Lancer-am Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I have a Mame setup that was working great on 9.0, all of my auto generated playlists were displayed correctly. After updating to 9.5 The only thing tht shows up is Favorites despite all of the playlists existing in LaunchBox. If I tell the playlist to be included in the system list, then they show up in systems but not under playlists. It is almost like it wiped the file for Bigbox playlists and forgot to recreate it. I have tried auto creating the playlists again to no avail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancer-am Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 Nevermind, I found the hide auto generated playlist toggle. It seems that should be off as a default setting. It wasn't very well called out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancer-am Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 Yes it was, a small one liner in 9.4. Again, this changed the default behavior of Big Box. Should have been better called out. A pop-up asking if you want this enabled during installation or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a guessing game I would think in trying to determine every single thing that would need a unique pop-up each time a change is made. So the change log at least lets users know what changes were made and it does pop-up in the window for users to read each time a new install is done.

Lancer-am Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 Special popups that warn against all default behavior changes between versions possibly? Again may not need toggles, but again I was upgrading to 9.5 which this feature had been added in 9.4 so I would have had to go back and read previous changelogs, but between small iterative versions you don't really expect default behavior to change. Between major version changes maybe but not iterative ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I am not saying you are wrong at all. However, I would recommend always reading his change logs. Even if you skip a couple updates I would go back and read. If you look at the logs you can see there are plenty of one version jumps where the next one had a lot of changes. It is not a big team developing. It is Jason. So only so much can be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
