Background Images - LaunchBox Vs Big Box

[jrusso4587]

Hi all,

I would like to have a set up where when I am in LaunchBox, my background is the default grey one which is simple, but I like it a lot. However, when I am in BigBox (using the Minimal theme), I would like to use a background for systems like the 3DS or PSP Minis which have almost no videos for them. I need the background to show something other than a blank screen. I thought you could configure that in the options of LB and/or BB, but no matter what I do, I cant get the image to only show in BB. It's either both or nothing.

Any suggestions? 

Thanks in advance.

Background image settings in LB and BB should have zero impact on each other.

Thanks. I have one follow up question though: In LB, if I select the default LB background and uncheck all of the background priorities, why would LB pull an image from my fan art folder within the platforms images folder? I don't want to remove the image because BB uses it. I included screenshots as references.

...and thank you again for your help.

BB and LB settings are separate form each other so the settings in one don't affect the other.

Yes they do affect each other, at least with the default theme that LaunchBox comes with, i have the exact same Situation as OP and his description is 100% on point.  

Big Box itself doesn't seem to have options to change the background as far as i can tell, only Videos can be enabled/disabled.  

Maybe you are using a custom theme that acts differently?
