    scutters - i like anything pinball related, beer (with an extreme over fondness of Newcastle Brown), and being from Yorkshire, cricket. And if you didn't get it from my user name, i also love it a bit of Red Dwarf

    For anyone building large playlists via the drag drop functionality in File List Creator here's a profile that can be loaded to get the correct format output. Go to Settings in FileListCreator and select Load or Save or Load Settings and select Load Profile and load the file attached. Also check the Save automatically on closing checkbox while on that screen and you should be sorted for settings each time you open it in future. PlayListSettings.fls

    Also, in settings.exe go to Joystick Input Settings, try setting Exit Emulator to the same button as Quit (or keyboard input settings if you're using keyboard), whatever button/key you're using. It's not mapped the same now so you might be pressing to Quit pinballx rather than exit emulator. Should probably have suggested that earlier...

    Log file seems to show the issue (recording backglass as playfield video), two blocks highlighted match; 17:35:17.1 7/3/2019: FFMPEG.exe -f gdigrab -framerate 30 -offset_x 3840 -offset_y 1083 -video_size 1920x1080 -t 00:00:45 -i desktop -c:v libx264 -crf 0 -preset ultrafast "c:\users\virtual pinball\appdata\local\temp\tmp74e6.mp4" 17:36:02.2 7/3/2019: FFMPEG.exe -i "c:\users\virtual pinball\appdata\local\temp\tmp74e6.mp4" -vf "vflip,hflip" -c:v libx264 -an -crf 20 -preset slower -pix_fmt yuv420p -f mp4 "C:\Pinball\PinballX\MEDIA\Visual Pinball\Table Videos\Gork 1.0.3.mp4" 17:36:25.1 7/3/2019: Capture Playfield video success 17:36:25.1 7/3/2019: FFMPEG.exe -f gdigrab -framerate 30 -offset_x 3840 -offset_y 1083 -video_size 1920x1080 -t 00:00:45 -i desktop -c:v libx264 -crf 0 -preset ultrafast "c:\users\virtual pinball\appdata\local\temp\tmp7eb5.mp4" 17:37:10.3 7/3/2019: FFMPEG.exe -i "c:\users\virtual pinball\appdata\local\temp\tmp7eb5.mp4" -c:v libx264 -an -crf 20 -preset slower -pix_fmt yuv420p -f mp4 "C:\Pinball\PinballX\MEDIA\Visual Pinball\Backglass Videos\Gork 1.0.3.mp4" 17:37:32.2 7/3/2019: Capture Backglass video success 17:37:32.2 7/3/2019: FFMPEG.exe -f gdigrab -framerate 30 -offset_x 5760 -offset_y 1560 -video_size 1024x600 -t 00:00:45 -i desktop -c:v libx264 -crf 0 -preset ultrafast "c:\users\virtual pinball\appdata\local\temp\tmp84cc.mp4" 17:38:17.3 7/3/2019: FFMPEG.exe -i "c:\users\virtual pinball\appdata\local\temp\tmp84cc.mp4" -c:v libx264 -an -crf 20 -preset slower -pix_fmt yuv420p -f mp4 "C:\Pinball\PinballX\MEDIA\Visual Pinball\DMD Videos\Gork 1.0.3.mp4" 17:38:21.1 7/3/2019: Capture DMD video success I'm not sure why game manager isn't getting the correct playfield screen offsets, i use pbx recorder to capture videos so i'm guessing here, but in settings.exe go to the display section and try changing the Full Screen Windowed value. Also update pinballx to latest version as Mike suggests. If that doesn't fix it post another copy of the log file after recording videos again.

    Probably going to need your log and ini files as Mike requested, also probably the database xml file and a screenshot example of the file names created too (as they should not show as missing in game manger). Make sure you have installed the LAV filters from pinballx homepage, https://www.pinballx.com/, try & record again for a table with a backglass and then report back with the above..
  6. scutters
    All the more impressive!! Agree, best to keep it simple - especially where something like deletes are involved that have the potential to mess stuff up.
  7. scutters
    Well i guess it would be safe to include on table name and delete those, on set ups like yours it just wouldn't match anything - so no deletes. It would be harder to document though, something like "..may or may not delete DMD videos/images.." might cause confusion. I'll leave it to developers discretion and let you decide!!
  8. scutters
    Are you running PinballX as administrator? Right click pinballx.exe, Properties -> Compatibility -> Run as administrator check box If that's already set try installing pinballx 32bit (same installer just don't select 64bit during install)
  9. scutters
    Thank Mike, will give it a whirl later on if i get chance. By the way, checked my DMD Images / Videos... their filenames match the table name (i.e. just the same as table images / videos), might be because i create mine with pbx recorder rather than game manager. So you might be able to include them in the cleanup for some users. Edit - it ran as expected now, disabled tables skipped in the cleanup

    Just to confirm, returning False from the Event_Screensaver in the plugin code to prevent exit from pinballx attract mode was resolved in PinballX V3.47 Thanks Tom!

