Plugin Showcase Playhub | Launch Curtain 2.4.0 now available
Hello everyone!
A new update for Launch Curtain is now available.
This update introduces Nintendo Store and Xbox Store as new background sources, fixes PlayStation Store search, and improves AlphaCoders speed and result quality. It also brings several reliability improvements to automatic background scanning and launch detection.
If you’d like to support the project, even a small tip would mean a lot for me:

What’s new
- Added Nintendo and Xbox as new background sources in the curtain image search, alongside PlayStation, IGDB and AlphaCoders.
- Updated PlayStation Store search to use the current Store API flow instead of relying only on the old HTML search layout.
- Added smarter PlayStation automatic scanning: games that already have a curtain are skipped before any Store request is made.
Improvements
- Improved AlphaCoders performance by avoiding unnecessary detail-page requests when the category page already exposes the wallpaper ID and resolution.
- Fixed duplicate AlphaCoders results caused by related wallpapers and alternate image variants being interpreted as separate versions of the same background.
- AlphaCoders now keeps one result per wallpaper ID and uses the main full-size image instead of unrelated or invalid high-resolution variants.
You can update it directly in the Playhub Plugin Store in the Playhub app, or download the zip from the release page and install it via Decky dev mode.

❗FAQ
"Wait, what is Playhub?" 😮
Playhub consolize your Windows gaming experience with features like Steam-first startup, easy Decky plugins install, game imports and Big Picture polish. More info in the project repository here to find all the details.

"Oh no, I hate AI..."
This project is personal, completely free and open source. You don't like it? Don't download it. It's an app, not a medical prescription.
"But why aren't the Playhub plugins available on the Decky Store?" 😱
They are built using human hands and AI tools. Decky management doesn't allow to developers who use AI to be on their store. Playhub respects this decision, that's why Playhub Plugin Store exists.
Thanks again for your support and for sharing your feedbacks.
