Strange Occurance

Hey everyone I am having a slight issue with Launchbox. I started adding metadata to all of the GBA roms I have that didn't originally get any when I added Game Boy Advance to Launchbox and after editing the first game it told me I had to add a emulator when I tried to click ok to finish the edit. I did so but couldn't for the life of me recall having to ever do so before. Then it happened with the next game I edited and then the next so I hit control A and then went into the bulk editor and changed the emulator to VBA (which it should have already been) then the next game let me edit so I thought great issue fixed then the next game told me I needed to choose an emulator. So I then went into tools and went to manage emulators edit VBA saw that VBA is default for GB GBC and GBA. So now I'm confused if I click on any of the games that already have metadata then it launches VBA but the ones without any meta don't have any emulator set even though I specified VBA when I added the folder

That... is strange. In the Emulator window, under VBA. The names of the Platforms its default for is the same exact name as what you specified the platform as right? Or... the name under the Emulator window is the same as the name in your left panel?

DOS76 said To add more to this I just noticed when I originally go to edit a game if I go to emulator first VBA is already set but when I link it to the DB the emulator field gets cleared.
That would have to be the bug then. Edit the games, grab the info then bulk edit back in VBA afterwards? It's dumb to have to do that but until the big gets fixed by Jason...

Very cool, Martin. Unfortunately my building skills are absolutely terrible (I blame it on all the time I spend coding), so I think I'm going to get a kit from Rec Room Masters. :) http://www.recroommasters.com/32_Pro_Upright_Xtension_Arcade_Cabinet_Emulator_p/rm-xt-32-pro-ee.htm But it's expensive...hence why I'm saving up.
