Not sure if this can be avoided, but with Version 5.50 I get this popup when running the installer : Version 5.46 and before didn't have this popup, but started since version 5.47 (the 2nd version of 5.47, as the first one is not giving the message). Anything changed in the installer ? (not a big issue, but as a typical Dutch guy, I just want to moan about something )

Please attach your pinballX log.txt and pinballx.ini after you simulatedcthe issue. I'm not using fx2 on my cab (but fx3, vp, tpa and some other steam games ), but all is closing by pinballx. Make sure you don't have PinballX running in compatibility mode and not run as admin.

Here's a new Gottlieb by Premier logo

I thought it was just when highscores was enabled in the front end, but noticed it now happens after every attract mode. The DMD is still in use at the moment that pinmame is launched. According to my DMDdevice.log [16] 2022/08/18 06:10:45.429 ERROR | Error: Access to the port 'COM4' is denied. DmdDevice.log My assumption is that after attract mode, XDMD is not closed correctly. Closing the table and relaunch it, shows in my DMDdevice.log that it can access the DMD again [16] 2022/08/18 06:18:39.773 INFO | Checking port COM4 for PinDMDv3... [16] 2022/08/18 06:18:39.940 INFO | Trusting that PinDMDv3 sits on port COM4. [16] 2022/08/18 06:18:39.941 INFO | Colored 4-bit frames for PinDMDv3 enabled.

I didnt do anything. Tom fixed it in code. Glad it is working !

that proves you are still human Tom

password isn't saved in the pinballx.ini, but stored in registry. @Tom Speirs When Reg key HKCU\Software\PinballX does not exists, the reg key will not be created and UID and PW are not stored. If this key is created manually, the settings will be stored. When will this reg key be created ? During install ? @biffiam I attached a small reg file, if you double click this, it will create the reg key for pinballX. (if you know hoe to make it manually, it is fine as well) After creating this, launch settings.exe and you can fill in the UID and PW, clicking on next and back will show your login name and able to use it within PinballX and game list manager pinballx.reg

Not sure if it is resolved. DBM uses different regkeys for uid and pw. I only mentioned it, tocheck if the credentials where ok.

After you fill in the field, did you hit next ? Also try to launch pinballX once before you start game list manager. You can also try Databasemanager, it will check password as well

Scutters and I just released a new version for DBM. Nothing specials for end users, but since the last update, we changed the complete apng support. I was not happy how we showed APNG files during the overwrite dialog and preview on the main screen. It could take a lot of time before it shows, and we could not have animated PNG's shows directly in the wheel image. But .... thanks to @Tom Speirs we could have a fully integrated apng library into Database Manager. We received the source code from MNGer player, which gave Scutters and myself a good start for getting animated PNG's to display. @scuttersdid a good job of fixing frames issue in the code. I did some things myself as well The biggest difference from previous version and this version is : show animated PNG's directly as animated in the program (only when it has the extension .apng as PinballX will not show apng file renamed as png file) much faster showing the overwrite dialog and preview screen A small video created to show the differences : I hope you like it Again, big thanks to Tom and Scutters !

Is it just me, or are the user icons much bigger than before ?

nais ! did you received a new updated on the theme ?

Its now changed to ips default

Its definitely the default theme for me. Not sure what you expect

Not sure what browser you use on your phone, bit my 'samsung beta internet' browser shows it correctly:

Thanks Tom. That is working like a charm

Thats the option I use most (and the thanks button, that only gives a like, just as @Draco1962mentioned)

Version 3.3.5 uploaded Fix some distortion that could happen during conversion of media to new video Mostly black or transparent could show a bit unclear. Also downscaling to real DMD gave distortion. Hope that it is fixed with this release

is VP9 not working at all, or only when you launch your table via PBX ? If it is freezing outside PinballX as well, you first need to figure that part out.

Nice one. Bought my 3080 a couple of months too early. I'm curious of you like VR. I'm still in doubt of it Btw. Did you see also Tilt 5 project ?. More augment reality, but you can use your own cabinet for it (see post ftom Freezy)

I aasume you have dof installed, otherwise you don't have interaction. If DOF is working, you need the dof plugin for pinballx. This can be downloaded from the download section. Opem the dof configtool (website), go to table config and selecttable pinballx. On the right pane (canidate configuration) Paste the next line on 'start button' ON Blink fu500 fd600 Save your config, download the newconfig and apply it to your dof. That should do the trick (you can change the blinking part off course, this is my fading in and out on my led light) Hope it make sense

Can you be more specific what you want / try to accomplish ?

Awesome! Thanks for checking I will update the upload section soon

Thanks, and yes, according to FFMpeng something is wrong with that file "[png @ 00000209fbe77b80] Invalid PNG signature 0x74E5244DD1B764E9." Can you delete the video that was created, use the invalid PNG again and rerun the script. It now should fail on the file and continue (so will not create the file, but will not hang anymore) Just want to know if this works And again, thanks for reporting this and that you send the files CreateVideos.exe
