Thanks for the information, Richard. That is very helpful -- unfortunately, I've not yet been able to replicate this problem on my computer. I did find some intermittent problems when using Vulkan (bezels were not showing up, though it did find the emulator process). Attached are screenshots of my graphics settings in dolphin. Perhaps you could test with these settings on your computer? I'll have to dig into this problem some more, probably examine the code a bit more closely.

I've tried your settings but unfortunately it is not working (same log). I will try to develop a dummy plugin that will only intercept the emulator process. Can i ask you which programming language you are using and the function you are using to intercept the process? (so i can try to replicate the issue)

Best regards and thank you for your help.

The most recent version of dolphin with which I've tested (and found to work) is x8915. It's possible the dolphin team has changed some of their window management code. Would you please consider testing with x8915 on your system, to see if this isolates the problem?

I've made a test with version dolphin-master-5.0-8911-x64.7z and a clean version of the plugin installation, the result is the same it doesn't seems to detect the process.  For your information Fade and Bezel are working with Mame. Here is the log :

[PSP plateform not grouping roms by region]

Ok, now i understand, when using the "scan for added rom" function, launchbox doesnt seems to automaticaly combine roms. I just delete and import all the directory and it worked.

[How to filter some region all the time?]

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to filter some region all the time. I don't want them to appear in launchbox or bigbox.

Best regards

[PSP plateform not grouping roms by region]

Hello everybody,

I recently created a PSP plateform in launchbox and it seems that the rom are not grouping by region in this plateform even if the game and the region are correctely detected. All the roms of different region for the same game a displayed separetely.

it works with other plateform so I would like to know if there is a trick to activate it with PSP.

Best regards

[is it possible to make ledblinky starts at the beggining of the startup video?]

I wrote a simple AutoHotKey script, it does 5 things

1) Start BigBox

2) Start the animation you want (infinite loop mode)

3) Wait the duration you want (it should be the duration of your startup video)

4) Stop the animation

5) Send the "Game Stop" command to ledblinky in order to display the Launchbox controls.

#Persistent
SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir "C:\HyperSpin\Utilities\LEDBlinky"  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.
Run, C:\Roms\LaunchBox\BigBox.exe ; Starts BigBox, you should replace it with your own BigBox path
Run, C:\HyperSpin\Utilities\LEDBlinky\LEDBlinky.exe Pattern73.lwax ; Patter73.lwax represent the animation you want to play, the file must be in your ledblinky lwax directory
SetTimer, mytimer , 20000 ; Set the timer to stop the animation, the value is in ms
return

mytimer:
SetTimer, mytimer , Delete ; Delete the timer 
Run, C:\HyperSpin\Utilities\LEDBlinky\LEDBlinky.exe 11 ; Stop the animation
Run, C:\HyperSpin\Utilities\LEDBlinky\LEDBlinky.exe 4 ; Send the game stop signal to display the launchbox controls
ExitApp
return

 

[is it possible to make ledblinky starts at the beggining of the startup video?]

Thank you for your answer. In fact I think it is very pleasant to have a nice video intro and a LedBlinky animation that can match the intro pace and/or colour. (I'm currently switching from HyperSpin and it was a nice feature)

I was thinking to make a script that will start Ledbinky startup animation and bigbox at the same time to solve this problem.

I would like to know if it is possible to start the ledblinky startup animation to start at the beggining of the intro video?
