TheNewClassics Posted May 26, 2021 Posted May 26, 2021 With the download metadata and media tool, I'm getting a lot of 404 errors. It doesn't specifically say what I need to log in to. Could you guys clarify?

TheNewClassics Posted May 27, 2021 Posted May 27, 2021 That makes sense, thanks for the response. Though I always have Steam running in the background, and it's still happening currently as I'm logged in. Maybe if it got interrupted at some point it starts throwing that error.
C-Beats Posted May 27, 2021 Posted May 27, 2021 @TheNewClassics do you happen to have a debug log for when you were getting these errors? Would have more information about what URLs are throwing the error so I can look into some of the stuff @sevenalive was referring to and try to get that improved.
Mr.Laor Posted May 27, 2021 Posted May 27, 2021 Hi, Lately, I've been getting constant (every 10 minutes of active usage) crashes (Launchbox shuts down back to desktop and I have to relaunch) while trying to edit metadata. Is it just me? How can I troubleshoot?

Is it just me? How can I troubleshoot? Are you getting an error or does it just close/crash? Turn on debugging logging, you should get debug log of what is going on and we can go from there. You're the first person to report anything like that with this beta release though (at least to my knowledge).
Mr.Laor Posted May 27, 2021 Posted May 27, 2021 No error. Just stops being responsive for a quick moment then closes. I have debugging loggin on. Where do I find the log? Post them here?

TheNewClassics Posted May 27, 2021 Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) @C-Beats I dont' have the URLs because unfortunately all the messages says are 404 Error: Please sign in. I'll run it again with debug logs to see if I can get it to replicate. Edited May 27, 2021 by TheNewClassics

Thanks for the report. 1
CDBlue Posted May 27, 2021 Posted May 27, 2021 Not sure if this was reported or not. But, on the latest beta when you do a rom import and select folder, as you go through the wizard, you get presented with the arcade/mame portion of the wizard even for non-arcade platforms. It shows for about 5 seconds, then automatically closed and proceeds to the last step of the wizard/import process. In my case I was doing an import of Nintendo Entertainment System roms and I got the Arcade portion everytime I went through. 1

C-Beats Posted May 28, 2021 Posted May 28, 2021 Beta 5 is out now with the following: Improvement: Now scrape controller support information for GOG games during import and in the Download Metadata tool Fixed: EmuMovies downloads were failing if in the download queue for too long Fixed: Mouse navigation wasn't working in Big Box Fixed: The download queue wasn't starting until after pressing "ok" when using the Download Metadata and Media tool 4 2
alondero Posted May 28, 2021 Posted May 28, 2021 Launchbox was softlocked just now in Beta 5 as I had let a game import and then media had finished downloading before I had closed the initial 'games were imported successfully' dialog box. I was able to close the media downloaded box but now I cannot close the games were imported successfully dialog.
Retro808 Posted May 28, 2021 Posted May 28, 2021 When selecting the option to "Force Using Mame Metadata" when importing something like Sammy Atomiswave you get stuck in the "Ready to Import" screen and cannot use the Back button. If you click the Back button it will quickly flash a Mame screen and just stay in the Ready to Import screen. You have to cancel out if you need to go back and make a change. I was testing these option due to an issue someone was having in another thread when I noticed this. Also, same as was mentioned by the two prior users, when progressing through the process you get a quick flash of the Mame wizard screen with the check boxes to exclude all the junk and make the playlists. It is real quick that it flashes. 1
Jason6300 Posted May 31, 2021 Posted May 31, 2021 Latest beta running Windows 10, no other programs running. While downloading images for a platform with many files, and attempting to move the Launchbox window to another part of the screen, the entire window freezes and becomes non-responsive, and stops updating. Unable to click and drag the window at all when this happens, must kill process to resume. Task manager indicates two CefSharp.BrowserSubProcess tasks running along with two Launchbox processes.
SqHd Posted May 31, 2021 Posted May 31, 2021 Hi. In the Retro Achievements profile window, the "Global Leaderboard" tab is blank in BigBox. It's working in Launchbox though. See images below (or this thread: Retro Achievements Global Leaderboard missing in BigBox)
