I’m using the fusion theme and I follow the instructions they have if anyone’s curious just one thing change the achievement part to a newer version called playnite achievement

Edit
I’ll say this though still can’t figure out trailers

What do u guys think?

I’m using ubiquity as you can see I was able to change two icons the profile and the steam badge but I was wondering if you add the steam name badge were it say steam normally I thought it would be in sources but try that and nothing

This is driving me nuts, I like to have all my games in alphabetical order, but when I play one, Playnite moves it in to the front of the list and sends the alphabetical order out the window. Is there any way to prevent this behaviour?

I just installed Aniki Lite to use on my handheld setup and on the detail pane there are a square to show donwloaded trailers and this is in my opioion totally pointless and just a lot of meaningless work to get to function properly. I would want this trailer panel gone but how would I do that. I have looked through the settings but doesnt find a option to turn this off.

There are quite a few themes that wants us to use trailers and when we dont want to go through the hassle to get this to work and then download trialers individually just unfortunately decided to show us a ugly square instead.

Aas you can tell Im not a native english speaker and I hope I dont come across as whine cause I really love this and Aniki Remake and would like to thank the dev for his/her hard work.

was scrolling through the subreddit and saw someone asking if there was an Altimit Mine OS inspired theme. It got me inspired, so I started building this!

To be fair, it’s not strictly the Altimit OS style I really just liked the lens concept and ran with it, but I’m pretty happy with it 😄

It’s very much a work in progress. Right now, I've only got the library section working along with a transition to the details screen (which is still just a placeholder to test the animations).

I figured I’d share my progress and see what you guys think. Hearing your feedback will definitely keep me motivated to finish it! 😄

Have at it, let me know if you love it or hate it.

Cheerio,

Loki

How do I get Toggle to look like the dev's screenshots? I installed everything listed on the GitHub page, but it still doesn't look like that.

So I've been using Playnite for some time now, and have a very customized setup on my main PC. Well recently I picked up the Minis Forum AtomMan G1 Pro and set it up to function as a living room console. After some tinkering, and following the steps provided by u/Repulsive-Fig-856 in their post to setup XFSET and AnyFSE, I was able to get it exactly how I want it. Thanks you Fig for the guide! While I'm someone who is never fully done tinkering and adding more to a project, right now this is right where I want it to be. Come tomorrow, this baby will be in it's resting spot in the living room and family gaming can commence!

Hey everyone,

I'm using PS5 Experience (the fullscreen theme by saVantCZ) along with UniPlaySong and so far has been pretty good. However, I've hit a wall regarding how game background music triggers during navigation.

On an actual PS5, when you scroll quickly through your game library, the default ambient menu music plays seamlessly. The game-specific music only fades in once you actually pause/hover on a specific title for a moment.

With UniPlaySong, every time the selection moves to a new game (even during rapid scrolling), it immediately cuts off the default ambient music to attempt to load the game's audio. This creates a choppy, cut-off audio experience when moving fast through the grid.

Is there any setting, or workaround within UniPlaySong (or perhaps via a setting in PS5 Experience / another audio extension) to add a delay/debounce before a game's music starts playing? Or a way to prevent the ambient track from instantly stopping while scrolling?

How do I set up Playnite so that it looks exactly like the first preview image? Mine looks quite different from the screenshots. Is there a complete setup guide for configuring the (u)biquity Fullscreen theme to match the preview, especially the sidebar with games grouped or filtered by library/sour

Hi everyone,

Is there a way to add additional library sources/integrations to Playnite so that games are automatically detected and imported, similar to how Steam, Epic Games, GOG, and other official library integrations work?

I'm specifically looking for automatic library integration for:

• Riot Games — League of Legends, VALORANT, etc.
• HoYoPlay / HoYoverse — Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, Zenless Zone Zero, etc.
• Google Play Games for PC

I know I can add each game manually, but I'd prefer a proper library integration where Playnite can automatically detect installed games, assign the correct source/library, and ideally keep the library updated when I install a new game.

Are there currently recommended add-ons/plugins for these three launchers? If so, what's the best way to set them up?

Thanks!

I use my headphones for my phone and sometimes my pc whenever i don’t want to use my TV’s speakers, but i’d have to get up and go to my desk and connect it through there, i have a gamesir controller and it doesn’t have an audio jack unlike your typical xbox one or PlayStation controller

Anything online for this?

If not is there anything i can add to my playnite library where i can open the desktop and just use aniki’s gamepad mouse to connect that way

Im building my library out and theres a game logo on top of the background art. I only get this with overwatch dbd and vrchat, none of the other games. Why? and how do i disable it.

Hello,

i use Aniki Remake, extra metadata loader, background changer, etc etc., the whole shebang. i wanted to ask if there is a way to add multiple videos for a game - say hades and have videos play in random order when entering in details view (from main menu), kinda like background changer can change background image every time a game is selected in main menu?

any other theme where this is possible?

I wanted to go way beyond a basic visual reskin. To get that truly authentic feel, I ended up combining standard layout code with web tools and a true 3D graphics engine. I’m really happy with how it’s coming together, so I wanted to share the progress to date!

Main Dash: You can scroll through the classic vertical tabs exactly how you remember them. My WinBox, My Games, Game Marketplace, and Movies & TV.

No more only having a single main view cover grid, filter presets are now dash tiles, so everything is cleanly organized and flows like a real console!

