I have seen some kodi skins do this for disc artwork. I've requested this feature several times... I hope it happens. As much time as people are spending on themes, it would be nice to have a decent looking image for games with missing art. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, hiding certain tagged games unless a password is entered. Vote PC! I'm starting a campaign. Consider this the Ratings Matter Party. I'd like to throw my name in the hat voting for this kind of feature. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaysArcade Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 He just said it is already on the list so we'll see if it makes the official poll. He has a lot of ideas to go through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he has about 90 suggestions at the moment which he needs to whittle down. So fingers crossed for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaysArcade Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I want launching an app like KODI or Jukebox from top level menu more than anything else. Hey, you're a mod, do you know if my username can be changed or am I locked in? I'd like to change to JaysArcade if possible. If not, no big deal. I just don't see a way to do it myself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I'm a 100% with you there I have a windows apps platform that has KODI and the xbox app to stream from my xbone, that's it. If I could have them top level I would love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Yeah you can change your name, I did. This isn't my OG name I changed it after a couple of months, wasn't a mod back then either. Its in your account settings somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding menu items that go on the main menu like Kodi, with 'Global' meaning that these items could always be listed on any menu/view.

Feez Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 I personally would love to see some sort of "game caching" feature, akin to steammover. My scenario: I keep most of my games/roms/isos .7z compressed on my file server to save space. I know LB can decompress these files to play the game/iso, but that takes time. If i'm repeatedly playing a game, that would mean a wait each time. What if we could create a launchbox "game cache" folder on my emulation machine's SSD, temporarily decompress the game to that folder, and launch it from there, then _leave the uncompressed copy_ for future launches, either until i clear the cache, or "unmark" the game from caching? Or, something like "favorite" games get cached, others don't, or files below a certain size don't get cached because decompression would be so quick, that kind of thing. This would give us the "best of both worlds" for space-saving as well as launch speed for our frequently played games. Thoughts? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
