    Also, the new version is having issues for me. I switched a playlist to Nostolgia, found navigating the list extremely choppy, and it ultimately froze after about 20 seconds.

    Can you explain how the custom backgrounds work? I checked the file you mentioned but couldn't figure out what to do or where the images would go. Thanks!

    Makes sense it doesn't show up for a platform's game list, my concern is more about playlists that come from multiple platforms. In that case it's nice to be able to see what platform the game is from. (Even if it's not marked as "include with platforms") Thanks for checking!

    Gotcha. I already have "Show Platform" selected however. I've been wondering if this is a BB bug. Can you get the platform to display in the details? (I have the same issue with other themes). Thanks for implementing that feature -- looking forward to it!

    Hey, would it also be possible to add "Platform" to the game details on this view? I've looked through the "Views" files and don't see this anywhere.

    Update on this: Since the official release, I am not getting any freeze or crashes.

    I'm having an issue where, in a game list, sometimes it will play the game soundtrack music AND the audio from the video. Sometimes, it will only play the music. (I only want the music). I have "Prioritize Soundtrack Music over Video Audio" selected, and "Auto-play music in games list". I believe this is a bug, but I wanted to make sure I'm not doing something wrong with the settings. Thanks! R

    No worries, I need extra coffee on Sundays...

    Thanks for the reply Lordmunkus, I'm already aware of this though. I'm hitting Scroll Lock, then TAB - THIS MACHINE and setting the joystick. The issue is at some point (possibly after restarting the computer?) the joystick controls I set are no longer there. (Not saving). Thanks again.

    I have a question about setting controls with MAME for Apple II (and possibly other platforms). When I use MAME for Arcade, I hit TAB and set the controls, it always saves them. However, when using MAME for Apple II, when I go TAB - THIS MACHINE and setup the joystick, at some point I've noticed the controls are reset (not saved) and have to re-enter the joystick controls. Anyone else have this issue? I assume it's some issue with using MAME for different platforms. Thanks! R

    The video issues are fixed for me in the official release. Everything feels smooth and fast. Thanks Jason!

    Sounds like I need to get another 8 GB of RAM.
  13. alnyden
    Sounds good. I didn't notice any issues a couple betas ago, it was really smooth and fast.
  14. alnyden
    I have 8 GB. Thanks Jason.

    With the latest beta, the videos seem more pixelated/garbled than before. It doesn't happen every time (maybe 30-50%) and it clears up after a few seconds.

    Hey @eatkinola, regarding my freezes with Bigbox, I believe I'm using VLC not WMP. I was scrolling through a text game list and it was quickly sluggish. It froze both times within 5-10 seconds. I've been using your theme for a couple weeks and it has never happened before so I really think it might be something with the beta.
  17. alnyden
    Updated to the new beta -- most lists are scrolling smoothly except I've crashed twice while navigating a text list in the Nostolgia theme. (BigBox froze, no error message) This hadn't happened before this beta update. Thanks!
  18. alnyden
    I can confirm this happened to me as well. (Bigbox did not remember the new theme) I think it was a playlist, not a platform. I'll try to check the XML this weekend.
  19. alnyden
    UPDATE: On further inspection, the box is not actually blank, but the font has become so dark it's almost impossible to see. Also can not see which item has been selected. Thanks!

    Not fixed in Beta 9: After I change a theme for a platform or playlist, when I return to that platform and try to change the theme again, the theme change box is empty. Once the box is empty the theme options don't return. It's happened on 3-5 platform/playlist's that I've changed. Thanks, R

    Here's the view where I'd like to change the background. Thank you!
  22. alnyden
    Just trying out the theme for the first time and loving it. Great work! What I was hoping to do was make a backup (alt version) of the theme and change the background image depending on the playlist. (Preparing for theme-specific playlists in Bigbox update). I created a copy of the whole folder, then in Styles-Nostolgia found the background image path and changed it to the new folder name, but after doing this, it still displayed the old image. Any tips on how I could accomplish this? Thanks again! R
  23. alnyden
    Thanks. I found "video control" defined in one of the view docs and was able to change it.

    One more question on the new theme selector. I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I'm doing something wrong. I duplicated a theme, gave it a new name, and replaced the background video within the theme's folder. However, when I select that theme in the new theme selector, it does not change the background video, it still uses the one from the original theme.
  25. alnyden
    After restart, it's working again. Also, two bugs found with the new theme chooser. After selecting a new theme for "Colecovision", the next time I open the theme box it's empty and can't change it back. (Only for this platform, doesn't happen with others). Also, after changing a theme for a playlist, it did not save after rebooting software. Love the new features! R
