Best way to manually add box art that doesn't scrape?
-
I've got a few hundred ROM Hacks and homebrews that won't scrape. I actually have all the art files I need, but what is the best way to manually add them?
Please tell me there is a better way to add the box art for these than having to edit every single one individually in the gameslist.xml
Thank you!

Steven Selph's Scraper can add local artwork for roms that are not yet in the
gamelist.xml, see here:https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Scraper/#scraping-your-own-images
I think this should also work with videos, as there are also options for videos like the ones used for images in the example command in the link, i.e.
-video_format,-download_videos, and-video_suffix. -
@clyde Thanks! That's an option I wasn't aware of with the scraper.
Have there been any art or rom managers written for Retropie? I've been using Hakchi on the NES Mini and it's just so easy to add box art to ROMs with that tool.

Yes, you can use ARRM.
