The Papaw

Looks like we are in for some cool updated to LB. I wish it were possible to do Clean Media on a single platform, multiple platforms or everything, not just everything, ya know? I am excited about the video snap feature and can't wait to see what it will and will not do....thanks Jason

I just did it the hard way, thank you to those that replied

Yes Sir, there are actually 4 ddl files in the extracted folder, I also tried to move them out of the extracted folder into the plugin folder without any success. This is what it is throwing, if it helps any: Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information. App: LaunchBox Version: 10.15-beta-10 Type: System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException Site: System.RuntimeType[] GetTypes(System.Reflection.RuntimeModule) Source: mscorlib at System.Reflection.RuntimeModule.GetTypes(RuntimeModule module) at System.Reflection.Assembly.GetTypes() at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Windows.Root.LoadPlugins[T](IEnumerable`1 assemblies, ConcurrentDictionary`2& plugins) at (String , Form ) at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Windows.Root.LoadPlugins(String folderPath, Form splashForm) at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Windows.Desktop.App..ctor() at (String[] ) at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Windows.Desktop.Program.Main(String[] args) Recent Log: 7:46:01 PM Exception

@neil9000 I dropped the SappPasRoot into the plugin folder and when you try to open LB/BB it just crashes LB. I sent a msg to Axenn to see if they can tell me if it still works with the current version of LB

Thx, I will see if it still works, thanks to both of you.

Thx, I just did a quick look through the Third-party Apps and Plugins section and wasn't able to find anything like that. Maybe it was removed?

Is there an easier way to move/change the media data path? For example, lets say my entire LB setup is currently on HDD "D", I want to move all my images, videos, manuals, music, etc., to drive "E" and leave LB on "D". That way I can share the data with multiple pcs without having to waste so much HDD space with multiple copies of the same data. I know it can be done by editing each platform one at a time, as that is what I have been doing, but man that is a lot of work. Isn't there some way to edit files in Notepad++ or something to make it easier? I looked at the "Platforms.xml" and other files in the Data directory, even after making changes to some of the platforms, and can't find anything different.... Any help would be much appreciated...

If possible, I agree with Pixelpiper, other frontends like ARC for android are using the .scummvm format as well since the LB android is dead in the water for now

Thanks Jason, but if it was working in the past, and I haven't changed DirectX rights (never fool with that kinda stuff, unless something like this is brought to my attention), what should I check? Where do I need to go to check? I mean all was good, then not.

I will most definitely have to look into this, thank you for the reply

I don't have LB installed on "C" drive, so it generally wouldn't ask for admin rights, and with current win10, if you grant admin rights, it really messes with with NAS issues if the roms are stored on a NAS I do ignore it, just wanted to report it as a problem

So nothing has changed on my system, other than normal windows updates, how is it fixed?

Okay, done. I know you're busy with the MAME high scores thing right now, understandably. Hope this request doesn't find it's way to the wayside like when you minimize LB and and re-open it from from the taskbar, the sound is still going from post back a couple versions ago. Just out of curiosity, is anyone getting this error when they update to new beta version. been happening to me most about every time since v10. It seems to install fine, get the error, close app, then re-open and all is good.?

Ah, ty Neil. I didnt know this was a MAME thing, didn't know it mattered about the emulator used

So how will this affect folks that use RetroArch or does it, if I might ask?

@Jason Carr: Is it possible to get a Blank game Video added to LB like the Blank game image? So if there is not a video, we can have it fall back to a default video? Currently I am making a copy and renaming it, but that is a pain a big waste of HDD space.

I haven't a clue, only happened recently with the 2 posts. Everything else I have done has worked perfectly fine...

FF didn't work, I had 6 working, when I added more and saved, the original 6 are gone now...lol I should have left them alone hahaha I tried again, added 20 to upload, it goes through the process, only 1 showed on post. I tried adding them to the 1 showing one at a time and got 9 to show, good enough.

I am using Brave. I will try FF and see what happens and get back
