Yessir that's exactly it. Launchbox calls that a "Steam Banner" or "Banner", because technically the game also has a "Logo" like this:

b47ee43014bf52606d805276035175b7d776de4d

Which you'll find here: https://steamdb.info/app/764790/info/

Logos could be useful for Big Box mode, and if possible would be nice to have. By the way, I just tested a theory and it worked: If you drop an image into an image category folder, i.e. ..\LaunchBox\Images\Windows\Clear Logo\North America\ and name it GAME-01.jpg or .png, LB will auto-recognize it as that image type. So this may be how to get multiple image types for a single game!

Side note: The Messenger is a fun little game, played about an hour of it so far, retro feel and good sense of humor

Added you on Discord, the gathering of the information is complete, got everything I think, later this week I will start the plugin itself, information so far:

Looking good! It's awesome that you were able to parse the data out.

Are genres pulling over? I'm not seeing them in your cmd window, unless I'm just missing it.

I can't tell you how excited I am for this ?

Ready to beta test anytime, DM me!

Yes sir,

Screenshots lists and Genres list! I forgot the line code to output to CMD, but if you check the code on the left side you can see the SSList and the genresList code. It will take more time for the plugin, but we will get there(I hope).

Do you know how you're going to handle overwriting current data? For instance, if running your plugin on a game that already has some data stored (i.e. Genre), will it overwrite, ask, or skip?

probably I will put some box to OK to overwrite or cancel

 

Having some problems on set the information  to the game, posted on the forums but no one replied yet :(

Would it be possible to make a choice that will write to empty fields and not overwrite fields with already existing data? I can imagine people, myself included, have certain data already stored in some fields. Or would that pose a very challenging hurdle?

Yes,

That would be feasible and correct way to do it, maybe I can add a checkbox to Force update of the fields even if the information is filled.

I tested the first Dev version yesterday and it is kinda of working, video is being download but there's something breaking it sometimes, last thing to implement is screenshots.

Hey,

 

Thanks for the logs, so I did a little bit of testing and it's actually working, the problem was that when you copied the URL from youtube it came with something the feature tag from youtube, which broke the plugin.

 

OK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qEVoWzxgpU

NOT OK:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qEVoWzxgpU&feature

 

Please try again and let me see how it goes.

Just started getting this error today, never had problems in the past (outside of when I tried to use a URL with a timestamp, and I believe if I had tried to download a video if one had already existed, but I don't think that's the issue here.)

 

Anyway, here's the error report:

Did a little bit of investigation on this and again it's a problem on Youtube changing stuff on their end, as soon the Framework that I use update it to fix the error I will post a new version. Apart from that there's nothing to do.

I was suspecting that might be the case, given that after I posted about the issue here, I tried using a YouTube video downloader website, and it also had issues. Glad to know it's not just me, at least. Thanks for working on!

Hey @PurpleTentacle could you please download the new version and check? I updated the library but do not have the time until the weekend to test it! Please let me know if there's any problem.
