is this issue that you really have to press escape many time, or you just have to wait for it to switch after the first press? because it's always forced me to wait for a long time going from options back to platforms.

so, i'm hoping the fix that is coming will fix me too!  =D

the same exact thing used to happen to me in 6.8 when using VLC until you fixed that issue in 6.9. did you leave that bug fix out of this beta somehow?

the beta 3 didn't fix my stuck navigation from Options and back to the platform list unfortunately. i still have to wait several seconds before it makes the switch in BB.

Do you mean that sometimes it refuses to accept your keypress and you have to press it again? Or do you mean that you just have to wait a second or two before it goes back? The latter is by design if things are still moving in the interface.

Thanks, @ckp. LaunchBox and Big Box actually use separate VLC integration engines, so the fixes we put in for Big Box wouldn't apply for VLC in LaunchBox. I'll look to see if there's an obvious fix.

The crash issue I'm now having in beta3 is with LB (not BB). It's the same exact issue I had before with LB until you fixed it the last release. But now it's broken again. It always worked with vlc inside my BB for all versions.

Ok, on <=6.9 before beta 3, anytime I went into BB and went from the platforms wheel to the settings area (back button on my xbox360 or using keyboard) and then selecting Options, if I go back to the platform wheel (2 back button taps away), without even making a single setting change, the back press leading to the platform wheel would hang there for several seconds (not 1 or 2) before the platforms wheel would show up again. I could press Back a bunch of times, but it would not go back until waiting it out (kind of like the LB hangup exiting from Manage Platforms, although that is much better in the beta 2+ now in LB).

The only difference I see for this in my BB in beta 3 is that now it seems that after I wait for the "hangup" (about 7-8 seconds) going back to the platforms wheel, it will now require me to press Back yet one more time and then it goes right back. In 6.9 I just waited it out and 2 back presses got me back. Now in beta 3 i go 2 back presses, wait for the hangup period, and then press a 3rd back.

So now it's actually slightly worse for me, haha. I hope I explained this clear enough. Let me know if it's still not clear.

just got this LB error popup window with beta3:

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
   at (Object , ElapsedEventArgs )
   at LaunchBox.Program.TimerElapsed(Object sender, ElapsedEventArgs e)

 

after a demul game started. using win media player for videos.

Thanks, @ckp, I get it now. I didn't know you were referring to the Options thing. The various views in Big Box are being reconstructed when leaving options because of possible changes. There's certainly plenty I can do to clean this up yet, but that in particular has not been addressed; I expect that's what's going on. The saving should be going on in the background now but if you're still seeing delays that's probably not the issue. To be honest it's not the highest of priorities but I will review it again here at some point.

I actually just fixed that error above as well in beta 4. :)

hoping you mean the error when using vlc as video player. i can't reproduce the other error (System.NullReferenceException) at will so don't know how often that one happens
