moudrost Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I'm hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction or have an answer to an issue with my new Pixelcade LED marquee. For the most part, everything works perfectly. The marquee changes as I scroll through BigBox. Most of the time however, whenever I choose to play a game, a message appears as the game is loading "Now Playing Q Bert". The thing is, I am never playing Qbert. Is this message coming from BigBox? Pixelcade? LEDBlinky? After the message appears, the marquee displays normally. Maybe there is a way to disable this message if it can't be corrected?

Headrush69 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Does this happen with all platforms or just Mame? What version of Mame? I know 0.227 just added new artwork upgrades including marquee support. It could be coming directly from Mame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moudrost Posted January 22, 2021 Author Share Posted January 22, 2021 I may have this solved. I reached out to Pixelcade and was informed this value is getting set by LEDBlinky. They said they have heard of this before and thought it might be related to the MAME XML. Within the above app I went to the MAME tab and browsed for the XML and saved the configuration file and rebooted. Tested 5 games and all 5 displayed the correct message. To answer your questions, I'm still using 226 and am only using MAME on my arcade cabinet at this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Sorry if this is slightly off topic but I was considering of getting the pixelcade marquee and just wanted to know your opinion of it and how well it works with launchbox Thanks Edited January 22, 2021 by Napalm2016 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moudrost Posted January 22, 2021 Author Share Posted January 22, 2021 I was a bit skeptical, however the thing just works. I purchased the additional art pack Pixelcade provides and highly recommend it. Other than checking a couple of boxes and browsing for some files, there isn't much else to do.
