this is incorrect email support@unbrokensoftware.com with a copy of the license you are using and explain the issue.
  7. I would also check for FLV videos in your media. FLV video files have been known to cause this issue in Attract Mode. Custom themes did not seem to affect it either. There is a long running thread where some users identified this video file type caused their crashes when in Attract Mode. I had the issue as well and removing those videos stopped the crashes.
  8. What version are you on? Have not seen any recent reports of this issue and just downloaded a few videos myself. What is the exact issue for you? Single game video download or it will not download for multiple games at once?
  9. Currently it is not. Separate platform views is available, but as you have seen if you set a playlist to a certain view, the platform resets to that same view and vice versa.
  10. LB does not control in game mapping. So you can use which ever controller you want in game as long as you map it directly in the emulator.
  11. Not sure. I know there is not specific ones in our forum for Unified. I use that theme but I use Silver Ring logos it and for all themes.
  12. In LB > Tools >Options >Updates Those have to either be downloaded from within the LB media scraping, from our forum, or you can add them to your images folder from anywhere else you might get clear logos. From within LB if you select either all games in a platform or all your games the go to >Tools >Download >Update Metadata and Media for Select Games you can move through the media wizard and when you get to the image types just uncheck all and then check only "Clear Logos". Keep in mind it will all depend on the style of clear logos you want for the wheel. Specific one you can download from the forum. The LB media wizard usually downloads the versions that are just the png of the games logo. It does require a bit of coding. There is another thread where I have a modified one for a similar style screen. I will see if I can find it and link to it.
  13. @ChickenGeorge OK. We would either have to edit a Marquee View xaml for you or you can download the latest beta as it has marquee settings you can adjust to set the image better for that type of screen. That is if your license has not expired and you can still download updates.
  14. An image of what you are seeing would be helpful. What type of screen are you using? Also what version are you on as there are some new features in the betas to help with marquee images (specifically good with cut marquee screens like many have started using).
  15. Did you check inside the emulator you mapped your controller? If you start a game in the emulator directly without using LB does it work? The controller mappings available inside LB/BB have nothing to do with in emulator game play, just an FYI.
  16. This is being looked at in another thread.
  17. That's because this is the published theme and the not theme project files. In order to edit a theme made from the the CTC the author has to release the CTC project files for it. I do not believe Faeran has done so since the theme is not complete.
  18. No, if your license is expiring you do not loose the current features you have, you just cannot update LB/BB to a more current version when it expires. LB should open any pdf file without issue. Do you get any error or it just does not open? Safe to assume you can open the pdf directly outside of LB?
  19. Possibly a plug-in could do this, but it is not a current setting option in LB/BB.
  20. @C-Beats Mentioned a fix for this a few posts back based on the same question @Mr. RetroLust posted.
  21. Ahhh, that was the missing piece "Platform" level marquees and not game level.
  22. I recommend reloading the prior version it was working on and see if it is in fact this beta. i have tested several machines with custom marquee images as well as custom marquee themes and see no issues. So it would be good for us to know if reverting to prior LB version your images work again. Are these just custom images in the Arcade-Marquee image folders or custom images using a custom GameMarqueeView.xaml?
  23. Because when you import by folder LB is importing what is in the folder. It is file type agnostic and has no definitions as to what type of file it should specifically point to. The only time it does know what specific file to use if the Full Mame Set importer since it specifically uses Mame's own xaml file which is why the full set importer can also only be used with official Mame and not RA Mame.
  24. What file for the game are you pointing to in LB? The zip or the chd?
  25. Yeah, that's the steps I took. Let me try and set-up ReShade see if it makes a difference. It will be a bit before I can report back for you as I am not at the house. I will also test an another cabinet. What version Model 3 are you using?
