But you are the developer and are releasing it. 1 minute ago, GreenGriffon said: It's not unusual for a developer to label their own beta/non-RC builds as "unofficial". Sometimes that word is even used interchangeably with "experimental". Regardless, Jason can call his own work whatever he likes Lol. I put about as much thought into that sentence as I typically put into the outfit that I choose to wear in the morning. Didn't figure it mattered very much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've stared at that sentence for I don't know how many updates and for some reason today I said, huh, that doesn't seem right. Not sure why today was special.

RULLUR Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 So is anyone else getting a dotted line around the frame of everything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Tried the default theme, Bad Old Monkey and LBPlex Condensed and not getting the dotted lines like you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RULLUR Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 When I switched to the next thing on my list from SNK Classic to Taito Classics I noticed it went away. Not sure whoelse experienced the dotted lines, but good to know it's not permanent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do need to hunt this down and remove it. It happens on rare occasions when you use keyboard shortcuts (it's Windows' attempt to show keyboard focus). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RULLUR Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Could this almost be why when I play MAME with my Fiancee it bounces back out to LaunchBox at random? I thought once I turned off using the controller in LaunchBox would fix the issue..but still seems to be a problem at rare occasion. It doesn't close out the game when it happens though.

DOS76 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I had that issue with MAME for a while but only when playing on my secondary monitor it would all of a sudden lose focus and the controller would be controlling LB again it has since gone away but it was pretty annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything you did to help the issue? I can't RetroArch anything through HDMI either for some odd reason so I try do everything the non-RetroArch route Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro666 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 v10 beta running nice and smooth. Can i ask if theirs any roadmap to change video/image paths within the import wizard? Can't stretch to a 4tb SSD just yet so i offload my media to another drive. Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styphelus Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) When in Details View>Additional apps, Launchbox no longer works with PDF files. I just get a black screen now. Viewing the manual works and opens up the internal pdf viewer. It's only when you add PDF files to the Additional Apps that gives a black screen. Something broke in the last update.

cleverest Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I also use additional apps for PDF strategy guides. Please fix! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, that's definitely not related to the black dotted line issue. Unfortunately I don't think that's an issue with LaunchBox at all. 5 hours ago, Retro666 said: v10 beta running nice and smooth.

Cheers, It should work already if you create a platform and set the paths for that platform before running the wizard. Let me know if not. 2 hours ago, Styphelus said: When in Details View>Additional apps, Launchbox no longer works with PDF files. I just get a black screen now.

This has apparently been broken for a very long time and no one has reported it lol. Looks like it must have gotten messed up when we grouped the additional apps into a popup. It's been fixed for the next beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted November 10, 2018 Author Share Posted November 10, 2018 Beta 11 is out now with translation updates and a fix for that PDF issue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RULLUR Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Looks like the dotted lines are back. Just wasn't sure if you was working on it by next Beta or not @Jason Carr, but wanted to show you it's still a thing just in case you wanted to know or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Carr Posted November 12, 2018 Author Share Posted November 12, 2018 Alright, so I had planned to release today, but was a bit frustrated because Big Box was so bare with the new auto-generated playlists. I made some changes/additions that really help to make it a more cohesive experience: - Improvement: Big Box will now use the parent platform's video if no video exists for the selected playlist or category - Improvement: Big Box will now use the parent platform's background images if no background image exists for the selected playlist or category - Improvement: When switching between platforms, categories, and playlists in Big Box, if the same video is used, it will no longer restart - Improvement: Many new default clear logos for genres, play modes, All Games, and Favorites have been added thanks to the community This primarily just helps to make things work better while the new categories and playlists are selected. Also, we are working on getting more default clear logos over here: Finally, I'm going to be releasing an updated version of the Unified Redux theme very shortly that makes it work much better with the auto-generated playlists as well: 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted November 12, 2018 Author Share Posted November 12, 2018 Any testing you guys can do on this new beta would be appreciated, especially in Big Box with the new playlists. Assuming all goes well, we'll probably release tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted November 13, 2018 Author Share Posted November 13, 2018 Oh, also if you're missing playlist clear logos, you may want to go do a playlist clear logo image cache refresh in Big Box, as there are more default images provided now.
