13.23 crashes, problem with music?

[HeidiPS]

Just updated to 13.23 and Launchbox crashes when I change games. Some systems work fine, others do not. I think it is because of the music (I added music to many games in Launchbox). So when i choose a game (not starting, just looking at the details) that has music and change to another game (that has also music in Launchbox) then Launchbox crashes immediately. Just before the update everything was working fine. Now, when I change games in a system with no added music, then everything is fine too. There seems to be a problem with the update.

To clarify (for the developers), you're talking about game-specific music/soundtracks?  Do your games have video also (and presumably the videos are muted when the game has a soundtrack file)? 

And then in Tools < Options < General < Video Playback, are you using WMP of FFmpeg?  (try the opposite and see if it makes a difference)

Yes, talking about game-specific music. I moved the "music"-folder to somewhere else and everything was fine. Now I moved it back, changed WMP to ffmpeg and everything was fine too. Then I changed it to WMP and Launchbox crashed. So it`s that. But it was WMP in 13.22, wasn`t it? Never had a problem with that (videos are there in details window but do not play automatically in my Launchbox, just music).

Thanks!

13.22 had WMP and VLC.  Also note (more of an FYI), VLC and FFmpeg use the same base codec. So, in that regards they're similar. (But different in many other aspects).

Yeah. Sorry about that. I actually open and looked.  I knew BB has an option to prioritize soundtracks over video audio. Poor assumption (bad memory) on my part that LB did too. 😊
