Xenia Manager

Xenia Manager is a community frontend for the Xenia Xbox 360 emulator with 1k+ Stars and 1.4M downloads as of Aug 2026. It is led by its maintainers. I contribute to the Avalonia frontend and built its Big Screen Mode.

Big Screen Mode is a console style frontend for Xenia Manager built as a separate Avalonia app in the same solution. It is designed to be used with a controller and covers the main flows you would expect on a console: dashboard, library, gallery, game details and settings.

• Dashboard Recent games row with dynamic backgrounds, header stats and a clean, centred layout. Navigation is row based rather than relying on keyboard focus.
• Library Carousel and list views with sorting and a details pane. The choice is persisted and can be swapped live.
• Gallery Grid of screenshots with sorting and a viewer that keeps selection in sync when moving between grid and viewer.
• Game details Modal with panes for achievements, installed content, patches, screenshots and per game settings, all navigable with the controller.
• Profiles and settings Profile picker and management, plus settings for appearance, background, card art and controller options.
• Controller input SDL3 based gamepad support moved into Core with hold repeat, primary controller selection and status for battery and network.

• #566 feat(library): Open Game Location Added "Open Game Location" and "Copy Game ID" options to the library context menu, plus a notification service for copy confirmation and errors.
• #560 feat(ui): Steam Theme Added a Steam theme to the theme selector.
• #559 fix(theme): Use SystemAccentColorBrush in Card Header Fixed icons hard-stuck on Xbox green in Manage Xenia and About views so they follow the active theme.
• #553 refactor(themes): Deduplicated code for ThemeDisplayItem option Extracted duplicated theme creation code from the welcome dialog and settings page into the Theme Service.
