This is great!

Anyone have a tip for adding these magnet links? I have never used them before, and nothing is there to re-check or download when I add them.

Thanks! I don't know how I missed that - I went through that screen like twice....

Can Bigbox be configured to start up in the Platform view rather than the Platform Category view?

Thanks. I was using those, when I follow them exactly I get an error updating Pacman and adding in the patch command. It complains about unsigned packages.

Do you have any tutorial / instructions you use to compile this version. I have no issue using this one - but was looking to just learn how to do it myself. After a couple hurdles - I get to the point trying to apply the patch (suppression_0237u3.txt) - and get the following error from the patch command : Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

I hide games with no art. For my arcade playlists - I do by "platform" (Mame, Daphne, Sega Model 2 etc.) , and Under Mame - I have playlists for 4 Player, SHUMPS, Beat Em Ups, Classics, etc. Not sure I love this - and am interesting in seeing what others do.

Thanks - that worked. I knew I was missing something simple - had to set a key to change the theme.

Is there a way to use Coverbox for all platforms except Arcade? Also what platform videos do you guys use along with CoverBox?

I am going through with trying to learn how to create a platform video, and have a few conceptual questions. I don't have the exact toolset you do - and don't expect you to know the details of these tools, but I want to get an idea of the process for making the video. For the image editing I am using GIMP For the video editing I am trying out Filmora9 For the video editing piece - what I have found I can do is use the green screen effect to insert a video into the "picture" area on any of the TVs / Displays. I think this will work - but wanted to check if this is the proper way to insert a video. I also wanted to understand how the process to create the playlist videos. I imagine this process is more complex with all the TVs at different angles, some of which are "3-D" rotations. Is it safe to say changing these videos would be more complex for a beginner and probably not the place to start? Any guidance on this part of the process would be appreciated. Thanks

Quick question on the MAME bezels from the bezel project. I am using RL for my bezel system - but wanted to see how others were handing clones/versions of the Roms that don’t match the bezel project. Some of the versions of Roms LB imports don’t match the folder in the bezel project (I.e rom in LB will have ‘u’ at the end). I have played around prioritizing different regions but it happens for different rims no matter what. I am working on a rename utility - but didn’t know if anyone else tackled this before.

I think this is a classic “to each his own” topic. I use RL for the fade screens, bezels, and pause. I haven’t used any of that in LB because I had it setup already in RL. Personally I like the flexibility and customization RL gives me. Most times I never need to use it- but it is handy when I do. Recently I used the UserFunction capability to create core specific devreorder.inis for Retroarch, since I used different controllers for different cores. So I like the abstraction it provides and plan to continue to use it.
