LaunchBox Won't Download Gameplay Videos From EMU Movies?
Retro808 replied to Wonderboy's topic in Troubleshooting
Are you able to get any other media from Emumovies for the game you tried? What game is it? -
Maybe no one knows what that is. I sure do not. I have never seen it on my builds and first I have seen this reported. Do you use a dual or triple monitor setup?

LaunchBox Won't Download Gameplay Videos From EMU Movies?
Retro808 replied to Wonderboy's topic in Troubleshooting
Videos have a priority setting in LB. Go to >Tools >Options Under the Media section choose >Video Priorities. You can select all the options you want and then when you click on each line you can use the "Move Selected" to place each of them in priority order. Highest one will show first and in the absence of that video the next one in line will show. As far as Emu download goes I would try 1 game first. Edit it and download the video from Emumovies and see if it works. If it does try a couple game next time. Then let us know if that worked. There have been some random user issues. -
What exact steps are you taking? Just tested with 2 Xbox GamePass games and had no issue adding or launching from LB.

Well I can say that 4GB ram is what is hurting you. BB is a WPF application and loads a good bit of resources into memory.
-
You can try going into BB settings and turning off all the media transitions and then test using the Default theme. Reason I say test with the Default is custom themes can override turning off the media transitions. What are your machine specs? For reference my simplest build is a Ryzen 3 2200G 16gb ram and no dedicated video card and runs without issue.

LaunchBox UI wigged out and now is shaded, can't click, unusable
Retro808 replied to ImANewbie's topic in Troubleshooting
Do you have Backups turned on in your LB settings? You can always just delete the Setting.xml file from the \Data folder. It will reset some of your settings to default. So you may have to redo a few things. It does not affect games and emulators. Mainly the LB appearance. -

Retro808 replied to ImANewbie's topic in Troubleshooting
Your Settings.xml is corrupt. Go into your \Backups folder and open one of the latest backup zips. Inside there get the Setting.xml file and copy into your \Data folder overriding the corrupt one. -
Yeah the emumovies seems to be hit or miss for users it affects. I added some new games this morning and it took maybe 10-20 seconds for EmuMovies to show up in the media dialogue box showing what media was available and then download was quick. Hopefully the devs can replicate the issue.
-
What error? You posted twice "it keeps giving me this error" but you are not showing us what the error is.
-
Not sure what you got going on. Just tested on several machines about 8 different platform/games and delete worked as should. I only tested deleting a single rom at a time.

Scan For Added ROMs Not Behaving As Expected
Retro808 replied to demosthenes2010's topic in Troubleshooting
In your PSP platform is the "Games" folder pointing to where you have the PSP roms if they are not located inside the LB default folder? -
Pulse Pause View File User requested a Startup, Pause, and Shutdown theme to compliment the Pulse BigBox theme. So I decided to see how close I could get to the great design of that theme made by Juketsu. I am not a skilled or seasoned coder, more of a scratch type coder so behind the scenes may not be the prettiest. This was fun seeing how much of the BB theme I could decipher. Since the BB theme was done using the Community Theme Creator and that program uses some custom plugins I had to get creative to replicate some items. The Pause theme was modeled after Pulse's TextGamesView since a menu is needed. Overall layout, metadata, and some animations are all there from the BB theme. Only creative difference I took was using a red heart for the favorites logo. The BB theme uses the same blue star as the user rating. Installation: Download zip file and be sure to unblock the zip. Simply place the PulsePause folder inside your \LaunchBox\PauseThemes\ folder (Do NOT rename the folder). Credit(s): @Juketsu Pulse theme is his original design. The Pause theme uses his design and artwork. NOTES: 1. This theme will stay up until Juketsu releases his version. If he is planning to do one. 2. The menu, depending on how many items you have, may seem like there is a lot of space. Unfortunately that is the way it is. The more items you have the more the space fills are you can see in some pics. I plan a different layout for this, but for now this is the look it has. 3. Theme was only tested on a 16:9 and 4:3 aspect monitor. Submitter Retro808 Submitted 11/23/2021 Category Pause Themes

That is not something edited in the Community Theme Creator. All that stuff is LB data so you have to edit in LB. Looks like @C-Beats provided steps to do just that.
-
Can you be more specific on what you mean by "edit" individual platform metadata? Are you trying to change what metadata is pulled into the theme for the platform?
-
Is the zip file it is showing the game zipped file? Would you post a pic of your RA settings. In LB >Tools >Manage >Emulators then edit Retroarch. Post a pic of the "Details" page.
-
Yes. You just need to make a playlist called "Favorites" and set it to auto-populate with the Field = Favorites and the Comparison = Is True.

Help creating a Pause, Satart and Shutdown Theme
Retro808 replied to IxMasterxI's topic in Pause Themes
Messing around with the Startup and Shutdown. BB Theme Image as reference: Startup and Shutdown theme so far: The "Loading" and "Exit" text fade in/out and the blue glows animate as well like in the BB theme. Still got a lot of cleaning up. @IxMasterxI will send you a copy to test once I get to that point. -
For the error you are getting looks like a fix is in place in our current beta. You can download the beta, otherwise you would have to wait for the next stable release. To get betas in LB tools in the updates section there is a tick box to download betas. As a workaround, if you do not have a User Name and Password in the EmuMovies section in your LB settings you should be able to put a random string of data in those and it should keep it from crashing when you then try to download the platform media. As far as the rom duplication piece not to sure. Can you provide information on when the duplicates occur? Is it during import, after closing then opening LB a duplicate appears. Need some details. Also cna you share a pic of the contents of your \Data\Platforms folder.

Help creating a Pause, Satart and Shutdown Theme
Retro808 replied to IxMasterxI's topic in Pause Themes
Oh now you are just getting greedy. 🤣 I am joking of course. I will try and get that going as well. May be a bit (probably about a week) as I have a work project to tend to. Thanks, but the real credit goes to @Juketsu for the visual style of the theme. I do not have that sort of creativity. I am just happy I have taught myself enough coding to be able to replicate his design. It will be a bit longer before I post. Need to clean up some code and refine a few minor things. -

If you prefer different images in either of the two box let me know and I can make an adjustment. Let me know what image and in which of the two boxes you prefer.
