Great work. Am I going mad (or is it just me), but is the music for Tapper on the Arcade theme glitched out? I absolutely love the theme (it's incidentally my fave game), but the music is a shame...weird thing is I swear it never used to be like that, but I downloaded it again and same thing

edit: weirdly sometimes it plays normally in BigBox and other times it plays garbled. No idea why, but at least I am not going mad!

Try to change the video plugin to Windows Media Player, if you are using VLC, in the BigBox settings.

buxilaks, thank you so much for your effort. I didn't have time to see the new videos at the time you had posted, only now I'm downloading them. Great work man, I will configure the playlists in my Launchbox ASAP ?

Great, I was looking for something just like this! Thanks !

Can you edit a intro video like the genesis one, but for the other "minis" (ps1, snes and nes mini) ?

Great intro video, I liked it a lot ! Could you make a shorter version?

Incredible work RetroHumanoid, one of the greatest contributions to this community along with your theme. 

I have a suggestion, the platform video for PSP begins with the emumovies gameplay of Final Fantasy Tactics, but, as you may know, it lags a bit, noticible by the sound. So , if you can, make one version with the gameplay of another game in the beggining, it would be great !

My guess,is that you added the artwork files from the Collections addon,to the Default themes folder. The Default theme and the Collections theme are 2 different themes...so in the installation instructions above it tells you:

"4.Make sure to have "Remember seperate view for each Platform" turned on in Options/Views

5.Browse to any platform that you have installed the Platform theme for,and press your "Switch Theme" Key,Then select the appropriate Platform theme from the list. If you have not programmed a "Switch Theme" key,you may do so by going to Options/Keyboard Mappings or Options/Controller Buttons."

You have to enter each Collection playlist,and set the theme to "Unified Refried - Collections"

Exactly ! I was configuring it in the wrong way, thank you.

Great Theme, beautiful, but I am having a little problem. In some Playlists Views, such as the one in the image attached, the gameplay videos aren't playing with the same size of the video borders. How to solve this problem?

Great Theme y2guru, congratulations ! Way better than the preview versions ?. Simple, clean, efficient.

Now, like before, I will make my suggestions:

- For the view that shows the blurred background image, I think that it is better to not move offscreen the info panels. What do you think ?

- Can you make a clear logo for the TurboGrafx-16 ??

Hahaha, this one was fun to watch. I liked it, good work !

Incredible theme CriticalCid, congratulations ! Simple, functional, beautiful and has a great performance, I loved it! Loved the little details you added to each system too.

Any plans to add community rate ?

@HugoBR I have found the issue (I found it by mistake)  and no it is not a performance issue as I noticed this on my 4.2ghz desktop running a GTX 1080.

Go into  BigBox Options, then Transitions and select a different transition for "Game Background Transition",  None, Slide Horizontal, Slide Vertical or Fade Fast seem to work the best.  

Let me know if this helped. 

Ahh now it worked !! I had to select None for the"Game Background Transition" , for it to work properly. Thank you !

Ah.. I’m replying via my phone but have you changed the big box video engine to windows media player?

Yes, I always select the WMP as the video engine, works better for me.

Thanks @HugoBR  I will take a look, but can you tell me which Game View is causing this issue?  you can check by going into BigBox option, then views and the current Game View will be displayed.

Basically in all views. I've made a video, the recording was very bad (sorry), but you can see the theme video resizing before the next game's video begins to play (in the video, it looks like that my BigBox is freezing when I'm changing the game, but this is only in the video, I can assure that is not a performance problem related to my computer). Look at the end of the video (00:16), you can cleary see the theme video dimensions changing.

Great theme y2guru , one of the best in my opinion. Loved the way you made the views, but I had a problem: in my desktop (1366x768), when I change some game, its theme video or background image size is modified before the next game's video begins. It is like the video/background image is resized before the next video/background image appear.

Also, one more question, is there a way for you to add the community rating rather than "Your Rating" ?
