The Papaw

I am trying to upload a larger updated zipped file (actually compressed with 7z) to one of my posts. It is 1.7gb in size. It will upload to about 1/10 of the way and craps out with a 200 error. I can't find any issues on my end as far as ISP or connection, get 5-8 upload speeds. Just curious if anyone else is haaving similiar issues with larger files? I uploaded same file to G-Drive with no problem

@Jason Carr I am not 100% sure, but I think ya got it fixed in this one Jason. Been editing a couple hours without it happening a single time!!! Keep your toes crossed..

@neil9000I have always had similar issues with LB and other apps as well with a WMR headset as far as it being detected as a monitor, so much I usually keep it unplugged until I want to use it, if that helps any.

Just want to report the audio for video snaps continuing to play seems to have gotten WAY worse for me in v11.3.14. Originally reported

Today I can't get the Games DB to update. After the download hangs up and I cancel and try again, I am getting this if I try again: When I close and re-open LB, it is just hanging again on the download. After waiting 20 minutes or so, it worked

Was trying to download update and it gets hung on me during the download process. It has happened in the past a few times since maybe 11.3.2. I thought it was my internet, but now thinking it is more LB related maybe. It also happens sometimes when LB tries to update the DB file as well. It is hung now, been so for like 15 minutes so far. I can cancel it, close LB, re-open LB and it usually works the 2nd time around. When it does it when LB is downloading the DB, LB has to be closed for it to try again, if I just cancel and try to search for meta data again, and it prompts for the download, it hangs again, until LB is re-launched. Even though it is hung now, I am still getting great speeds with speedtests, etc. No issues with downloading other things using IDM or anything else. So not sure what it causing the hangups just with LB?

Just to want to report the audio issue I had posted a ways back with video snaps still an issue in v13.3.12:

Just want to update, this is still happening with v13.3.12

FIXED in 11.3.11

I am using the CriticalZoneV2 - BlueBox theme, when I do the <CTRL> B, it looks like it is trying to load the default theme or something, the wheel is more like the default. The first image is the 1st error, 2nd image (2nd error) pops up immediately after 1st. The CriticalZoneV2 - BlueBox theme looks nothing like the screen shots. I removed all the themes but this one and the default ones. Also tried deleting both LB & BB cache to check if that was part of it. It works fine if I just run BB, only does this when I do the <CTRL> B

When I have LB running and try to do a <CTRL> B into BB, it is trying to go into some other theme instead of the one I am using with lots of errors. Any one else tried this or having issues with it?

I uploaded a video way back in the 11 betas where audio from video snap gets stuck sometimes, even when you go to another game with a different video snap, only way to stop it is to close LB and wait for LB backup process to end. That is still occurring, just thought I would let someone know. But I was able to edit for hours yesterday without a single crash I may have asked this before: If it isn't to hard to add, it sure would be nice to have "Open Videos Folder" added to the context menu since all the new video stuff has been added to LB, JMO

I just wanted to give a little update on the quoted issue. I have had crashing issues pretty much since v11 started. After 11.2 things got much worse. I updated to 11.3.10 last night, This morning, I have only been working with the editing side so far (where most all of my crashing was occurring), but in the last 2 solid hours of editing, I have NOT had a single crash. I would have had so many crashes previously in every version from 11 to 11.3.9, especially the 11.3.? versions I have no idea what was changed in 11.3.10, but it has made a HUGE, HUGE difference for me. I haven't changed a single thing concerning my system, even still using 2 separate NAS drives (one for roms, one for media). Like I said, only updating info on all the crashing posts I have done during editing. Not tested anything else much. BETTER & BETTER!!!

