jagarbet Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Good evening, im premium lifetime user of LaunchBox Windows, now im trying LB android because next week im going to travel and for long plane times could be a good thing to play some retro gameboy games, To the question, I like to have all my collection on the PC, however to play portable console games, (GB, GG etc..) I have been thinking of acquiring some of these chinese portable mini console, next week I will be traveling and as a test I will use launchbox for airplane rides on my Samsung S21 phone, the performance is great, however, I see that even accessing the xml of the platform (GB for example) "root\launchbox\platform\nintendo game boy.xml" is not recorded neither the time I played a title nor the number of times, I see that the variable is in this XML file <PlayCount> and <PlayTime>, this item is a data that I like to consult on my pc version of LB, I understand that today LaunchBox Android and Windows do not communicate with each other, however its no a problem for me until this function is implemented to move the data manually to maintain an updated database. The thing is it seems launchbox android does not record any of this data, I have been monitoring the files before and after loading a title. Is there any way to get this data today? It is planned to be implemented in the future? For me to buy a hanheld console for emulation its important that this function works to have all my database updated. Greetings and thank you very much.

Jason Carr Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 @jagarbet Sorry for the late reply here. Unfortunately play count and play time are not currently tracked in the Android version of LaunchBox, no. We might add play count tracking here soon, but play time is unfortunately rather complicated so that probably won't happen soon. Unfortunately I don't think there's any way for you to track either of them until we add them as a feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagarbet Posted May 26, 2022 Author Share Posted May 26, 2022 Thank you so much for your answer @Jason Carr, finally i buyed a PSVITA and im playing portable titles with it. If someone is interested I have installed a pluguin that count time played on PSVITA and PSP games, if someone is interested its called TrackPlug its present on "Autoplugin II" selection. For retroarch games i have time played on retroarch itself. I can transfer manually time played to Launchbox going to xml files of every platform. One suggestion, it could be interesting to change manually played time inside game details UI of LaunchBox, nowaday as i can see only its possible going directly to xml files of every platform. Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
