I have an issue with the background videos not working after an update. Works on the platform and I cloned my settings from my old configuration but I Just get the "small" box with the video / stock super nintendo logo at the top, and it's not giving me the vertical wheel after specifying that, it just has the up and down game select. I'm using the Unified theme like before. I upgraded to an ssd and still have the running version on my old drive in the same arcade and that works but not with the update.

Thanks, if it should happen again I'll try to delete the xml. Yeah FS-UAE I had some issues with the pointer emulation not working so great. Tried to play Lemmings / Populous and the lag was so bad it made it difficult to click on an object. WinUAE seemed to work quite a bit better, the pointer was flawless and emulation just runs super smooth on most stuff. Got it down where I can launch the games separately in Launchbox but there are a couple more tweaks to implement with disk swapping. I briefly went over your video but the lag with that emulator made me think it wasn't worth it. Was kinda surprised because I think that runs off the same basic engine as winuae.

I might post a good walkthrough on how to use WinUae with Launchbox as the FS-UAE doesnt cut the mustard in my opinion. I got it almost seemless so far.

Yes, what you said worked my friend. I did a Windows 10 search for the file and it only came back now. Oh, how I hate Windows 10. Maybe I'm the minority but... Anyways i went to launchbox/data folder for the newbies and also went to launchbox/backup folder. I tried the the most recent backup and got the same error then went back to the beginning of the day from the backup. In the data folder I renamed the current "listcache.xml" file to "listcachexml.old" I then renamed renamed the file I copied from that backup to the correct file name and it worked ☯.

Here is a good picture of the Arcade I created if anyone is interested. Love Launchbox/Bigbox combined with emumovies. I'm overly ambitious and will break stuff usually but I worked in IT for a bit so can fix some stuff. Only went as far as basic programming though...

Haha, yeah thats my son. He wears that all the time doesnt matter what season.

Which folder does that go in to by default?

Wasn't aware I could I'll try that right now, thanks!

Hey there, I've been amassing quite a bit of stuff in Launchbox and upgraded my motherboard in my retro arcade to work almost perfectly with the United theme except for attract mode which I disabled but not too important at this point. Recently I've been adding Amiga adf files and editing the settings for each game and I noticed when I would make a settings change there was a delay and the resolution of the launchbox program itself would "stretch" and sometimes freeze and crash the program after exiting the edit settings unless I gave it a bit of time to go back to the normal look or resolution. So I just tried to open it and I had an xml error before but not the same exact message and i was able to re-install from the most recent update and everything would come back to normal. At this point everytime i reinstall from the update launchbox folder it gives the same error. It will initially load with no content and then when i close and re-open it gives the error in the picture below. The last time I had the different xml error it did come up, but again not this time and I am hesitant to uninstall and re-install lest i lose everything. I'm open to suggestions on how to fix. Havent seen this particular error exactly like this before. Think my game count is 20,000. Thanks.

Thanks! Yeah that appeared to work. I don't mind using the GTA San Andreas video for the Windows platform also because it looks the same on either system. There are some games like Pinball FX 2 that has the long intro screen before you see the actual footage and I'm planning on cutting the first part out. StarCraft2 has some cool vids out there too that ill throw in. Thanks for responding.

Hi, I have a question about adding videos to Windows platform games. Seems like everything that comes from emu-movies is a still shot for the games like StarCraft 2 and I would like to add my own cut mp4's to those games which don't number too many at the moment. Noticed the GTA San Andreas for PS2 comes up with a cool video but when you add it to the Windows platform its a still picture. Kind of annoying but just wondering how I add the videos to those games and not sure if I know how to add the clear logos to the games but figured out how to for the platforms now. Thanks.

I was able to just delete the launch box folder and reinstall launchbox. I backed up my vids, music, and roms of course. Imported them back and re-scanned for everything. I'll update if it does it again.

Thanks. if it came down to it i could re-install but it would be helpful to find a fix. This has only happened on Windows 10. Seems like 7 is a bit more stable but i heard 10 manages memory better..

I just started getting this error lately when i try to import any roms. I successfully updated nintendo, supernintendo, nintendo64 without incident. I tried to manually input an emulator name for stella then assigned it to atari 2600 when i first noticed the problem. So even though i really dislike retroarch I decided to just put in on and use a preconfigured emulator but it is doing the same thing. Only other issue i noticed before is when i updated a Sega Genesis game "Sonic the Hedgehog" as a single rom it auto assigned it to sega game gear i believe then i corrected it back to Genesis. In short though, i can no longer add anything to my library without the error. I'm using a clean install of windows 10 pro, and installed a sandisk ssd for speed which is working out beautifully. Intel i3, 4GB ram.

I'm getting the same issue. It seemed to happen when i tried to manually enter an emulator and associate a platform. Now i get the error when trying to update any platform. I have windows 10 pro 64, and just did a clean install for this purpose. I haven't had the time to troubleshoot much yet but if you find a solution it would be appreciated.
