  1. Is there a way to limit the number of views a theme can show? For example, let's say on a given theme there are 6 views for platforms, but I really only like to use 3 of them. Can I possibly remove 3 of them from showing when I scroll through? Thanks, R
  2. Got the mod to update, but now I realize I have an older version of pinball arcade that is not compatible with the mod anymore. But for anyone that has the most recent pinball arcade, this should work.
  3. I do, but I was trying to find this on the website. Now I realize it's through an FTP client. Haven't been able to log in successfully but I'll figure it out... thanks!
  4. How does one find your EmuMovies FTP? Thanks, R
  5. I'm looking on EmuMovies but don't see the "upload here" section. Would love to check out the NES themes. Thanks! R
  6. Deleting the XML did the trick! Weirdly, there was a copy of the .xml file in the folder. Not sure why it was there, but maybe it was preventing the xml from saving? Anyway, thanks for your help. R
  7. Yes, if I delete the games and restart LB, they all come back. I tried deleting the entire platform and even that would come back on next launch. Weirdly when I right-clicked the platform name it says "that platform does not exist." But after a few clicks it stops saying that. So I can't find any way to get rid of the roms or the platform. Would it be helpful to edit the XML or delete the XML for that platform? Thanks, R
  8. To add to this, I've now tried deleting the platform entirely. Seems to work fine. But when I close LB and re-open, it's back. Again, it's not happening with any other platform. Help?
  9. I'm having a strange issue here. I have a platform with games listed that don't have working roms. So, I'm deleting the games in LB and re-importing the correct roms. In doing so, the games list goes from about 900 to 500 and afterwards everything looks correct. However, when I quit LB and start again, all 900 games are back in the platform. It's happened twice now, as if the database is not saving. I've done the same procedure with other platforms but this hasn't happened. Any idea what could be going wrong? Thanks, R
  10. Can anyone explain to a nuub what is the purpose or advantage of the plugins? I know it depends on third-party programmers but I'm wondering what some examples might be. Thanks, R
  11. Nice theme. Unfortunately in the view that shows favorite AND recent the video doesn't play. (Even though i can hear it) Any ideas? If the view that had video + recent was instead video + favorites it would be perfect. Thanks again. R
  12. Has anyone made playlists for favorite/classic games from Sega systems (Master System, Genesis, Saturn, Dreamcast) or Playstation systems they'd be willing to share? I'm not very familiar with the systems and would like to pair down my lists. Many thanks in advance! RF
  13. I'm having an issue where background music will play in the games list but not on the games detail page. (They are both selected in the options). Anyone else have that problem? RF
  14. Hi, I was trying to figure out how to get views to use screenshots when a video isn't available. On some lists it seems to work but others not so much. Thanks! RF
  15. Thanks for these instructions! Unfortunately I can't get it to work. When I launch it says "the mod is under maintenance" Not sure what this means as I am not familiar with mods, if it's something I'm doing wrong or it's the wrong version of the mod, etc. Would be so cool to get this to work. Thanks again.
  16. I like the idea but the problem is the platform lists become so long when they include playlists. It would be great if you could have a playlist in a platform category, but not listed in the main platform section.
  17. Just recently discovered Launchbox is downloading soundtrack music for many of the games. How cool! But I'm having a couple issues getting the options to work. I'm trying to set it up so, in Bigbox, when I'm on the Games list, it will play the sound from the video, but on the games detail list, it will play the soundtrack music. I think I have the options set correctly but it isn't working as expected. I have "prioritize music over video" turned on. When I toggle "auto-play music in games list", it works. However, when I toggle "auto-play music in games detail" it doesn't work -- it will only auto play the music from the video. Also, setting auto-play music for favorites and recently played only works sometimes, but not always. Am I missing anything? Thanks again for this awesome feature. RF
  18. Yes, although I was hoping you could put a platform in TWO categories, so "Nintendo Gameboy" could be in "handheld" AND "Nintendo." Thanks for the rest of the feedback.
  19. Hi, I'm new to LaunchBox and am very impressed! So far it's about everything I've wanted from a front end. However, the more I get into organizing a giant ROM collection, I'm finding a few things I wish could be done. - Would be great to designate a platform to more than one platform category. For example, it's good to have "handhelds" separate from "console", but I would also like to group all Nintendo consoles into a platform category called "Nintendo." - Would love the ability to hide a ROM from one list but include in a playlist. For example, I'd like to hide hacked ROMS from NES, but have them displayed in a playlist called "Hacked NES." - Add playlist folders so they can be grouped by subject. For now I'm using the sort-by feature which is nice. - Finally, would be great to be able to hide playlists or a platform so I can work on them before they display in Bigbox. Thanks again for this amazing software! Love the playlist feature! RF
  20. Hi, I've downloaded a few playlists from this forum. (xml files). However after putting them in the data/playlist folder, LaunchBox does not recognize them. In fact, the files are deleted when Launchbox is opened. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Rich
