legolas119 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Hi, i just downloaded the latest LB versione, the 12.12 and i watched the video, as usual: but i have a coule of questions: 1) Bezels: are they available only for MAME and Retroarch emulator? I have MAME, but i don't have Retroarch ( prefer to keep a different emulator for every system, i don't like Retroarch). If so, do you know if it is planned to release bezels for others emulators too? I would like to have them for my emulators too.. 2) I don't understand very well the new feature related to the import of image packs: now, when i import a games set, LB automatically download from emumovies,hyperspin-fe (I have a lifetime subscription for both) and so on. So LB already download box, covers, and so on.. is the new feature in particular useful for users without any subscription to emumovies/hyperspin? Thanks!

This integration was only for Bezel Project since it supports Mame and RA. A bit back it was determined LB would not be implementing Bezels itself to use with emulators to do not have native bezel support. 15 hours ago, legolas119 said: 2) I don't understand very well the new feature related to the import of image packs: now, when i import a games set, LB automatically download from emumovies,hyperspin-fe (I have a lifetime subscription for both) and so on.

LB does not download media from hyperspin-fe so not sure why you mentioned that. We only download from our GamesDB and EmuMovies. The feature is to make it easier to download packs that our users have been posting to the forums. So in theory it would make it useful for those who do not have a sub to EmuMovies as well as be another option to help our users have a more media rich set-up.

legolas119 Posted June 23, 2022 Author Share Posted June 23, 2022 ok, thanks! So i could import Bezels for MAME only at the current time. But i already have bezels activated on my MAME configuration and when i start a MAME game with launchbox, it directly appears with bezles around the screen...so...i don't know if it is better to download additional bezels from LB...i don't know how the game will appear if i have 2 set of bezels...one from MAME configuration and another one from LB... thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feature was designed to make it easier to apply entire packs of images in one go from sources like our forums. Typically packs like this have a far higher degree of consistency than you get scraping a media database like ours or EmuMovies. If you're happy with the images you get from the Games Database or EmuMovies in LaunchBox then you can continue to use those. This just gives more options to those that don't.
