I already tried and it doesn't work. Basically I've removed the part of the code that removed the video. And tried adding the code you sent me. I have a black screen and no video is playing. I feel like this code would be more what I'm looking for but also can't have the video to show <Grid ClipToBounds="True" Grid.Column="1"> <transitions:TransitionPresenter x:Name="vidsource" TransitionSelector="{Binding ImageVideoTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding ImageVideoView}" IsContentVideo="True" Visibility="Visible" Margin="-480,0,0,0" Width="{Binding ElementName=Canvas, Path=ActualWidth}" Height="{Binding ElementName=Canvas, Path=ActualHeight}"/> </Grid> Thanks for helping me !

I'm not sure we're talking about the BarTop theme or maybe I have an old version of it? Because there's unfortunately no code like you pasted <!-- VIDEO BACKGROUND --> <Viewbox Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="25" Grid.RowSpan="18" Stretch="UniformToFill" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center"> <transitions:TransitionPresenter TransitionSelector="{Binding ImageVideoTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding ImageVideoView}" IsContentVideo="true"/> </Viewbox> Here's my "WheelGamesView.xaml" file https://pastebin.com/1xVUr9ST Thanks for your help ?

Alright thanks a lot

Hi my dear friends! I have a bartop with a 16x9 Full HD screen. I want to use the 4x3 Hyperspin video pack from EmuMovies. I found what seems to be the perfect theme so far which is "Bartop" by viking. I think you're still active on the forum so maybe you could help me out with this! What is happening at the moment is that the video is stretched to 16:9. So the left wheel is overlapping the video and the video aspect ratio is broken. See attached image "Screenshot_2.jpg". I'm using the "WheelGamesView.xaml" and found out that this line seems to be what I'm looking for to edit <transitions:TransitionPresenter TransitionSelector="{Binding BackgroundTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding BackgroundView}" Height="{Binding ElementName=Canvas, Path=ActualHeight}" Width="{Binding ElementName=Canvas, Path=ActualWidth}" IsContentVideo="true" /> I've tried forcing the aspect ratio by giving it width and height properties like that <transitions:TransitionPresenter TransitionSelector="{Binding BackgroundTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding BackgroundView}" Height="1080" Width="1440" IsContentVideo="true" /> It works but the video is centered and no matter what I try it stays centered. See "Screenshot_3.jpg" I tried things like that before "content" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" HorizontalAlignment="Right" I've tried both VLC and WMP and WMP is laggy and have trouble loading some videos, so this is a no go for me. Who could help me align the video to the right keeping it's 4:3 aspect ratio? Thanks a lot :)-

These are all the ones missing from the official pack. Also find SPORTS, RUN & GUN & PUZZLE in page 16 of this thread, I haven't made those but I think they're awesome and gave me the idea of continuing in this way. I've made all of these because I'm sure a lot of people search these. Actually all of these are needed if you created the playlists with LB Mame importer. Hope you like ?

Hey guys! I'm using an old version of chdman that came with a .bat file to bath convert ISO games to CHD. I noticed that some CHD I got from elsewhere were way smaller than the one I'm producing. I read a bit on the internet and I saw my chdman version is outdated and there's a new version with the new gzip compression algorythm. I've downloaded Mame and took the new chdman.exe file but my .bat file script doesn't work anymore. Can anyone help me and guide me on how to batch convert to CHD with the new chdman? Current (OLD) code in the batch file: for /r %%x in (*.cue) do chdman -createcd "%%x" "%%x.chd" Thanks a lot!

Here we go @Retro808, I just modified it with an ending. I made 2 versions. One that mimic a retro television shutting off and the other one with a filmic dissolve more known as a fade out. So it's up to the user which one they prefer! Now it's a 15 seconds intro instead of 12. I agree with you that it was ending roughly. Hope you guys like it!

Hey thanks man! I'll try to work a version 3 with a longer intro. At first I wanted to make a quick video so it go quickly to the system list.

Though I'd share with you the splashscreen I made for my installation. Download: https://github.com/Emulga/BigBox-Splashscreens Hope you like it!

Hi, I'm making my video intro but wanted to know what are the size, codec, bitrate, etc recommended for a video intro. I also want to know if there's a place with bigbox and launchbox logos. Thanks.

Well that's really good to know. I think Demul fits in my standard of playable emulation. I think also it works with my fullset of cdi discs. They're great for saving ton of space! Thanks for your even more detailed answers I'm all excited to start my build!

Thanks for your detailed answers. The number 3 answer you gave me made me think of something else. 3A. How's the naming convention? Is it Hyperspin (like there's a gamelist and your roms needs the same name?). Or it's more like emulation station? You create your gamelist from your rom names and gather the information with the scraper? 3B. Like is it compatible with romsets that have a folder called wheel, snaps, box, cart, etc?

Oh damn, that's sad! I really wanted to finally discover this console as being a kid I never had the chane to get one. They are rare now and anyway I don't have any thrill to get real consoles now. Lots of people told me that there are great titles on the DC.

Really good informations here. I'll definitely try to setup my favorite PS3 games and see for myself! Thanks again!

Thanks for your answer! I'll have to try for the PS3. But I guess time go and emulators will be improved.

Awesome thank you! I'll miss my PS3 for some years until emulating it gets possible

Hi guys, I'm actually a Batocera user and I'm pleased with it for older computers. But I want to go to a more serious emulating multi systems computer and of course I mean LaunchBox. I have few questions: 1. I know I can set windows to automatically load big box after boot. Can I be able to use the system without a keyboard and mouse once it's all setup? I would like tu put this in an arcade cabinet, that's why. Like just pressing ON on my bluetooth controllers and go play. 2. How's the scraper? I'm really looking to fill most consoles with fullsets all scraped. I've achieve this on Batocera (Recalbox), it took me 4 months for like 45 systems. How good is the built-in scraper? Do I have to do this all by myself or I can download scraped romsets somewhere? Is it really good? I've tried OpenEmu on my imac for example and the scraper is really bad. Is most games have videos, 3d box, etc? 3. I've seen lots of nice theme. Lots of them were using game box. Can I tell the theme to use 3D box image instead? I saw these on some systems on this website. 4. Is there a Facebook user group community? 5. Is it the good choice? Honestly I feel like yes it is. Hyperspin looks like an old broken hard to configure thing. 6. How's the cloud actually working? I have an unlimited Google Drive account. I would like to backup save my library there in case of a crash. 7. I think theres a way to play the games on my iphone? If yes can I do it on LTE outside my house? Thanks a lot for your help and this awesome front-end!

It's a i5 4670K 4th generation I think. And I'll have both graphic cards. Will it work for my needs?

Hi, one of my friend wants to exchange me my PS1, PS2 and PS3 and all my games for his old gaming computer. It's outdated for today's gaming but I think that it's a good exchange for me to get a good emulation machine. I just want to verify the specs with you. Processor i5 3.5ghz 4 core Ram 8GB SSD HDD GPU GTX 550 and a GTX 760 (I guess I canno't SLI different cards so I'll have to use just one) I want to emulate up to PS2, Wii, Gamecube, Saturn, Dreamcast, PSX, etc. Will this work? Thanks for your help!
