We have uploaded the new version 1.23-beta-3.

If you have version 1.23-beta-2 downloaded in the LaunchBox/Updates folder, you need to delete the current version, install 1.23-beta-2, and update to 1.23-beta-3 through the app's alert.
If you don't have version 1.23-beta-2 downloaded in the LaunchBox/Updates folder, download the official 1.22 version from the LaunchBox website, open the app, enable the "Update to Beta Releases" option on the Options page, fully close the app, and then open it.

Let us know if it resolved your issue

Ok so I tried the new manual network location but it won't let you type in the full ip address. It only let's you use a single period. So if my ip address was 192.168.1.75 it only let's you type 192.168175

Hello, thanks for the report. We will try to fix it by the next beta (which is soon )

β3バージョンにアップデートしましたがこの現象は変わりませんでした。

今回のアップデートでは修正が間に合わなかったでしょうか？(更新情報を見落としていたらごめんなさい)

もし今回修正されているとしたら、LaunchBoxを再インストールしてみようと思います。

Hello, I thought I fixed this issue, but no. It's really difficult to do it without being able to reproduce it. Hope the next beta will finally solve it.

Beta 4 is now available for testing. This build adds new Second Screen Views options for choosing and ordering the dual-screen Game Details pages, improves NAS re-imports so regional releases and editions that share a title are relinked correctly, and fixes several controller, dual-screen, and stability issues reported during Beta 3. It also adds support for more emulators and platforms. We'd appreciate your feedback as we continue polishing version 1.23. Full details are below:

• Added support for new Android emulators: Xenra (Gold), Xenra (Green), ax360e, ax360e (Free), X360 Mobile (Old), xendroid, Dolphin (Debug), Dolphin Handheld, Dolphin Ishiiruka, Dolphin MMJR3, DolphinCS, Borked 3DS, Lemonade Alpha, Citra (Antutu), Citra (Antutu Storage Access), Mupen64Plus AE (Alpha), Mupen64Plus AE (Legacy), Suyu (RelWithDebInfo), PPSSPP Legacy, ARMSX1, EmuCoreR, ARMSX3, EmuCoreC, Vita3k+, Virtual Virtual Boy, MiceWine, Winlator CMod, Winlator CMod (Old), Winlator CMod Proot, Swan.emu, Ruffle, SWF Player, SWF Player Pro, and Swiff
• Added the Web Browsers, Microsoft Xbox 360, and Sega Titan Video platforms
• Added RetroArch core mappings for Sega Titan Video and Sega Model 3
• Added Second Screen Views options to choose which dual-screen Game Details pages appear, including Statistics, the order you page through them, which page opens while a game is running, and which pages are hidden while playing. Themes can also provide their own pages
• Fixed NAS re-imports and Update Games scans skipping regional releases and editions that share a title. These games are now relinked by file name, and Update Games now shows how many games were relinked and lists any that could not be matched
• Fixed holding A to open the game menu with "Skip Menu and Play Game on Tap" enabled, which could launch the game when choosing an option such as Edit Metadata
• Fixed pressing B on the PIN screen on dual-screen devices closing one screen and leaving LaunchBox stuck on the splash screen when reopened
• Fixed game achievements opening on the Library screen instead of the Details screen on dual-screen devices
• Fixed a crash when returning from platform view settings on dual-screen devices, and repeated Back presses navigating twice
• Fixed the launch activity for the Google Play version of ARMSX2
• Fixed entering IPv4 addresses when adding NAS connections manually
• Fixed Android system-bar spacing and toolbar positioning that could leave gaps or overlap platform and game lists
• Fixed RetroAchievements platform matching to use metadata aliases and Scrape As settings, including Sega Master System
• Fixed crashes when opening editing pages from game menus while artwork was updating, when closing a popup with the on-screen keyboard open, when saving a new platform, and when the second screen switched views while videos were loading
