I hope someone can reply, we are only here to defend LB work and future I think that talking togheter is the way to find a better way to work and having pleasure with our games! finger crossed 🤩

I totally agree! Sometimes seems that editing xml or other stuff makes people cool. Instead it is a big waste of time and I dont like doing it. Sometimes I have to do but I prefer to do something else. Moreover, LB/BB should point to sell copy to all. To reach this target it should keep on simplify a lot of part. Managing playlist, platform is one of the base core, I suppose. I appreciate a lot retroarch integration, the new mame import and so on. I hope they can add also these standard feature. I think that there is a problem on the feature request. People that does not like to program or "hard edit", loose interest in putting feature request. Using bitbucket is not so easy like using a forum. Seems that became a "specialist feature request". Anyway... I love LB and BB and the guys that works here, I am only thinking on how to make our games better I hope that there is space for some reasonable critic... it is my work, cannot do different 🤣

thank you for your reply! I have read it, but I have not thought that old playlists should recalculate it each time...what a noob. So I have removed autopopulate MANUALLY (ehi, it is incredible that we have not a playlist bulk editor, I have added it immediately to future request: https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/6958/playlist-bulk-editor Vote it if you use LB) and loaded BB two times (I have read that the first time have to precache new playlist) but has changed quite nothing, maybe a little less, now it take about 5 minus I think Do you think it is correct now? I hoped in something better...and I have lost 1 hour to change more than 100 playlist...argh Anyway thank you again for your advice!!

Hi, I had my BB with about 100k roms and systems, playlists, loaded in very few time, maybe less than 1 min. Usually when the startup video (30-45 sec) ended, bigbog usually started. Then I have updated mame and added few platforsm but doubled my roms to 210k and now when I load BB it takes a very loooong time, about 7 min to load. I can understand that it takes more...but so much? What is strange is that hd seems not to load all the time, seems that there are idle times. It is normal? There is something that I can do?

I love it! A complete pack, you have all here! Do you have LB/BB? Do you like playlists? So, download it and enjoy! -
The bezel is the only one that like me (that I use a lot I mean), on mame I am not able to set it, so it'll help a lot! I'd like also that bezel work on PAL roms...I'd like to help on that if necessary... Anyway, it is late I know, I have added 3 requests for the next pool that I find very kind and usefull. I hope you'll read them.

I try to reply. I hope I have understood. When I re/import a platform I usually disable the image dl, it is a faster way. Then I check for media and I start to download. When I have reimported mame rom set, for the letter 0-I it was quite fast to dl new images, video and so on. I have added now about 50 Gamecube roms and it has dled all in few minutes (LB and emumovies, complete all) Anyway, it is happened also to me to have some rom "missed" during import process. But talking here on forum I have discovered that I was importing not all togheter but dividing in parts, that can create some problems. Maybe a rom has 2 different names and you import the first one, then LB see it like duplicate during the second import phase. Importing all togheter resolve this. Hope that can helps, sorry if it doesnt help

Launchbox Forum Playlist, do you want to create it?
xevious1974 replied to xevious1974's topic in Playlists & Playlist Media
ok, it is not a good idea, maybe you are right. I'll prepare my personal top 100 and I'll share with you all! Sorry to bother you I love you all anyway, you know! -
it is never happened to me. Maybe your are using it in fullscreen? And change pc resolution? I have read something about it in the forum, if I remember well I use it in windows mode and with bezel and it works great.

Bigger! Are you wondering if you miss a platform in your collection? Have you not enough playlists to manage your collection? Come here and see. Yes, you miss something.- 10 comments

Ok, I have downloaded all! I have taken a look and I think that videos are quite perfect. When I have time I just cut them a little to be more relevant, also the year video, divided into the different decades. I have done 2 videos in the past...it's a very long work! Also cutting is a time consuming action! Interesting platform the Pademoniun one. I should copy that. I usually don't use his videos, are too long for my taste, but they are very nice and having a dedicated part can be smart. I have also watched the image zip...what a hard work to take all that images!!! It is very usefull having all that images in one places now! I have seen that you miss one...no, I haven't look all, not yet! 🤣 So I'll attach here if you want to add it for your use. Just taken from the net...somewhere...cant remember.

