Skyscraper: Manually added videos do not show up in gamelist.xml

[maschine]

Hi folks,

I used the fantastic Skyscraper tool which only missed a couple of videos. Thus, I added those missing snaps manually in the respective folder /roms/SYSTEM/media/videos. I used exactly the same file name like the rom, with the mp4 extension. Next, I executed the "generate game list" command in skyscraper. However, the new videos do not show up in the gamelist.xml. Please advise, thank you.

You can use a text editor to manually enter the data between the appropriate tags in that console's gamelist.xml file.

@iandaemon Thank you. This will surely do the job for a small number of videos. I am currently looking in the import function for automation.

@maschine You need to import them into the Skyscraper cache before regenerating the gamelists. Read how to do that here.

EDIT: Haha, just noticed you already commented about that yourself. Oh well.
