Previously, Big Box remembered which theme I had associated with each platform/playlist. Recently, I switched the main theme to Unified - Refried. Since then, or around that time, all other platforms & playlists have changed to Unified - Refried as well. Big Box has forgotten the previous associations. Hope this makes sense, thanks.

I'm not sure when this happened (this beta or previous release) but BigBox lost all my associations between platforms/playlists and themes.

I've been having an issue where, in certain playlist categories, the display will get stuck. The video still plays but I can't navigate to different selections or back out of the current view. I haven't tested it enough to be sure if it's always the same categories or when exactly it happens, but I thought I'd mention it now in case anyone else is experiencing the same thing. I don't seem to have the same problem in other themes. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply Jason. However, I don't see "Has none of the values" after selecting the Platform field. I DO see it when I select the Genre field. Genre also lists "Has all the values" "has at least one of" and "Has none of the values". Under "Platform" I only see "Is equal to" "Is not equal to" "Contains" and "is empty"

I want to create a playlist where the Genre = Pinball, but the Platform "Is not equal to" Future Pinball AND Pinball Arcade. So I created the following fields in the Playlist "Auto Populate" tab. - Genre = pinball - Platform "Is not equal to" Future Pinball - Platform "Is not equal to" Pinball Arcade. However, this does not work. When I try to exclude both platforms, neither is excluded. If I only exclude ONE of them, then it works. So it seems you can not use "Is not equal to" for more than one platform. Is this by design, or a bug? And is anyone else having this problem? Thanks for any help! R

Thanks for the updates! Did these favorite/playlist icons make it into the new update, or is this something separate? Thanks again Retro!

Does anyone have a Commodore 64 favorites playlist they'd be willing to share? Thanks in advance!

Hey guys. I am really enjoying @Scratcher's game backgrounds, but realized they don't work well with theme videos since they often use the same artwork. I had the idea it would be nice to be able to toggle between gameplay & theme videos with a hotkey, without having to go into the options menu each time. I created a bitbucket ticket with this in mind. Please consider voting here: https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/4643/bigbox-request-add-hotkey-to-switch

With the creation of so many incredible Big Box themes, and using different themes for each platform or playlist, I find that some look better using a theme video, while others look much better with a gameplay video. (aka Retrotastic with game backgrounds that use similar artwork to the theme video). To be able to switch quickly between the two, it would be great to have a hotkey that toggles theme vs. gameplay video without having to go in and out of the options menu each time.

Something odd I noticed, and sorry if this has been discussed before. When I am in the Apple II platform list (Using Unified - Apple II theme) I get the checkered background. However, when I am in an Apple II playlist but using the exact same theme (Unified - Apple II) I get the white and pink background. Using the same theme, shouldn't I get the same background? Just wondering if there's any way to get the checkered background in a playlist. Thanks again for the great work on this theme!

Gotcha. I'll update and try again. Thanks for checking!

Anyone else getting corruption errors on zip files with Scratcher's game background packs? I'm getting them on the Neo Geo packs, Konami, Capcom, and possible a few others. Thanks again @Scratcher these packs are amazing! R

Nice!

FYI I just noticed the same issue (star ratings appear in the video screen) on the "Retrotastic Quick" theme. It only happens in the first view.

Hey Retro, are they on your website? Thanks for all the amazing work that you do!

Just noticed in the view w/o box art (thanks for that by the way), the star ratings show over the middle of the video instead of the top left screen.

Thanks for the update!

Found one more bug. If you have a default background where an image goes into the video area (or a background for a playlist or anything else), if a game specific background replaces it, you will still see the default background in the video area, although the rest of the background is replaced. Thanks and really enjoying the theme! R

That's perfect, thank you!

I've noticed one bug on the theme. When there is no video, it plays a slideshow of still images. Very cool. But then, when I switch to other platforms that have videos, the last image always stays on top and the videos (while heard) can not be seen. I have to close the theme and re-open it to fix. R

Does anyone have a clear logo for "Game Magazines"? Also, is there a transparent icon for "Big Box" that has not only the cube but also the words "Big Box"? Thanks in advance for any help! R

Amazing. Finally a great theme for pinball!

What’s the latest on the transparent cabinets? Excited to see people working on this! Thanks guys!
