Is there a way to force BigBox to use the "default" monitor, rather than choosing 1 or 2? I have a setup where I change monitors with a program (TVLauncher) for gaming. #1 is my Primary, but when I run the program, it makes #2 the Primary. Almost every program I'm using with this works as expected, except for BB. It always goes to 1. I know I can change it to 2 within BB, but that makes it a pain if I am needing BB for checking or testing things, I always have to change it back to 1. I have tinkered with the <PrimaryMonitorIndex> in the "BigBoxSettings.xml", like setting it to 2 or leaving it blank, but nothing seems to work quite right.

I finally got this to work with Yuzu. I was running Yuzu as Admin. I changed that and it works just fine now. But just so folks know, this can re-introduce a current bug in Yuzu concerning threaded optimization.

I am using the <ESC> on keyboard & <ESC> via controller automation. I use a lot of home automation stuff. So when I game, I give Alexa a couple commands and it switches PC video and audio output to Bigscreen 4k hanging over the gaming PC, launches BB, etc.. After that I really need to use the controller as much as possible.

Hey Joe, this just doesn't make any sense to me (not your reply, the results I get). I am able to accomplish what @Koroth was doing with RPCS3 with a script like this rather than the compile and script he is using: Run, "D:\Gaming\DS4W Off.bat" $Esc:: { WinClose, ahk_exe rpcs3.exe Run, "D:\Gaming\DS4Windows" } I can add the same script to Yuzu and it works the same, but the goal was to do the opposite. However, if I simply reverse the order of the 2 "Run" lines, it won't execute the 2nd "Run". Run, "D:\Gaming\DS4Windows" $Esc:: { Run, "D:\Gaming\DS4W Off.lnk" WinClose, ahk_exe yuzu.exe } It will start DS4 but just won't stop it.???? UPDATE: It has to have something to do with Yuzu, it works just fine with other emulators.

Wow, above my head, TY for posting it, maybe I can figure it out. Again, thanks

What did you use for this part:? " (All this via the Running Autohotkey tab for Rpcs3.)"

You been a great help and I appreciate your time. I understood most of that, but not how you compile an exe from a bat file???

@echo off taskkill /F /im DS4Windows.exe exit

So how did you accomplish this: "so I use an elevated script to exit DS4Windows when I start a game in Rpcs3. Then when I exit a game in Rpcs3 I run DS4Windows again. (All this via the Running Autohotkey tab for Rpcs3.)"

I was trying to do the same thing a few months back, but never got it working. Recently, I have had a couple PC games having issues when DS4 is running, like Trine 4 and a couple others. So I thought I might just call on DS4 per emulator as needed. Got to have the gyro features in Yuzu and Cemu, ya know?

Sadly, doesn't work either. I know nothing about AHK, is there anything Win10 needs that I amy be missing? Everything on system is up-to-date. I have a bat file to kill it that works. I tried to add it to AHK: Run, "D:\Program Files (Portable)\DS4Windows\DS4Windows.exe" $Esc:: { Run, "D:\Gaming\DS4Windows\DS4W Off.bat" } It doesn't work when I add it to the script (if I called it right)

Currently working with Yuzu I did not have "Hide DS4 Controller" checked. I DID have "Close Minimizes" checked, sure never thought of that one, lol, but unchecked it now. Do have "Start Minimized" checked as well. Does DS4 end for you when you exit a game? I still have to exit it from the taskbar. Here is SS of DS4 settings and LB to make sure we are on the same page here....

Would I need to include the emulator in the WinClose line as well as DS4?

I tried it both ways, still not ending DS4. Tried this: Run, "D:\Program Files (Portable)\DS4Windows\DS4Windows.exe" $Esc:: { Process, Close, DS4Windows.exe } and this: Run, "D:\Program Files (Portable)\DS4Windows\DS4Windows.exe" $Esc:: { WinClose, ahk_exe DS4Windows.exe } DS4 keeps running

No, neither way is killing the process. It continues running. I assume I am to put it in the emulators Exit AHK Script section, correct?

I tried them both, will I need to edit path for them to match how I am calling it? Run, "D:\Program Files (Portable)\DS4Windows\DS4Windows.exe" $Esc:: { WinClose, ahk_exe DS4Windows.exe }

This is working great for me running DS4Windows. I added to the emulator start script. How do I kill the process using AHK when I leave the emulator/exit game?

Appreciate the reply. I would think there would be a way to add something to remember the details and autofill it if chosen, rather than having to type it in every time. I seem to have to do it every single time. For example, when using the Missing Media feature. I have to enter it each time I change to a different media type if it uses the scraper. It was a thought.

It would be nice if LB would remember your Epic Games login details rather than having to enter them every single time you use it to scrape. An option to select to remember would be best.
