What exactly do you mean you cannot open game wheel? You cannot go into a platform and see the list of games?

You can vote for it here.

BigBox startup video process was restructured a while ago so it should play the video in full. How do you have the startup video set up? (What folder is it in).

Thanks @Archmage_R We appreciate the support and understanding. The actual LB team is growing a little so maybe in the future there can be a smoother process. I have attached your ticket in case users search and find this topic. We can steer them towards the ticket and support with a vote. Vote below to support the ticket request. https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/6137/tickbox-for-infobox-when-importing-games

I understand it can be annoying to some users. There are only 2 devs and many things have to be triaged due to the limited time they work on LB updates and features. The more users vote on a feature the better chance it has of becoming a priority. We have offered you an option to request a feature. Bitbucket is our best source to track requests. If you choose not to do so then unfortunately there is less of a chance it gets updated.

If a game is in a playlist there is currently not a way to hide it inside the parent platform. Feel free to request a feature for this. At the top of the forum under "Help and Support" is a "Request a Feature" link. Open a ticket there than I suggest porting a link to it here to drive users to vote.

@C-Beats We tend to see two common reasons for this. One is more often the culprit over the other. 1. People using Skraper. It has a backup feature that only has 3 options (Off, Backup Existing XAML then Update, or Edit original Xaml with no backup). It does not allow the user to specify the backup location. If it did, Skraper would cause less issues as you would be able to have it place the backup outside the \Data folders. 2. User manually creates the backup. Number 1 is typically the most common culprit we see.

When you resize the game details pane it should retain that size when you open and close LB. I know it does for my custom theme and a couple others I use. I just tested it LBPlex and it retains the size when the pane is adjusted and the I close LB and reopen it.

If you are talking about skipping the game details screen then yes. In BB settings under "General" page there is an option to "Skip Game Details". Tick that then when you enter a platform and click on a game it just loads. I would also go into your keyboard or controller mapping options in BB and set a key/button for the Game Details page so you can easily access if you need.

The only extra pop-up is the media download confirmation done at the end. This is now due to the fact LB imports a game and downloads the media separately so the extra confirmation screen was added. There is no way to turn that on or off. If you desire that option please use the "Request a Feature" link located at the top of the forum under "Help & Support".

Do you get any error when it crashes or does LB just shutdown? Do you have logs turned on in your LB tools settings?

I do not believe there is a specific setting for this. This might be something you want to request a feature/feature upgrade using our link located under "Help & Support" at the top of the forum.

There is no Marquee Image Priority like there is for select other images. It has been asked for so hopefully at some point we can get this. LB default is to show the image locate in the Arcade - Marquee folder. In the absence of an image there is reverts to your Box - Front image priorities. In order to have the marquee show other images you would need to be able to code a PlatformMarqueeView.xaml and GameMarqueeView.xaml to show what images/data you like.

Try going into the Nvidia Display settings and creating a custom resolution of 1280x390 and set the scaling to "full-screen". I think that is what I did. You can also try these slightly modified marquee xaml files. Just drop them in the theme (or themes) you are using. Place them in the view folder. If you have no luck with the custom resolution these will take the 1280x720 setting and adjust the marquee images to fit in the upper portion of that resolution. It is a hack, but sometimes those cut lcd's do not play nice. PlatformMarqueeView.xaml GameMarqueeView.xaml

I do not recall what resolution on my non AMD cabinet is being ued. I can check. I do know on my AMD cabinet I had to use 1280x720 and it works with no issue.

There are quite a few users that use that display. I have one myself. Make sure you have the same percentage for dpi scaling on both screens. Also check your Hz. I think I first had an issue with mine being set at something other than 60 Hz and BB did not like it.

If you are requesting a new feature, requesting updating an existing feature, or requesting an update to a beta feature the "Request a Feature" is best. These are all by definition a "feature request". If it is about the new beta features and if it fixed a prior issue, has broken something previously working, or the feature is not working as intended that is what the beta threads are for. I know your posts asked if something was possible which is why I did not delete. However, I did feel it was worth a reminder post. Not solely at you, but for us all. The goal is to keep the two devs from having to weed through all unnecessary posts and keep data only related to proper feedback so they can focus on getting betas to a full release state. That's because users do not usually do what is recommended. There are thousands of tickets there and just 2 devs with only 24 hours in a day. If users would do as I mentioned there is a better chance we can track feature requests and better gauge the interest. Posting them here in the beta they get lost worse than they would on our bitbucket.

This has been mentioned several times in betas threads and will keep being reminded. If anything is a feature request 3 things are needed. Eventually I will just delete these posts without warning. 1. Do not post in the beta threads. 2. Use the feature Request button at the top of the forum under "Help & Support" 3. Open a new thread in the "Features" sub-forum and link the ticket from the Feature Request site. Beta threads are going to be strictly kept to providing the team feedback on beta features that are working or not. Anything else needs to be posted elsewhere.

Controller input types have been implemented in the latest betas. You can either opt into the beta by going into your LB options and selecting the check box to download betas. Or you can wait for the stable release when it is ready. From the beta 2 notes: New Feature: A complete management system has been built for specifying types of supported controllers for games, including a built-in database with known games, full flexibility for customization, and built-in badge images for various controller types. See Tools > Manage Game Controllers and the Controller Support section of the game add/edit screen for details

Likely something that would not be implemented as that could cause issues with emulators that require the rom file to be a certain name. Such as Mame.

Do you have any animations involved in those media elements? Are you using the most current version of the theme creator? It would probably be good to ask in Y2Guru's thread over here.

Unfortunately bezels have been discussed and is likely something not going to be tackled anytime soon. Not that it is completely off the table. You can read more about it in this thread.

It will not climb much as you add games. Here are images of a fresh install versus one with 30K games.