    Ahh, ok.. no idea why i don't have all the normal directories, i've never heard of a "Table Videos Desktop" folder before and don't remember having deleted it, but at least i've learned something new today. I'm ok with removing media for disabled tables, it's easy to recreate if i re-enable them later. I tend to disable rather than delete tables in pinballx and then re-enable for later (or what i consider to be better) versions of a table, and the media needs updating then anyway as i like my table videos to match the loaded table. Might be worth having another flag in the ini to make it optional for others though.
  12. scutters
    Looks like it'd cleanup disabled tables by default, which is fine. Couple of weird errors like; 7/1/2019 9:12:18 AM ERROR Error creating [g_objFSO.GetFolder(c:\PinballX\Media\Visual Pinball X Pinsound\Table Videos Desktop)] object, 76 = Path not found 7/1/2019 9:12:18 AM INFO Skipping Table Videos Desktop Not sure what's going on there, probably something on my set up? Attached log & database file etc for info. PinballX.ini GenerateUpdateTables.log Visual Pinball X.xml
  13. scutters
    @Mike_da_Spike sounds great, i'll try to run it later on today. Couple of things Just so i'm clear - how does it handle disabled tables/systems, does it just remove media for deleted games or disabled as well?, and i guess it doesn't do DMD images / videos at this time? I could probably work it out from the debug file - but hey, i'm lazy!! Thanks
  14. scutters
    Who would do such a thing?! Sounds like you need that holiday!
  15. scutters
    Holiday, September? If you've already got mp3's i bet you could set this up in less than 15mins!
  16. scutters
    @Mike_da_Spike Cheers Mike, i'm pretty happy with it... i have the cab in the 'man-cave office' so i can boot it up and have music playing in the background and then quickly jump in for a quick game when i get a chance. Don't know why, but the best of the carpenters just never seems to come up for me on random play!

    Plugin Version 2 now released. Notes updated and zip attached in first post. Quick vid of the plugin and backglass skin in use below. It's just a screen recording of my backglass so no commentary (as i must be one of the few people still not using a smart phone) but includes the navigation sounds/speech, from just before Attract Mode starting, showing a few media navigation button presses, skipping tracks, changing playback mode etc and showing video playback in and out of full screen, ending exiting attract mode, should give an idea of how it can look working with a visible media player selected in config. Note, media navigation keys/buttons will work without a visible player as well (except the fullscreen toggle option - because you need it visible for that, obviously!)
  18. scutters
    Can you post a new log file when that behaviour happens?
  19. scutters
    Please post your pinballx.ini and log.txt files. Do you have Auto Configure set for VP in settings.exe?
  20. scutters
    Can you confirm PinballX is set to run as administrator? If that is set already then try turning off Auto Configure for Visual Pinball in Settings.exe
  21. scutters
    Try changing out of full screen windowed in pinballx, this line in the ini file FullScreenWindowed=True. Set to False If that doesn't help post a screenshot of one of the emulators screen resolution setups, also, is the 1920*1080 native resolution?
  22. scutters
    Not an answer to your main problem, but.. When you've got your settings back how you want them, backup/copy your pinballx.ini file somewhere. If the settings get corrupted again it'll be quicker to copy that file back over than going through setting up everything again. As well as backing up the file can you also post your new working version back on here so we can have a quick check? thanks

    New and improved WMP skin, attached to first post. This version has a video window so will display that if media has video content. To install you'll need to unzip the 'Backglass Skin.zip' file and then install the Digir___0.ttf font file (used by the skin) - double click that and then click install. Next step is to install the Windows Media Player (WMP) skin by double clicking the PBX Backglass.wmz file, that should bring up a View Now option which will open WMP and allow you to position the track info on screen by dragging it to position. Close WMP and then select to use a visible player in the plugin via plugin manager.

    All my media matches on table name rather than description, but i suppose the xml holds both name & description so could work either way..
  25. scutters
    Yes!!! Deleted tables would be a start (so anything not in the system.xml file, or any media that no longer has a system.xml), with an option to delete media for disabled tables as well would be pretty cool.
