froggystyle Posted October 10, 2023 Report Share Posted October 10, 2023 ahh lovely, i did think a screen grab would be easier. Is there an option to grab a video also? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davep180 Posted October 10, 2023 Report Share Posted October 10, 2023 I think there is a video grab available through the front end. Have you had a look at the touch play web site? I haven’t really used this front end myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggystyle Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 Not a lot of info in the forum over on touch play, i managed to sort images, had to create a new folder to put them in, which i find odd but hey ho it works for me, ill perhaps try videos tonight. I would like to put some music now on the main menu and then add pinball tables and some retro arcade games, more tinkering to be done! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

froggystyle Posted October 23, 2023 Report Share Posted October 23, 2023 Started playing with Touchplay a little more over the weekend, put some videos in for fruitys and works well, have tried Mame also and that works easy enough, having issues getting the rom set i have fully work though, think i need to get the latest version, 0.259, need to have a bit more of a play with pinball tables also and get some working. Also just picked up a 32" touchscreen monitor off ebay, that should be here in time for some playing over the weekend. Ill stick a video up when its all working a little smoother. Will look good in the pubshed when complete! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggystyle Posted October 23, 2023 Report Share Posted October 23, 2023 With fruit machines and a touch screen, is it just a case of plug and play, are the buttons that you see on the screen working links to the keys stated in the start up screen?

Usually! In most cases you press the touchscreen on the buttons and they will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggystyle Posted October 23, 2023 Report Share Posted October 23, 2023 Thanks! looking forward to playing with it all now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggystyle Posted November 22, 2023 Report Share Posted November 22, 2023 All looking good now, touch screen was just plug and play so fruit machines are more fun as i dont have to use a mouse to hit some of the buttons. Have managed to get mame/mfme and virtual pinball all running in Touchplay, the pc starts up and loads straight into it, i just need to now load more images and videos and tidy up the names.. Ill get a video up at some point. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruity Nut Posted December 7, 2023 Report Share Posted December 7, 2023 Little late to the party and loving Touch-Play so far. Couple of questions... Anyone know what folder I add any icons for each machine like this one? How do I update Touch-Play? Even though I've just installed, it says there's an update available :- Thank You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah strange one. No one seems to know. There doesn't seem to be a newer version available on the official site yet is says there's an update but no way to actually do it!

WibbleWobble Posted June 19, 2024 Report Share Posted June 19, 2024 @Pinovogel The drive that the install was on has sadly died a year or so back, but I might have a backup on DVD, will see if I can dig it out, but no promises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

froggystyle Posted March 13, 2025 Report Share Posted March 13, 2025 All been working well with this front end apart from when Windows updates, touchplay then will not load, just hangs at the start screen, i then have to re-install and set everything up again, which is a ball ache! I am going to set it up again and try and stop Windows from updating going forward, although i think later this year it will not update anymore as its Windows 10..

jindraaa Posted June 7, 2025 Report Share Posted June 7, 2025 Is this still in development? I'm having a slight issue where machines with a 'star rating' are showing double like "viewing all" and 1 doesn't launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