Hey guys, I am just waked up with a great idea! Ahahah We are all together here to "make our games beautiful" but we have not our playlist! We should create it! What do you think? Each of us could post his personal top 5-10 here and with enough data we can create a top 50-100? Launchbox Forum playlists! I think it should be funny and maybe we should meet strange or unknown titles. We should put the titles that we truly love, not the objectively the best. A true personal playlist. I put here my list, platform and title: C64 IK+ Psx Tekken 2 Arcade Ghosts'n' Goblins Windows The cat lady SNES Donkey Kong country GameCube Luigi's mansion N64 Super Mario 64 C64 nebulus Arcade windjammer Amiga 500 kick off 2 Can be a good idea?

Thank you a lot! I'll download all and watch! Very interesting choice! I like them! Thank you again!

Really???? YOU ARE AWESOME! Ok, I dont want to ask too much, I'll try to be reasonable 🤣 What I love of your BEST playlist is that I can know new games! For example "I love katamari" for playstation! Or some hidden nes gems. Or games that I have forgotten, like MDK for psx. I put your list in my collection and I search for each missing, if any, game. The "problem" is that when you have more than 1000 games, you are lost! You cant try them all. So it is very usefull having some direction. Also the new feature "related games" is awesome. I also put cracktro and magazine, I love having my digital world all togheter Ok, I stop bothering you...it's a professional deviation 🤣 Here the top 10 missing video: - CHD required - Vertically oriented Games - UK - Years 1970-2010 (yes there are 5 video, I am cheating 🤣 ) - FUCK! - Unreleased - Best of Adult Swim OK I stop here! Thank you again!

Dear McFly, I love your playlists! I have inserted some in my collection and I like to explore games that I dont know. The Best collection (gold, silver...) are great additions for me. But I have a big limit in this, I usually insert only playlist if I am able to add also a playlist video. For Sega a nintendo I have inserted the tv commercial (I am sure I have stolen the idea and logos somewhere, maybe from you!) but for others I have not. Amiga, C64, Intellivision...what do you use? have you also a clear logo? Anyway, thanks a lot, there are a lot of awesome idea that I want to add (like UK games or "FUCK!" I was laughing a lot, thank you!)

I had same issue at the first launch. So, I have quitted and relaunched...all solved...dont know what happened.
-
I have a similar interest in that. I have inserted in my collection some Videogames magazine, anime, music video, cracktro, manuals, and game music. All these have not media that I can download, so I build them myself. Anyway, sometimes, there are some post in download section that have similar media. And some years ago, there was a plugin that could scrape media and info aboout movies. I dont think it work now, dunno. But I think that if you want to share something...you can do it! Posting artwork, dvd box, flyer and posters, fan media should be appropriated. We have a forum full of this things, haven't we?

Thank you so much! Great add to my second monitor!! Thank you! -
Thank you! I like them a lot!!! -
Hi, anyone have media (video, clear logo or other) for the CHD required and vertical oriented games playlist? ty in advance
-
Hey @Lordmonkus you have helped me a lot! I have searched a little following you (hyperspin rename tool, then Launchbox rename media tool) and I have found that Launchbox can read media file that are named like the rom LB title AND rom file! So I am just copying in the right dir to show them. Later I'll use media clean tool to remove the duplicated video Thanks again for the tip!
-
Thank you a lot for your answer! I'll search following your tip!
-
Thanks a lot Lordmonkus Very usefull information! I have download the Multimedia File, there a lot of video that I have not in my arcade video folder. But I have a problem! The video files are named like the file rom not how LB name them. So...there is a way to update the filename according to the name of the roms? So I can use them in my LB/BB? Or...I have to do manually? thank you!

Onsalo, to make you an example, what Retro is telling you is very important. But to understand it you have to get the difference between "playlist" and "platform" concepts, that in the beginning are not so clear. Maybe you already know that, but it is an example on how much are important the word that here are used. Ok, I'll go back to study phylosophy... sorry for the disgression

Yes, I can understand you very well. It is some years that I am using this software, and I have learned a lot, but I am a total noob yet. It's not my work so I tend to forget what I have learned. But it is the reason for which I use it, because it is very simple and slowly you can learn a lot and the result is great! So, keep on using it and try to watch some tutorial or try to do simple changes. Explore the option menu in BigBox, there are tons of option but at start only few are really important and impacting.
