AstroBob Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Hi @Robbie v welcome to the community! A quiz machine cabinet sounds awesome, seems you have quite a few cool builds going on there 🚀 It sounds like you've come up with a pretty good solution there, but I wonder have you had a look at Big Box's attract mode? You can find it under `Options > Attract Mode`. It's a feature designed to make your library more visually appealing and engaging when idle. It automatically cycles through your game library, displaying media associated with your games like videos and screenshots. Unfortunately, it doesn't support adding a single custom video to loop continuously, but it will go into attract mode after a certain time frame, and then when the user touches the controls it will let them take over. It definitely can look a lot better depending on how much media you have associated with your games and what theme you're using. So it may not be ideal for you, but definitely give it a whirl and see what you think. Let me know how you get on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robertharris Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 It reminds me of those early days of Papa's games navigating those menus and unlocking new features felt like a real accomplishment, even if it meant juggling orders like a pro. Thanks to the community for sharing their knowledge, now I can get my launchbox set up just right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
