General Discussion & Help / How To Pause Retrofe During Emulator Launch
« on: February 20, 2022, 06:17:57 AM »
How can I get retrofe to "stop/pause" playing attract mode videos/audios when I launch a game? What's happening is that I have a theme that as you cycle through games it shows videos (with audio) of the game but when I select and start a game although the game starts the issue is that retrofe seems to continue to run in the background so I can hear the "attract" mode videos/audio playing along with the actual game being played. Any way to "pause" retrofe while a game is being played?

General Discussion & Help / RetroFE Crashing After New Sound Card Installed
« on: January 17, 2022, 05:24:00 PM »
After installing a Startech 7.1 USB sound card & driver on my Windows 10 setup, Retrofe randomly crashes while in attract mode (shuffling between random videos of gameplay in my collections). It only happens when RetroFE is in attract mode. When I disable the sound card in device manager then the problem goes away but, obviously I get no sound, so it's certainly related to the driver/sound card. Any ideas as to what to try? No errors on retrofe log. It just quits after a few minutes of attract mode.

Help / Flashing Image
« on: July 03, 2021, 01:15:02 AM »
I would like to place an arrow that flashes on/off (to call the players attention to something) on the layout. Tried using an animated gif but that doesn’t seem to work so is there another way to mimic an animated ON//OFF image?

General Discussion & Help / Help with Layout.xml
« on: June 21, 2021, 02:55:36 PM »
I would like to "hide" an image when a game starts (ongamestart) but I haven't been able to figure out the code to make that work. This is the section of my existing layout.xml that loads the image so could someone reply w/ what code I need to add so that the image is not visible (alpha=0) while the game is running? Thanks!


<reloadableImage type="topper" mode="Layout" monitor="2" alpha="1" y="1500" x="center" xOrigin="center" yOrigin="center" height="1800" width="1000" layer="1">
<onMenuIdle >           
<set duration="1.0">               
<animate type="alpha" to="1" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>           
</set>       
</onMenuIdle >
<onMenuScroll >           
<set duration="0.2">               
<animate type="alpha" to="0" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
</set>       
</onMenuScroll > 
 </image>
