Questions regarding 3D box art and background music

[El_Luiso]

Hi there,

I have a few issues with Big Box that I could use some help with. First off, I selected 3D box art as game image type in Launchbox as well as in Big Box -- however it's still showing flat 2D box art in game view. Is there another setting I have to enable within my theme preferences? I'm using Colorful, btw. 

Another thing: Under my current configuration, the box art appears and then disappears after 5 - 6 seconds or so. Is there a way to make it not disappear again? I'm sure there must be, but I just can't find it.

 

Bonus question: I tried to set some background music by putting a .mp3 in Launchbox > Music > Background. That generally works, however background music always starts with a few seconds delay (and also stops with some noticable delay after shutting down Big Box), which makes it feel less like 'genuine' menu music. Is there any way to load music with higher priority or something?

 

Thanks in advance!

What theme are you using?

Some themes depending on how they are coded are designed to show a specific image type. As well as possibly fade the image away after a certain time.

I'm using the Colorful theme. Already dug into the settings files, too, but unsure what to look for exactly.

In LB the is a section to set image priorities for each image type. You'll find this in LB Options

That did the trick, thank you. Now if only I would get the box art not to fade away...

Can you show an example?

Thats by design, you would need to edit the theme code to change that.
