I had a day to spare on the weekend and wanted to try my hand at a LaunchBox plugin. This is the result. I don't plan to actively develop it too much moving forward, as this was very much a weekend hobby experiment project. Still, it works, and I figured I would share it in case it is useful to someone. Requirement: LaunchBox 13.26 or higher What does this do? It's currently a movie importer plus metadata and artwork scraper. It is designed for people who already have a local movie collection organized for apps like Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby. It imports that folder into LaunchBox with minimal fuss. It also downloads and configures MPV so movies can launch cleanly as an "emulator", and be used with a controller. Metadata and artwork provided by TheTVDB. Installation Close LaunchBox Download the 7z archive Unblock the archive in Windows if needed (Right click > Properties > Unblock) Extract it into your LaunchBox Plugins folder Your structure should end up like this: LaunchBox\Plugins\CinemaBox\CinemaBox.dll LaunchBox\Plugins\CinemaBox\CinemaBox.deps.json How to use Tools > CinemaBox Runs the import and downloads and configures MPV. Right click a movie > CinemaBox > Change Match (TVDB) Rematch the movie and re download metadata and artwork. Right click a movie > CinemaBox > Media Download (Replace Artwork) Grab alternate artwork. A few things to be aware of: Matching is based on folder and file names. If your naming is messy, results may be messy. If TheTVDB changes their API, this plugin can break. Heavy scraping could potentially hit API rate limits. MPV configuration is basic and meant to “just work”. If something breaks, feel free to post about it. I'll be checking in every now and then, and may be able to fix it. Uninstall Close LaunchBox Delete the folder: LaunchBox\Plugins\CinemaBox7 points -

Hey all, First time poster here. Love this series, thank you so much Viking! I'm hoping to help the effort. Here are some videos for platforms I couldn't find. I may have bent the rules on a couple, feel free to delete if I went too far and it doesn't fit. For the typical Sega cabinets set ups, I kept true to the rules. Where I deviated was on Incredible Technologies, Adrenaline, and American Laser Games. Since those platforms requires a unique set up,( e.g. IT with track ball or Adrenaline with touch screen), I felt like a normal cabinet wouldn't pay tribute. Anyhow feel free to remove if it's too outside... just wanted to share in case anyone else needs them. I also created a "Rare Systems" Platform video to help capture the ones-y, twos-y game makers in one platform to prevent a scrolling nightmare - all the while attempting to pay proper proper tribute. On top of that, I created a Clone Hero platform and a Wow Action Max.
