  1. PbxRecorder isn't supported actively anymore so any changes to the encoding there (if that's the issue) are unlikely. If you want to stick with pbxrecorder you could try changing the existing output options it already has (mp4/flv etc) to see if that helps, or try the recorder built into Database Manager instead. For PinballX attaching an example video might help Tom to look into it further, as well as confirming you've tested it against all the Media Foundation setting options available in PinballX 7.23 (Yes, No and Sample Grabber) with no success.

  2. So, back in the day, in 2023, I tried to get TeknoParrot working on PinballX. It was successful. Sorta.... The end result was entering one TeknoParrot instance for each game because I couldn't figure out how to get around the XML's instead of roms. Thanks to @Mike_da_Spike, that's a thing of the past. I just didn't realize it because I never saw his entry, post-solution. Tonight, because I reconfigured a ton of crap on both my cab and my son's arcade, I decided to screw around with TeknoParrot again and try out Mike's config...IT WORKS! Here is the new, working config which will launch ANY game within TeknoParrot: And here's the Game Manager settings: Name the description of your game whatever you'd like but name the "Game" after the game's XML file in the UserProfiles folder. So, if your game is Mario Kart DX and the game's XML is "MKDX118", put "MKDX118" in the "Game" slot on the Game Manager. If you're unable to choose it, just manually write it in. It will work. That's it. Just thought I would write to say this has been fully solved. Special thanks to both @Draco1962 and @Mike_da_Spike for the help on this. Also thanks to @Tom Speirs who keeps driving me to keep at these things until they're solved. Thanks, all.

  3. The new MAME title videos are complete. They are located on the FTP here: /-GameEx-/- Emulator Artwork & Videos -/MAME/video_title 95% of them are a decent attract mode capture. The upscaled videos on the FTP are however the best quality. In the next release of GameEx there will be an option to chose between the three types to automatically download. Audio can be a slight issue on the title videos because they are all fixed to 60hz. The title videos are up to date as of MAME 0.287 and include all working or imperfect non clones unless the name of the clone game is different. View the full article

  4. I did it to your specifications exactly and it worked! @Draco1962, @Mike_da_Spike, and @Tom Speirs, you guys continue to be amazing. Thanks for helping me build this cab throughout the years. I know I have a penchant for putting PBX through its paces and making it run some funky stuff but you guys don't give up until it's done. I love it. One of these days, I'm gonna write an essay about all the things you guys have helped me with throughout the years. You guys helped me with some tough stuff like Daphne, getting Mario Kart GP to work through Dolphin, TeknoParrot, and the 150 emulators I put on my son's big arcade project a couple years ago. Every single time I'm stuck and think it can't be done, you guys always reply with, "What are you talking about? It CAN be done! Let's go!" Thank you so much.

  5. A good alternative with the added benefit of using HDMI if you still have an OG Xbox but missed the opportunity to pick up some of the previously available high def options. https://electron-shepherd.com/products/electronxout

  8. See. I told you to stick with it! lol. Teknoparrot is not hard to setup to launch games. The main issue with it is exiting games.

  10. Hey Spike... My BAT file works for launching my nudge files but I can't seem to make a BAT file to make them quit. I thought I had the right syntax but maybe I'm missing something. Here's what I have in the "kill" BAT: @echo off taskkill /F /IM X-Hotkeys.exe taskkill /F /IM AutoHotKey 64-bit.exe exit The applications don't quit and will ignore the BAT file. Nevermind! Got it working! Did this for the kill BAT: @echo off TSKILL X-Hotkeys TSKILL Nudge exit Works like a charm! Thanks!

  11. I haven’t had one in 14 years and I still have occasion to look longingly at someone with a cigarette. Goes away in a flash but it’s always there. great job! 👍🏼

  12. Hyperspin and other frontends do not necessarily have the same code base. Some may be easier to adapt than others. Patience.

  13. I split this from the Feature Request thread. This is a query regarding a known issue and more appropriate to be asked and responded to within the General forum. There may not be a fix possible for PinballX as the issue, as noted in several posts, is Nvidia-inflicted. Tom has attempted to address as much as he can to date. Such is the way with software development - sometimes the only fix is a workaround. That said, no ETA for a fix at present.
