📋 Summary

Add a feature or standalone tool within LaunchBox that can dynamically generate Playlist Theme Videos using a user’s existing media and library data. This would allow users to create personalized, visually cohesive videos for playlists such as Favorites, Series, or Genres—without requiring manual video editing.

🎯 Feature Overview

• A built-in or companion Playlist Theme Video Generator that:

  • Uses existing media assets (Clear Logos, Gameplay Videos, Screenshots, Backgrounds, and Music).

  • Provides a selection of customizable templates to determine the visual layout and transitions.

  • Automatically generates unique theme videos for:

    • 🎮 Platform or Playlist overviews.

    • ⭐ Favorites or Completed Games collections.

    • 📚 Series-based playlists (e.g., “Final Fantasy Collection”).

• Optional ability to upload or select extra assets (e.g., character renders or artwork) for richer presentation.

🛠 Example Use Case

A user has a “Favourites” playlist for PlayStation 2 and wants a custom intro video.

• The tool selects Clear Logos and short gameplay clips from the user’s media library.

• Combines them into a short, animated montage using a selected visual style.

• The result is a personalized, platform-specific theme video generated entirely from the user’s collection.

📦 Benefits

• 🎨 Gives every playlist or collection a professional, polished look.

• ⚙️ Automatically updates as playlists change (e.g., when adding new favorites).

• 🧩 Encourages creativity without requiring video editing software.

• 🚀 Saves time and simplifies customization for Big Box themes.

💡 Notes

This could be implemented either as:

• A built-in tool within LaunchBox under the Tools menu, or

• A standalone companion app that integrates with the user’s LaunchBox library.

Templates could evolve over time or even be community-shared, allowing creators to design and distribute new visual styles for everyone to use.
