If it only occurs in the theme you created then something within the overall theme's code could be causing that slight hiccup. The property of the video binding might be the same in your custom theme and the default, but you could have some other theme elements like an animation or a transition causing this. Maybe post a video showing what is happening. If you go into BB video settings and change to Windows Media does it go away. Or change to VLC if you already have it set to Windows Media.

Are you using a custom LB theme? Also what version are you on? Just tested and I noticed it refreshed the background image each time I clicked so appears to be working.

Does this occur only in the custom theme you are using? Best thing to do is test using the Default theme and see if it occurs there. Would want to eliminate it being a theme issue. Also make sure you drivers are up to-to-date.

Just need to map your keyboard or controller to the options for "Close Active Window" in BB keyboard or controller mapping section in the the BB settings.

What controller are you using? Just tested on several builds and no issues binding that button combo.

Since you originally had the games set to launch with Retroarch did you change them all to now launch with Duckstation? You have to select all the games and bulk edit them changing the emulator to Duckstation. Just changing things in the Manage Emulators does not actually change what the games were originally linked to RA. You can confirm by editing a game and checking the Emulation page to see what emulator is listed there..

You simply scroll to the bottom of the list of platforms, click on an empty cell at the bottom, and type the name in.

If none of the Mame stuff works check to make sure you did not accidentally turn off Game Startups for your Mame emulator. You did ask about the override option in another post.

Not really sure. I tested making a Mame platform in LB and then a custom Mame.xml in a Startup theme and no issues. Even have Mame platform located under Arcade Platform Category. There is not a setting that would mess with it. Does it not show a startup at all for Mame? If you switch to the Default Startup does it at least show a startup then?

You have something not matching somewhere. Without seeing your data it is hard to tell. Post a pic of the xml files for your Startup and a pic of your platforms in LB. Is Mame the "Platform Category" name or the actual "Platform" name?

If you are using LB/BB Startup themes and have custom xaml for each platform the xml file name needs to match the actual platform name you have in LB. Is your Arcade platform called "Mame"?

LOL. Thanks you two. I did not even think about the age of the theme. I forgot a new one was done.

Yeah, it does appear to be something affecting use from both sides. So I would say if you are importing and do not want to deal with the slow down I would remove log in info for EmuMovies for now.

Looks like you are using a 3rd party plug-in. So that is not something LB would have activated by default.

Media wise it is pretty easy to get what you need. 1. During new import of roms the Import Wizard has screens that pop-up to allow you to pick and choose media you want to download from the LB database. If you have LB license and EmuMovies there are screens for downloading directly from them as well in the import wizard. 2. After import you can always re-scrape media by selecting a single game or multiple games and using the Media/Metadata importer. After you selected the games simply poit your mouse to >Tools >Download >Update Media and Metadata for Selected Games. BigBox uses all media you downloaded from setting up games in LB. BB comes with a Default theme, but if you want different looks you have to download different themes. There are a selection made available to download directly inside the BB UI or you can download more options from the forums.

Just tested importing about 5 Wii U rpx files and LB had no issues importing. I did use the drag and drop option as scanning typically does not work well since LB does not care about file types nor does it know to look for rpx files. So it will just import files it finds. In cases like Wii U with all the files each game has drag and drop is a better option.

If you have not watched any of our theme making workshops hosted by Faeran I would watch a few. He shows how to do a lot of things in the theme creator. This one below around 23:00 mark he animates an image moving on/off screen.

Themes have to be downloaded. If you are trying to enable them from in the BigBox UI you would have wither already had downloaded a theme from the forum and placed it in your \LaunchBox\Themes folder or there are some available for download directly in the BIgBox UI. The only reason BB would need internet connection is if you are downloading a theme in the BB UI.

I would think if you find the line for "Text="{Binding Path=ActiveGame.Title}" it may be within a "DockPanel" and there should be a "Margin" listed. You may be able to adjust that margin. It will likely have 4 numbers. Looks something like Margin="0,15,0,10" (those are just random numbers I entered). The numbers are for Left, Top, Right, Bottom respectively. So adjusting the Top (2nd number in the code) might alter it. Keep it mind it couold also affect items below it. The game metadata if not in the same DockPanel may be in another dockPanel. So it will be trial and error. Honestly though I am not 100% sure as I do not know if that will affect it as much with your display set to 250%. I will tag @faeran as he has way more coding knowledge/skills than me.

Do you have the correct cores selected in LB? If the games run fine directly in RA then it is a LB setting issue. Can you provide pics of your setting. In LB tools >Manage >Emulators and edit RA. Post 2 pics. 1 of the Details tab and 1 of the Associate Platforms tab showing the platform names affected.

The "Override" only affects the setting of the select theme. It does not allow you to apply a different Startup theme for that particular game. As of now there is not an option to do "per game" Startup/Pause/Shutdowns.

Merged many of the threads about this same issue.

I merged your post with this one. There were already 4 posts about the issue.

Not really. Should be able to just add a margin to that TextBLoxk or StackPanel depending on how the code was written. 16:9 though should not be an issue as that is likely was the theme was coded display wise. Do you have your scaling larger than 100%? That might be causing the issue. What view are you using in the theme? (>BigBox Settings >Options >Views and what view is showing in the Game List View section?

Are you using straight coding in text or VS or are you using the Community Theme Creator?
