Please Test: Adding support for "All", "Favorites" and "Last Played" systems

@evildindon favorites are indeed metadata from the games, stored in the gamelist files. If you re-scrape or delete those files, they will certainly be deleted.

Also note that metadata only saves on closing of ES, so if it crashes it won't save them.

Could that be what you're going through?

Best.

Hey thanks, I perfectly understand now.

Re-scrape = bye bye favorites.

Good to know. ;)

@tmntturtlguy speed does not matter, I have tried slow scrolling too. Thanks.

@pjft sorry for the delay, I have been checking my email waiting for replies...damn I'll have to check my settings again...

5600 Games.
Scrolling down and up.
Video Player? not sure where to check this. OMX is on. (not sure if that is what you mean).
VRAM=90Mb.
I can jump over those games with R1!!! Wow didn't even know I could do that.
It varies where it fails depending on if I am scrolling from the bottom up or the top down. I can scroll the complete list except for what I think is the very middle of the list. When I got stuck while writing this; it worked on Muhammad Ali's Heavyweight Boxing, and it failed on Multi Amenity Cassette System Bios, I deleted that and scrolled up from the bottom and it worked on Muscle Bomber Duo...and failed on another version of Muscle Bomber.
Normal game lists are fine, and I can scroll past those games in their respective normal game list.

Also before testing today I removed the overclock so that's not the issue. Thanks for looking into this.

@ohmycommodore said in Please Test: Adding support for "All", "Favorites" and "Last Played" systems:

@bigman1982 i've wondered whether All Games would be taxing when trying to navigate through it. there's not a huge use for that collection, in my case at least, compared to the others.

I agree that I will not use it much but right now I am using it to clean up my build. I will hide it in the future most likely (especially if it conntinues to crash my Pi)

@bigman1982 let's move this here:

While I'm quite confident it's not necessarily related to collections, I want to try to dig into this.

Thanks!
