    Thank you Bytes N Bits for the awesome video! Do keep in mind though that there is a Themes Manager that will download most of the themes automatically for you that is built in to the interface. :)

      Thanks for the info. My old phone seemed to be having some network issues and was unable to use the theme manager, or log in to either my Emumovies account or LaunchBox database account. So the manual route seemed like a good excuse for a tutorial.

    Great timing as LaunchBox just gave out some free licenses for their 10 year anniversary.

      Aaaah! I missed that one. Thanks for watching.

    It's so organizing and amazing. The only catch is you need to pay 15 dollars if you wanna do Rom packs.

      Yes. There is a very good free alternative - Dig emulator - th-cam.com/video/W4pNDDibXUU/w-d-xo.html

    What is that frontend theme called where u select the games and it has good cover art ? I can’t find it

    • @BytesNBits

      Most of the themes use cover art but you have to download it as part of the media scraping process.

    Hi Bytes N Bits, been working on an arduino project for the last 10 months and the SPI series on your channel has been an invaluable resource. It is a boxing pad which measures impact force and displays the results on a capacitive touch screen. Do u have an email I could send a couple of photos across of the project. Massive thanks again for your vids. Dan

      Hi Dan. Thanks for your comments. If you email info@bytesnbits.co.uk that will get through to me.

    Hi. I can't get past the update cores section in retro arch. I've used a BT mouse, wireless mouse, USB game pad and the supplied remote control for the device, but no button presses or clicks will open any of the menu options. I am trying to install on a brand new Android TV box running Android 12 with 4gb ram and plenty of space. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?. Thanks.

    • @BytesNBits

      Is it just inside the RetroArch menu you have the issue? Have you tried a keyboard? If that works go into the retroArch input settings and see if you can map a controller from there.

    What's your take on connecting devices that are not getting security updates to the internet?
    Do you have a separate account to your main google one that you log in to Android with to stop an attacker getting your main account if they compromise an old device?

    • @BytesNBits
      @BytesNBits  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I'm not too worried about the older OS on these devices. Yes, there may be some security issues but I'm not using these as normal devices. I setup inside my home network and generally turn off WiFi to save battery once it's up and running. Then just use the gaming apps as a local machine.

      @BytesNBits  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I can't really say why that would be. Your phone should be OK. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling?

    Does LaunchBox support mame4droid 2024?

    • @BytesNBits
      @BytesNBits  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think so yes. You'd need to add it as a custom emulator in Launchbox.

    What's a good website to get games

      @BytesNBits  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Please have a look at the project pages for some of my PC emulation videos. TH-cam get upset if you mention download sites on the platform.
