Big Box Attract Mode

[Bamafan35611]

I just got my Big Box up and going. But I am having some issues. I love how it plays videos of the games it selects but it is in full screen and it has the box art and description on top of the video. I installed the Matallic theme to hope that would fix it but it didnt. I want it where it shows the videos in a box or the box art and desciption somewhere else where it is not covering up the video. I am attaching a image of what mine looks like please can anyone help me with this.

 

 

I would like it to look like this but i cant get it so far.

 

this is what mine looks like can anyone give me some advice

Go to options/videos and turn off background videos. It will also depend on the theme where the video is placed and whether its a background video or not, all themes have multiple views and some will be designed for background videos, some in a video window somewhere and some with no videos at all.

Themes are a personal preference thing, personally i like the unified and its variants or the Fundamental themes. The metallic theme is one of the very first themes created and hasn't been updated in a long long time, so it's a very bare bones theme lacking some of the features implemented into newer themes, but as i say personal preference and all that. As for starting view again personal preference there, personally i have it open to platforms myself, but i know a lot of people also have it open to platform categories.

i hate to ask this and i know you said its a preference. Since Matallic hasnt been updated in a long time what would you think i should try?

Those are the two themes i personally use the most.

Should work correctly out of the box, most themes do.
