DOS76 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 In Bulk 1 Go into the platform you want to edit and hit control+a this will select all of your games 2 Go to tools on the menu and click it 3 Choose Download Metadata and Images 4 Run the wizard (If you already have some images then click the option to download but don't replace any existing data. Individually Choose a game and right click on it click edit (or hit Ctrl+E or use your cursor navigate to edit and press the enter key all three methods will work) If the game is linked to the database just click the download Images/Media button in the bottom right of the edit form. It should then offer you checkboxes for any media available from the local DB or from EmuMovies if you have an account. if the game isn't linked to the database hit the Search for Metadata butotn in the top right. if it finds anything then repeat the above steps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptoleary Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 Could not download file a ecception occured during a web client request thats the error code im getting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 No I don't use the LaunchBox game directory at all on most of my installs. Have you tried downloading LaunchBox again don't erase your LaunchBox.xml but download the program again and replace everything except the XML.

DOS76 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Are you doing that from inside of LaunchBox? I know if the smartscreen pops up from there you can't run the program unless you go outside of LaunchBox and agree to run it from there first. Where do you have LaunchBox installed?

DOS76 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 can you take a screen shot of your error message and post it also when the errors come up does it offer you the option to keep the information anyway? And how about the answers to the last few questions I asked you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Carr Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Thanks for the screenshot @ptoleary. I'm guessing something on your machine is blocking the download for some reason. If you scroll over to the right in the errors list, what to do the end of the errors say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I didn't even think about that! This is why I asked Jason to come and read this thread. Could be Anti Virus, Firewall or a permissions problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Yeah, we should be able to confirm one way or another if we see the end of the error messages if you scroll right in the dialog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
