Please Pieter Hulshoff I need the <video> tag of the layout to stop when loading a game. Background video is heard while playing the game.

[Pieter Hulshoff]

When does it do that? With all emulators or just some or ...? RetroFE waits until the emulator is done, so unless the emulator returns before it is complete this should not happen.

It will be cool if RetroFE would detect automatically the first letter in the game name and if the layout have a xml entry for letters (like the set ikarikoitz used) will show the corresponding letter provided by the layout.
-<letter tag> in layout.xml
-<layout folder/common/letter/a.png;b.png......z.png

When I play in retroarch the <video> of the layout is still listening.

The problem is with the <video> tag.
The <reloadableVideo> tag works without problems.

[Pieter Hulshoff]

That sounds easy enough to add. I'll have a look.

I'll also check out the <video> tag issue.

Thanks Pieter Hulshoff 

ryuuji and Pieter HulshoffWe we could chat using the Discord application to speed up the correction of bugs and errors that we find in RetroFE.

I think I could use a few more programmers to get all the wishes implemented. 😀 My spare time is rather limited after all.

Ok, I released 0.8.3 at http://retrofe.nl/SMF/index.php?topic=150.msg1445#msg1445
Let me know if that helps any.

The "firstLetter" type works great! I no longer need to do tricks to display the index of letters.

The problem with the <video> tag has also been fixed. Thank you so much Pieter Hulshoff, you're the boss.

I love your work igarikoitz! Awesome piece of work!
Really looking forward to your theme and I hope you'll share it with the rest of the community. I've watched your videos on YouTube multiple times and I think you have some fantastic ideas. There are only a few good themes for arcade front-ends (themes that are not "bloated" and crowded) and yours is definitively one of the best!

If I can help you out with any scripts that mass generate images or such, please get in touch with me.

A sample of how is the new theme "Aura"

Tomorrow I will edit the video to show it to 1080P and with sound. Sorry but here in Spain it's too late and I'm getting up early to go to work

Cool. Wish RetroFE could support a designed button press to show/hide game details .
Keep it up!

[NeoID]

Wow, that's impressive. If that would to become the default theme for RetroFE it would be without doubt the nicest front-end out there. I just love how clean it is and the icons!

I assume the "information"-page is timing based? Would be nice to be able to toggle it by pressing a button like in Kodi. There you can press "i" for information when you have a item highlighted.
