Naddel81 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Hi @ all, I am considering a premium license and would like to know if my database is automatically updated with preview videos. Is that possible? If yes, how long and how big (in megabytes) such a video for one game is approximately? Best wishes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 LBGDB doesn't host any videos to be able to get videos you also have to have a membership at emumovies and to not be limited to how much bandwidth you can use you have to be a paid member there or you can get there lower quality stuff there for free but with daily download limits.

Naddel81 Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) thanks for your reply. so quality on emumovies is based on whether I pay or not? can I enjoy videos on launchbox as a basic user as well? would like to try it out.

DOS76 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 You can there are some free sources but none that are integrated with LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naddel81 Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 so I registered at emumovies. can I import those movies now into my non-premium launchbox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I had LB premium before it even supported videos so I don't know if you can use them when you aren't a premium member I don't think you can but I'm not positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 There are no more daily bandwidth limits at EmuMovies anymore. The only thing you can do with a free account is download the pack and insert it manually. However, the names might be slightly off and you're gonna get video for every game in that platform and not just the ones you have. In order to download Game Videos automatically you do need a LaunchBox Premium Account and an Emu Movies Premium Account as well. With just a LaunchBox Premium you do get the system videos. If you do decide to get EmuMovies Premium (You can try a month out for fairly cheap), in order to download the video: click on a platform on the left, click a game, Ctrl + A to highlight everything, go to Tools -> Download Metadata and Media, go through the Wizard, when it asks you a multi-choice question pick option 2 (which should be to not replace any existing fields), then go through the rest of it. On the EmuMovies screen, at the very bottom, and once you have both Premiums, there should be video boxes that are checked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Good to know wasn't aware they had changed their policy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Yea, our EmuMovies video should still have all the latest info about that stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Yeah I didn't see that one since I know how to EmuMovies from way back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naddel81 Posted November 12, 2016 Author Share Posted November 12, 2016 I only want a few systems to get movies. what does a one month subscription cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 http://emumovies.com/store/category/3-donation-options/ If you go monthly though, you wont get any updates after the month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naddel81 Posted November 12, 2016 Author Share Posted November 12, 2016 so 20 dollars is the cheapest way to get preview movies? I guess I'll just live without then ;( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Yearly and Lifetime's are generally the most cost effective, and they run sales from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naddel81 Posted November 12, 2016 Author Share Posted November 12, 2016 guess I'll wait for a sale. thanks for letting me know.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
