Plus any core I have a config set for is listed as missing the core I'm about to test and see if they even work. Gotcha. We should be able to leave the parameters column in the grid in order to add extra parameters easily enough. That's why we're testing.

DOS76 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 yeah I figured you can fix it just wanted to report my findings as I know this would be concerning to some folks 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOHN30011887 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Love the new sidebar, looks very clean Hope we can adjust box art size, im not a fan of the current different lengths of black boxes and it be nice to have option to just have the name of the game under box art, like the old version has Old launchbox with my icons current launchbox next 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fablog Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 When I tried to bulk donwload medias, Launchbox failed to find what I want. But it works when I do it one by one. I tried it several times looking for mame flyers. Is it a known bug? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyeQue Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) I don't seem to have the black boxes Edited May 2, 2018 by EyeQue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asparky Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Just a quick one @Jason Carr,should we hold off, on Windows 10 Update 1803, as It appears to be braking Stuff, or doesnt it effect Launchbox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EyeQue Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I'm having black screens and freezes with the April update. Was thinking about reverting back until things have been fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fablog Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) @DOS76 do you have the same bulk download problem? Edited May 2, 2018 by Fablog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was thinking about reverting back until things have been fixed. You're the first person I've actually been able to talk to about any issues with the update. My guess is it's more of an issue with a driver conflict or something like that than an issue with LaunchBox, but it would still be good to figure out exactly what's going on. Can you explain the black screens? Where are you seeing them? And where are you seeing the freezes? 49 minutes ago, Asparky said: Just a quick one @Jason Carr,should we hold off, on Windows 10 Update 1803, as It appears to be braking Stuff, or doesnt it effect Launchbox? Generally, we're not seeing any issues at all for the vast majority of people. That said, we have had a couple of reports of problems, though I expect that they're more likely Microsoft bugs on certain hardware configurations than anything else. My recommendation at this point is to go ahead and upgrade, as the chance that you're going to run into any issues is very slim, and you can always revert if necessary.

This is a known issue with the EmuMovies API, assuming that it's EmuMovies media that is affected. Let me know what types of media and what sources you're referring to.

How on earth does bulk download have anything to do with audits? MAME flyers do come from EmuMovies, so that would apply in that scenario.

MAME flyers do come from EmuMovies, so that would apply in that scenario. When you audit and select a bunch of games that are missing some type of media, you can choose to try downloading the missing media. when i do that it doesn't get everything, because i end up going into each game one by one after that to check the ones still missing that media and am able to get the media one by one.

I see. I've revisited the EmuMovies stuff in the past, only to be restricted by the EmuMovies API, which I don't have the code for. I am bringing it back up to Circo, but I'm afraid that fixing that particular issue would involve some significant work on their API code (which again I don't have and don't really want to own). I am putting a ToDo on my plate to test and document everything so that I can hand over to Circo for a hopeful fix. That said, it will probably be a while before I get all that done, considering everything else going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pr0FiT Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Emulator management seems to be broken in this latest beta (just pushed out today?) Trying to add a new emulator results in below error when selecting the exe and existing seemingly trying to do anything. Also not sure if it happened with this beta or not but it's def very recent -- when running the scan import certain multi disc games will always be found even though they exists as additional applications, but again, only certain ones and always the same ones, for example sega cd game "Ground Zero Texas (USA) (Disc 2).cue" is always found as needing to be imported even though its already an addapp on the main game.
