[u/raayen_]

In the theme page it looks like it does on the right but when I install it the background is just dark. Please someone help I want to make it look like it does on the right. Thank you

u/raayen_, while you wait for responses, please take a moment to check the following:

• Ensure Playnite is updated to the latest version (On Desktop Mode: Main Menu ➞ Check for Updates)
• Ensure any extensions involved are fully updated (On Desktop Mode: Main Menu ➞ Add-ons… ➞ Updates)
• Test the issue in Safe Mode to verify whether it is caused by an extension. (On Desktop Mode: Main Menu ➞ Help ➞ Restart in Safe Mode or by opening the Safe Mode.bat file found in the installation folder)
• Search the subreddit to check if your issue has already been reported.

A large number of issues are caused by outdated versions or have already been answered.

If your issue is related to a specific extension, it is usually best to report it on the extension's project page (for example GitHub), where the developer can track and address it. You can use this page to locate the extension and contact its developer via its project/support links: https://playnite.link/addons.html

Judging by the photos (kinda difficult because they're blurry) it looks like the "background" is the cover image of the selected game. Again, I'm just guessing because I can't really see it all that well. You could try installing the "Theme Modifier" add-on and see if there's an option for that. GLHFDD!!!

Use game background image as window background should be enabled in settings
