I've made a video to show the problem i encounter. See Below. I explain. My game list view display artwork background for each game. I've set up a custom background wich is the gamecube image that appears when "Nintendo Gamecube" is selected. The same image is set as "no snap" image. When i enter in the Gamecube Game list, game artwork is displayed in background ( i think it's searching matching file in this order : background->Box->snap). But when a game has no artwork and gameex can't find a suitable one, the background is black as you can see in the video. I want to display the "custom background image" when Gameex doesn't find a suitable artwork. Is it possible or is it a non implemented feature ? Better than words, see the video below, the problem appears when i go above the most played games list, when there is an empty line ->black background, and it's the same if it can't find a suitable artwork : Black_Background_Problem.mkv EDIT : Adultery has answered he can reproduce the problem so it appears it's a bug. Can it be fixed in a future update ? Thanks for your work

I've been a paid user of gameex for a while now and recently decided to attempt making things more to my liking. I'm going to try and hold my frustration to a minimum in this post and hoping someone can give me an answer that is helpful. I will say that i believe gameex is a good tool for a frontend, more specifically i am just using it for mame and visual pinball and daphne. My rant is the configuration is convoluted and anyone can easily get lost in the maze. I've just about run out of patience going in and out of the software, making one config tweak after another only to waste hours getting no where, well, maybe accomplish 1 thing every couple hours. At this rate I'll have lost most of my hair and will never get gameex setup the way i want. Here is my wish list: 1. when i start gameex i want to see just, VIDEO ARCADE (which is a group of mame and daphne), PINBALL (which is just virtual pinball), and the obvious EXIT. 2. under VIDEO ARCADE i want to see my favorites, ALL MAME, JUST DAPHNE (or something like that) 3. i had visual pinball showing snaps and flyers at one point, now i don't see flyers anymore,... they are there, the path is correct. 4. this could be related to item 3 above. Loosing my mind on how to set the view the way you want it and lock the damn thing. as of now it appears to be locked by i want to change some views and then lock it back. 5. going back to 1 and 2.... since i've paid for the software i supposedly have the ability to really custom the menus and menu structure even more, have played around as stated earlier with the config menu app but seems to have no affect. Probably more issues but at the moment figured i see if i get a useful response first. Thanks in advance to anyone out there reading this and who has something to contribute here.

I've noticed something worse... probably a bug. Selecting the various views, at a certain point you arrive at the horizontal scrolling view (the last one indroduced). Obiously GameEx picks up its default background, since no theme has a proper background for that view for now. The issue is that, from that moment, if you continue changing views, GameEx keeps its background and doesen't revert to the one from the selected theme. I tried with three different themes, same results.