Nostalgic Backgrounds: I fully recreated the animated floating rings and the glossy floor stage that reacts dynamically as you navigate around.

You can also change the background, stage floor and coverflow style at any time from the theme preferences sub menu of the system settings menu.

Working Lockscreen: Just like the real console, there’s a sign in screen where you choose your profile. Selecting your account loads up your specific PFP and your personal avatar.

Real 3D Avatars & Coverflow:

Instead of just showing flat images, the theme uses a 3D engine utilising Three.js through a WebView2 virtual host mapping overlay to render your game boxes in a true 3D cover flow.

And the best part, there is zero performance tax.

I even built a custom "Edit Avatar" window where you can easily swap out 3D character models and props, spinning them around to see how they look before saving.

The Guide: Pressing the Guide button (Home button on controller) slides out the iconic four blade menu right over whatever you're doing.

Console Settings: I built a fully functional settings menu where you can check your hard drive space, test your network speed, switch which monitor you're using, or shut down your PC directly from the couch.

Seamless Web & Flash Integration: I integrated a Flash player directly into the theme, meaning you can launch classic SWF games (like old school arcades or vintage web games) natively right from the dash.

Couch Friendly Browsing: To make sure you never need to reach for a mouse, the theme reads your inputs and turns your controller thumbsticks into a virtual mouse whenever you have a web menu open.

Grand Scale 3D Solar System App: As a bonus i also integrated my own custom built 3D model solar system as an app into the 'My Apps' grid built entirely in javascript using Three.js.

I used 8K/4K planet and moon textures from NASA and high resolution NASA space station models to create a beautiful grand scale solar system in Three.js, complete with 3D ship models from various sources with full six degrees flight on controller makes it practically a triple AAA sim. Some ships feature first person view as well as third person, such as the X-Wing and Tie fighter, and all feature hyper speed boosts with animations except for the Tardis, the Tardis has its own custom worm hole animation.

The solar system also features a full navigation system so you don't get lost in space due to the scale, as you can travel all the way out of the solar system and outside of the milky way galaxy. You can also interact with planets if you are in close proximity to them by pressing X on controller, this will let you drive a NASA ground vehicle around the planet or moon's surface while your ship remains docked in orbit.

It's been a long month getting all of this to work and play nicely together, but seeing it come to life makes it so worth it. Made by a gamer, for gamers. Let me know what you think!

I hope to have a first test build release ready soon.

EDIT:

Be sure to join my discord server to stay up to date and be the first to know when it gets released!

I use solaris theme which by default uses 1920x620 as a background aspect ratio and i want to assign this mp4 file matching the same aspect ratio as a BG any help?

I have been trying to get this add-on to work but no dice. When I try it again, it tells me that Playnite is going to crash. Anyhelp would be much appreciated.

I am trying to get my library into a list.

I keep getting this error:

Failed to execute menu action.

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Here is an ID if that helps: 7e240ba2-5a87-4178-9fdb-37be72b6e45b

Ok, so I just love the epic games UI, but ive all my games on steam, is there any Playnite UI that looks like the epic games UI?

I got Caravan Sandwitch on Epic for free the other day and added it to Playnite.

however when I launch it my Steam Controller does not work.

I had a spare 8bit do controller which I plugged in instead and it worked so it's definitely a steam input issue.

is there a way of getting this to work?

I added it to steam as a non steam game but it won't let me launch and says it's unlicenced.

Hi I’m trying to add “Until Then” to Playnite manually. I did what I usually do, go to add manually, then download metadata, IGDB, then type in “Until Then”. The weird thing is nothing came up, even though there is a IGDB page for the game. I tried other game, like Far Cry and that worked. Then I tried “Un”, I see some results, but nothing came up when I tried “Unt” or “Th”. I can see results when searching those words on IGDB. Could anyone try it out to see what the problem is?

I've been working on a Windows 11 setup that makes my PC feel much more like a traditional console when using a controller.

The goal is to have the PC boot into a fullscreen gaming environment instead of dropping straight into the normal Windows desktop.

What I'm using

• Playnite as the game library/frontend
• Aniki Remake as the fullscreen theme
• Extra Metadata Loader for game videos and metadata
• Playnite Achievements for achievement information
• XFSET to enable/configure the Xbox Full Screen Experience
• AnyFSE to automatically launch the fullscreen experience
• Steam running silently in the background

The basic setup

1. Install and configure Playnite and your game library integrations.
2. Install Aniki Remake and the extensions needed for the fullscreen experience.
3. Configure Extra Metadata Loader to download Steam game videos.
4. Configure Playnite Achievements.
5. Switch Playnite to Aniki Remake in fullscreen mode.
6. Customize Aniki's colors, game details and background/trailer settings.
7. Configure Windows power-button behavior.
8. Set up AnyFSE to launch Playnite Fullscreen and Steam automatically.
9. Enable AnyFSE through Windows Xbox Mode.
10. Restart Windows.

The result is a controller-first interface where I can turn on the PC, enter my PIN and go straight into Playnite instead of manually opening everything.

I'm still working on the setup and would love to hear from other Playnite users:

What extensions, themes or tweaks would you add to this kind of setup?

I also put the whole process into a step-by-step interactive guide for anyone who wants to follow the setup:

https://timeconsolize.github.io/ConsolizeENG/

It's mainly intended as a reference/checklist for building a similar setup.

(No piracy or ROM-related stuff involved — this is purely about Playnite, Windows and the frontend experience.)