Hey Jason, I mean legitimate crashes, click the OKAY button when adding or editing a game and "POOF" when pre-existing videos are already in place, LB closes and the process is no longer running period. Like a kill switch on the EXE lol. Beta 9 is out, so let me see how things go with it, as I said in the last post, Beta 8 made much improvement for me, I wasn't being sarcastic or anything, it really got better for me with Beta 8, hoping even better with Beta 9. Just so ya know, I have tried a few different things that may be unique to my system, like disabling the Optane memory (since it is like a ram/cache drive), done full update of windows, including updating from windows v1909 to v2004. Disabled all over-clocking, etc. None of them helped. I am wondering if most of my crashing issues are related more on the locations I am using for my media and rom storage. Being on 2 different NAS drives. I use one drive mapped as "Y" for my roms and a different drive mapped as "Z" for game media (images, videos, manuals, music, etc.). Not sure if that's the problem, but a possibility. So it may be something I will have to deal with like getting a 14TB or 16TB HDD to get the roms and media back on a single drive. I have 3 PC's and 3 Nvidea Shields in my network, all using the same set of roms and media, to keep from having multiple copies of it all. Hang in there buddy, like I said, it is getting better and better. It'll get there. Will report good or bad with 11.3.9, hopefully it' working even better than 8

My install hung a couple times during the download process of v13.3.8 as mentioned by others, probably not LB related. But I am tickled to say, I have had far, far less crashes with v13.3.8. When I manually add a game, it auto focus' to the game if I have no pre-existing video for it, if I have a pre-existing video, it sometimes crashes, but when it doesn't crash and adds the game, it doesn't auto focus on newly added game, but back to top of the games of the platform. Getting better and better!

@Jason Carr: Hey Jason, got videos fixed, deleted the posts, was the video tick in the game details, have no idea how it got un-ticked?? They no longer auto-play, is that something new?

Using Brave browser as well, it is good now for me also.

@Jason Carr: Hey Jason, was going to download stable release of LB from the normal download section, like a newby, got this instead, thought you might like to know.

@Jason Carr Hey bud, you may have misread my post, the command line is working for me.

I actually set up the Future Pinball platform last week (after I installed beta). When I was setting it up, I read somewhere not to use some of the older ways of doing it, but simply add "/open %romfile% /play /exit" (without quotes) in the Default Command-line Parameters. It is working great for me. I can't get any pause screen button combos to work and the exit button combo takes me back to LB without an exit screen and opens the context menu on the table I was playing. But haven't spent much time with all that yet....

Yes Sir, exactly what I do. After I add a new game, it jumps back to the top. I will check it again, maybe tomorrow, I reset explorer on the pc to see if it might be causing some of my issues. I have an issue that when LB is open and I start clicking on png files, Photos just hangs on a black screen. I can close LB and click all day long and can't get it to happen. And sadly, none of happened until this round of betas

Thx for reply, on the focus issue, you totally lost me "if the game is in the current sidebar filter", I clicked on the WINDOWS platform (that focus' ALL Windows games), added a WINDOWS game, like I have done forever...lol. Just reporting my Real World usage and findings. When scanning for new roms, I can't say I actually looked, and assumed it was getting everything. Glad to know. Suppose I got 20,000 roms to go through to look at their names now to see how many have gotten skipped... Maybe I need to go back to v10.15 and sit this out...hahaha

PC Specs: ASrock Z390 Taichi with 8086k clocked @5ghz 32GB of 3200 RAM EVGA 1080ti FTW video card 8TB internal drive (250GB for OS, the rest is D drive) Intel Optane 32GB model few other HDD's internal set up as raid for backups, All drivers up-to-date on all devices including BIOS I have been running same hardware setup for almost 2 years now I'm using LB 11.3.4 installed on Drive D (internal hdd) Roms are all stored on Drive Y (mapped drive on NAS) All media is stored on Drive Z (another mapped drive on same NAS) Still on Windows (1909) I had NET core installed I believe, but was prompted to install when LB updated to 11.3.2 if not mistaken, which I allowed. The focus issue was working in 11.3.3, but when I updated to 11.3.4 it stopped. had a lot less editing issues with the video snaps as well in 11.3.3. Anything else you can think of or might be of any help????
