[SOFT] ARRM : Another Gamelist, Roms manager, and Scraper for Recalbox, Batocera, Retropie

Hi @morenr1 ,
If .zip is one of the searched extensions, ARRM will display it. It is not possible to indicate only the parent, since it is quite common to place roms in subfolders. That would be too many scenarios to handle. The solution to put in 'hidden', as you indicate, remains the solution. sorry

I just sent you an email (check your spam)

Thank you

Hi everyone,

A new version of ARRM is available:

1.9.1.3 (04/30/2022)

Added: Unitary or mass translation of Game Descriptions in the language of your choice. See wiki: http://jujuvincebros.fr/wiki/arrm/doku.php?id=translate_description_en (thanks Schmurtz for the url)
Added: When several systems are checked, it is now possible to choose the scrape engine you want and no longer only Screenscraper
Added: When creating video with overlays, if auto template is not checked, ARRM will look in the 'templates_video' directory for a template with the same name as the template currently used by ARRM. If not present, ARRM will take the currently used template it finds in 'templates'. See Wiki : http://www.jujuvincebros.fr/wiki/arrm/doku.php?id=video_overlay_en
Added: Checkbox 'compress video+overlay' allowing to compress 'video+overlay' during their creation (the 'Compress video' checkbox no longer applies to 'video+overlay'
Added: In templates, layers can be applied depending on the format (Portrait, Landscape, CD) of Screenshot/Boxart/Cartridge/Boxback. See example with the mix_splash_MAME template from TVsIan (see wiki: http://jujuvincebros.fr/wiki/arrm/doku.php?id=create_template-en#conditional_layers)
Added: In templates, screenshot can take Portrait, CD or Landscape attributes. See wiki: http://jujuvincebros.fr/wiki/arrm/doku.php?id=create_template-en#screenshot (see TVsIan template : mix_splash_MAME)
Added: When scraping on HFSDB if the game is not found with its MD5, a file %appdata%\Nexouille Soft\arrm\temp_missing_HFSDB_MD5_%system%.txt is created which could be useful to feed the HFSDB DB . See wiki: http://www.jujuvincebros.fr/wiki/arrm/doku.php?id=scraper-hfsdb-en#list_of_md5_not_found (look at template : cd portrait landscape sample)
Added: 'Round Wheel (HFSDB / Screenscraper)' button in the 'Images Options' tab allows to recover the 'round wheels' on HFSDB and Screenscraper in the wheels directory. For Screenscraper the type (carbon or steel) can be selected in the 'Assignment media Screenscraper' module
Modification: Adaptation of certain forms so that essential information can be displayed on a resolution of 1280x720
Fixed: STOP button on multi-system scrape was not acting as expected
Fixed: Steam multi-system scrape not working
Fixed: A crash could occur when ARRM wanted to use a template referenced in template_association.txt when it no longer existed
Fixed: On Steam, some artwork found was not downloaded
Fixed: the 'Hide cue/gdi/m3u' button did not have the expected behavior (the files did not take the <hidden> tag when they were in subdirectories) thank you cdaters

hi Program is great job.

I have two small problems.
-I can not skip by letter
-Some games are not sort alphabetically

nexusone13

Hi @ZzackK ,
Thanks,
you should find anwser for your problem in the wiki .
this is relative to the sortname tag option.
So Check the "Remove Sortname Tag" and save your gamelist again

I want use only "clear name" for my gamelist but I do not scraping all roms. Is possible do it fast?

nexusone13

@ZzackK

Select options you want in 'Scrape Options',
Select the roms you want
then click on 'Check Roms'

If you leave your mouse over each button, you'll see a tooltip that explains the feature

ZzackK

@nexusone13 thx

Is too many options for beginning :)

ExarKunIv

@ZzackK yes all the options are over whelming but it is so worth it with how powerful this tool is.

It is the only one I use now.

Also with how responsive @nexusone13 is. Is such a big help and he is always updating it to make it even better

nexusone13

Thank you so much @ExarKunIv for your comment

ZzackK
