neil9000 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 12 hours ago, eatkinola said: Yes, I'm sure that's why (missing file type in the .dll). My WMP cannot play webm files. Did you have to install a codec to play them? Regardless, I can just allow the library to try and load these files. It should work as long as the video player supports the format. Yeah VLC will play webm files by default, but WMP will need the codecs installed (I used the k-lite basic pack) I do use VLC in Bigbox though as default, so yeah they play just fine in all other themes.

GreenGriffon Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Is there an overlay for the Panasonic 3DO available in this theme? I could have sworn Viking did a video for it, but I can't find an image in the file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 You can go to Launchbox/themes/nostalgia/views/images/AVLF to see what images are currently included with the theme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Neil. @GreenGriffon: I'm always adding new backgrounds from viking's work. If it's not there, I can add 3DO to the next update.

I think it's not being picked up because LB lists the platform as "NEC TurboGrafx-16". Now it works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eatkinola Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share Posted October 15, 2017 On 10/13/2017 at 7:54 PM, eatkinola said: Thanks for the report. It's because CZ/CH and Nostalgia use different versions of the Ao.Bigbox.Themer assembly. It's not a problem with the new hotkey to switch themes; it will also happen if you switch themes the old way. I'll have to think about possible solutions for this; perhaps different assembly versions can be specified in the XAML or something? I'll shoot this over to @Jason Carrin case he has some thoughts on such assembly conflicts between themes. @Porl Hendy: Found a solution for this -- just renamed the assembly to Ao.Bigbox.Themer.v3_0 (included versioning in the name) on compiling, then updated the refs in XAML files. Poof, these conflicts are gone at least in my testing. I'll include this fix in the next release. Thanks again for bringing this issue to the forefront, as it needed to be promptly addressed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil9000 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Hi @eatkinola, sorry I have just found a little bug in the theme. If you go to Options/Sound and turn the master volume down to 0% the video audio still plays. All other sounds are muted except for the videos so I assume it has something to do with your video .dll. Here is a little video I just made demonstrating it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's a lot less frequent, before it would happen almost every time I used BB, but it only occurred once today, and not at all yesterday.

All looking good on my end, had to make a few index edit's (but that's why they are there right), sound bug is also fixed. From a purely selfish point of view there are only two things I need to have this theme 100% to my liking, and they are European SNES and Sega Megadrive backgrounds. Apart from that I think its ready for a official version 1.0 release. Thanks again for this really great theme, I know it's been a lot of hard work and a lot of little bug fixing, but I think it really show's through in how good the final product has turned out. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Dang. Will not get to test until I return home from business on Thurs. but if @neil9000 says it is running good then I am sure it is. I agree with Neil on how good the theme is. Thanks again @eatkinola for all the work you have put into it. Talking wishes...I would love to see a couple backgrounds for platform categories. I was thinking for something like handhelds do the standard pc screen but put random handhelds lying around it. Similar for consoles use the pc screen and maybe put like random controllers from different consoles lying around it. Just a thought. Does anyone have a .psd for the stock image maybe I could mess around with? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alnyden Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Just trying out the theme for the first time and loving it. Great work! What I was hoping to do was make a backup (alt version) of the theme and change the background image depending on the playlist. (Preparing for theme-specific playlists in Bigbox update). I created a copy of the whole folder, then in Styles-Nostolgia found the background image path and changed it to the new folder name, but after doing this, it still displayed the old image. Any tips on how I could accomplish this? Thanks again! R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
