Sega Cue Maker is available in both Hebrew and English. Its simple interface allows you to open any BIN file and generate its corresponding CUE file in one single step. This utility will enable you to generate CUE sheets for Sega CD, Sega Saturn, and Neo-Geo CD games. Download a little program called the Sega Cue Sheet Maker. Cue sheets are generally different for different games and different rips.
So how do I retrieve a list of filenames? Do you have the commands for me perhaps bro? I can ssh into the pie and get to the directory. I just don't know how to retrieve the filenames.
Should I just $ dir and copy-paste the filenames into pastebin? By the way the file names are screwed up in a way with no real logic. So fe The adventures of Batman & Robin. The correct name must be: 'Adventures of Batman & Robin, The (USA).cue'.
But my file has something like this: 'Adventures of Batman & Robin, The (U).cue' And for each file there is a different naming mistake. So batch renaming the files is difficult because each file has its own unique naming issue.:( I believe that the only way batch renaming might work is If you can make a script that can cross-refference lets say 70% of the incorrect named file to the correct filename.
So if it finds 3 words in one file name that can be linked to the correct filename that has the exact same 3 words in it. ES automatically creates it own gamelist.xml file. Over Samba Share the files can be opened with something like Notepad++, though the gamelist.xml does not include just the game's name.
It's where all the game's text metadata is saved, if there is any. Also: Accepted File Extensions: **.cue.bin.iso** Note:.bin files wont be displayed within Emulation Station, they will be referenced via the.cue. Wait, a sec!! I was re-reading your thread and I had a thought. If you didn't Scrape any Art it's not going to show any art. Lol no I have the art and I put it in the correct file location: (snap wheel boxart) in the rom/[system] folder.
I fetched the art manually with a great scraping tool in windows: The problem I have is that the segacd filenames (.cue.bin) are not correctly named. Now this was not a problem when fetching the media because the emumovies sync tool does not require 100% accurate names. It even renames the art file names to match the game filename. So the art file names (.png.mp4) AND the game filenames (.cue.bin) are 100% the same.
The problem is that the gamelist.xml that lists the metadata for the gameart and info has filenames listed that do not match the above. So it does not link the artfiles and the game files hence it does not portray any art in the emumovies menu. I can solve this in a couple of ways: -1. Renaming all game and art files to the correct name that exists in the gamelist.xml. Kumkuma puvvu telugu serial cast and crew. I did this for a few and it worked.
But this method is very labor intensive, will cost me at least the entire day. Have retropie create a gamelist.xml based on the filenames I gave to the game and art files. This is perhaps the easiest method but I do not know how to make retropie do this. I tried a few gamelist.xml creators/generators but none seem to use the correct formatting as required by retropie.
Thx for thinking with me! Where are my scraped images and metadata saved? Once your games have been scraped they will be located in two parts: Downloaded Images and Gamelists /home/pi/.emulationstation/downloaded_images or /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/downloaded_images and /home/pi/.emulationstation/gamelists or /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/gamelists They can also be accessed over samba shares retropie configs all emulationstation Note if you are going to make edits to any gamelist.xml you need to have exited EmulationStation first • • • • •. My game images and videos are stored in the rom folder. I did not use the scraper to get them I did it manualy so the download folder is empty. All other systems work.
I have video preview boxart etc. But this is because the rom names for those systems are correct. The problem is that my segacd rom names are incorrect. So retropie just does not show the art or video in ES menu. I got it to work by renaming the rom names to the names I found in the gamelist. Then it worked! But if I have to do this with every rom name it will take me an entire day:( • • • • •.
I'll just say the files are not named incorrectly. As I've said file name and game title are two different things. Where ever you got your Metadata from it chose to display your game title to be the game as it's file name. Scrapers just as the Built in one, SSelph, and UXS allow you to chose how you want your Game's title to display while scraping for metadata. Maybe you can try one of those methods of scraping just to acquire the text based Metadata so things like the Game Title display differently. Or you can check to see if your source of Scraping has those options as well.
