    @greekmanx Yes, line 64 is for Basic and Detailed Views. I wasn't sure if the same change would help both those and Video View, or if you would need to work them out separately.

    I'm glad it worked out for you.

      @lilbud I have downloaded your latest version from github and now I have giant marquees on top left of the screen and are on top of everything.

      Definetively you need to fix the theme placing marquees in the right place or moving it out from the screen to don't display them.

      Edit: the problem is that there is not "md_marquee" entry inside video view in flat.xml... for some reason you removed it and broken the theme.

      Also the right name for turbograph 16 folder it's tg16.

        For those who want to fix marquees in this theme open flat.xml and replace:

        <view name="video">
        		<video name="md_video">
        			<pos>0.254 0.202</pos>
        			<origin>0 0</origin>
        			<size>0.185 0.327</size>
        			<delay>0.0</delay>
        			<default>./assets/default.mp4</default>
        			<showSnapshotNoVideo>false</showSnapshotNoVideo>
        			<showSnapshotDelay>false</showSnapshotDelay>
        		</video>
        	</view>
        

        With:

        <view name="video">
        		<image name="md_marquee">
        			<origin>0 0</origin>
        			<pos>0.800 0.01</pos>
        			<maxSize>0.19 0.10</maxSize>
        		</image>
        		<video name="md_video">
        			<pos>0.254 0.202</pos>
        			<origin>0 0</origin>
        			<size>0.185 0.327</size>
        			<delay>0.0</delay>
        			<default>./assets/default.mp4</default>
        			<showSnapshotNoVideo>false</showSnapshotNoVideo>
        			<showSnapshotDelay>false</showSnapshotDelay>
        		</video>
        	</view>

          @Nismo would I have to remove the tag from each theme.XML?

                @lilbud I explained well, just replace in flat.xml that's all.

                For NES I edited theme.xml inside nes folder to write short name "Nintendo NES" that way marquee is not on top of the name of that system.

                I also correctly renamed turbografx 16 folder to "tg16" to fix that system was not themed.

                    @greekmanx Yes, inside the flat theme folder there is a flat.xml file, just edit that file and replace the code with the one I provided a few posts ago, and save changes. Now marquees should display correctly (if you have them) and not giant logos on top of everything.

                      I have attempted to install the theme on the latest version of retropie and all I get is the blank theme... I can't explain why, as I looked trough the flat.xml file and the syntax seems to be OK.

                        I love this theme, except for the colors on the background of the system carousel. I created a fork that just has grey backgrounds there, in case anybody is interested in that modification. Everything else is the same great theme (great work lilbud)!

                          @lilbud Is the grid view available? Or is that a concept? Or is there some way to do it with the master that I don't understand?

                            @hooperre that was a concept, it takes a lot of time for grid view, of which I have none currently. Been too busy playing Breath of the Wild, (35 hours and counting, I need help.)

                            I'll probably do that when grid view is in the official branch.

                            UPDATE: 39 hours and 3 minutes

                                @robertybob I would think so, unfortunately I have no say in accepting themes. Probably have to ask @herb_fargus
