I am not sure if this is a new issue in a beta or not because I have not downloaded videos in a while. But one thing I noticed today while downloading videos through Emumovies with bulk download movies and metadata tool is if a have a video theme for a particular game in the video\themes folder and not the actual video snap in the videos folder and choose "Yes but do not replace any fields or media" it will not download the video snap even though I do not have it. When I remove the video theme for a particular game from the video\themes folder it will download the regular video snap correctly. This only also happens when trying to download in bulk with more than one game as if you download one game video at a time it works correctly. So it looks like if the wizard sees a video theme in the themes folder it counts that as the video and skips it even though I do not have the regular video snap.

Hey,

I'm not sure this is an issue of the Beta, but it might be, so I'm just posting the link to this issue here:
 

 

Try reverting to the stable version and test. If it works in the stable reload the beta and confirm it does not work again.

Beta 3 (also Beta 2)

Upon a drag and drop ROM add triggering the import wizard, the second import screen for media selection via EmuMovies doesn't remember the last settings used.  The prior screen for LB DB media does.  Doesn't matter if you use the Check None or select individually.

Okay, so I switched the Game List View to having plain text instead of having Clear Logos, and seems no longer a problem as it all seems to be running even faster in BigBox.  Just sucks I can't always nicely scroll with Clear Logos without that sort of issue until it's resolved on showing up blank for over a minute at times. LaunchBox itself has crashed on me while doing a Metadata update on a bunch of games, and never continued to the process once I opened LaunchBox back up

Hi Everyone,

Beta 4 is now out with the following changes:

  • Improvement: Big Box FlowControl views and the items in them should load more quickly
  • Improvement: Improved LaunchBox scrolling performance
  • Fixed: ROM Import Wizard wasn't setting Scrape As to a platform's current Scrape As value
  • Fixed: MAME Fullset importer was adding controller and alternate name information to games that already had the information
  • Fixed: EmuMovies was incorrectly using video priorities to determine if you have a video already or not in the Download Media and Metadata tool
  • Fixed: EmuMovies' media type selections weren't always remembered during imports
  • Fixed: Manually adding or dragging images to the AddEditGame Images tab wasn't saving images that came from the correct image folder already

 

Thanks for your help in beta testing. It's always much appreciated.

Beta 4 seems to of broken how the "Arrange By" shows images, i have them in the wrong position and underneath the below games.

Also on horizontal boxes there is now a background that wasn't there previously.

Thanks all for the reports regarding the Old Default based themes. Believe I have a solution and will get a beta out to correct soon.

@sundogak Many of the items listed as fixed came from your reports, could you confirm the issues you reported were fixed in this beta release?

@RULLUR Anyway I can get a status report on your FlowControl issue in this beta? Still have some changes we want to make but I'd like to think this beta should help you some (assuming the original issue wasn't caused by corrupt images like you were beginning to think)

Seems to be fixed now, which I thank you all big time on making it happen too. Not sure all gets a bit of lag at times with the box covers, screenshots, and backgrounds though. Like the Clear Logos and all scroll perfectly with no lag or weird loading now, but there are times where everything else tries to catch up with it.

I also experienced a time where I Launched a PPSSPP game, and it froze up to where even Alt+Tab didn't seem to work, and using the Windows key eventually did to where I finally got focused on the PPSSPP window to close it and Launch it again to where the next time it came up like it should. I also experienced in the previous 2 Betas where I Launch a game from MAME and it would take forever to run more than usual that at times I thought it would be stuck or crash. Not sure if that has been fixed yet in the latest Beta or not since mostly I was checking the Clear Logos and all to see if they load up and scroll correctly

Seems to be another issue with the latest Beta is that if you have BigBox running and your screensaver kicks in, the screensaver runs incredibly slow, and it takes a while to get back to BigBox when you wake the screen back up from it
