Wiki has the info (added .exe name). It’s the only .exe in the program… https://github.com/xantari/PinCab.Configurator/wiki

Ok, sounds like media base is private source of data and is not available for public use. It won’t get added to the program. I am only aggregating what is publicly available, not any private sources. All the frontends have hookins to IPDB info, some distribute it as a .csv files (PinballX,PinballY), pinup popper’s in the GameLookup table. The indexing is super light weight, it only takes 3-5 seconds to update a sites index and doesn’t use much data as only the raw text content is downloaded, so it’s usually only taking a few HTTP calls (typically 1-10 depending on how many new items are there). This equates to usually < 100kb of data as it isn't required to download anything except the HTML (no scripts, images, etc). It's the same thing Google, Bing are allowed to do, and is really just an automated Dux Retro spreadsheet but without the nice relationship linking that Dux has done. If any site owner doesn't want to have this information available they can open an issue request on the github site or PM me privately and I'll remove them from the index and it will be up to the end users who want to use the program to create their own indexes.

Apparently there is a media library browser somewhere in popper. Can’t find it.
Looks like this.
[Redacted the screenshot that was attached to the Github Issue request as it is a private server]

Is BAM integrated into the main VP VR branch at this point or you still have to use a patched version?
EDIT. Read further up in this post, looks like it’s included. Disregard!

Yep, just like VPS Spreadsheet / Google / Bing, etc. If there was an open API like vpdb.io that would be unnecessary. Luckily it only takes about 2-3 seconds per website as it only does incremental changes.

2 users thanked author for this post.
Site is much faster right now. I noticed the chat feature is gone (which i’m OK with as I never used it). That chat widget caused some long page load times i bet.
If you ever want to bring back chat, I’d recommend just setting up a link to a discord channel instead of the “flyzoo??” stuff.Â

@randr Very nice! Thanks!

@randr yep, add another file button works now. However shouldn’t there be a delete or remove file button as well next to each file?

Hmm, seems like the “hm_bbpuip_image ” issue is not showing for me anymore. Not sure if it’s something you did, or me using chrome dev tools to try see whats wrong (which has caching disabled and forces re-download of javascript). So could have been a browser caching issue where I had the old javascript cached…
The other issues I reported are still present however.

@randr Nope, using Chrome.

Another issue to report (i reported it months ago to one of the admin emails). So not related to latest updates, but reporting it anyways, click in the author links on the image slider on the home page doesn’t work. Looks like it just has the wrong URL to the user profile.
It’s just missing this part of the URL: /all-vpb-users/

bp-protfolio-pro is causing some script issues that you can see on the home page. Looks like it’s using the old .live() function of jquery which doesn’t exist anymore in the version of jquery the site is using (3.5.1).
It appears your using jquery-migrate, so not sure whats going on.

Also, the “Add Another File” button is broken. You can only add one file now.

Also getting the hm_bbpuip_image issue (Using Chrome)
Additionally, go look at this page: https://vpinball.com/VPBdownloads/altsound-diner-williams-1990-american-graffiti-remix/#description
The “Download Info” section at the top of the page is duplicated at the bottom of the page. (The Download Info section on the right hand side of page)

Not sure, since it’s all just the text pieces of IPDB (no images) my guess is it should be OK.
Right now PinballX, PinballY, PinballX Database Manager all have their own variants of data from IPDB in .csv format and have for years and distributed with their products but don’t receive updates often. The plan is to just schedule this weekly and you’ll see the Git check-in with all the diffs from that weeks automatic check-in.
If your not using IPDB info to fill in game info, how else will you do it?

For anyone getting failures on 3.4 P-ROC install on step 2:
Installing PyPinProc
Installation FAILED. Exiting….Be sure no other versions of python are installed…
Looks like you need 2.7, but having 3.8.5 for instance caused me problems.
It appears Node.js installs newer version of Python as a dependency and that is what gets set in your environment variables.
Sigh.

Cool, which key assignment do I assign to each level of the leaf switch in VPX? I only see one setting for left flipper. Should be two settings (left flipper light press, and left flipper full press) ??

I have one enhancement suggestion. I have a real doctor who, and the left flipper button has double leaf switches, where light press would activate only the left lower flipper, and full press activates both left upper and left lower flippers.
How could that be implemented if I have double leaf switches?
