General / New install, couple of questions
« on: June 18, 2017, 04:44:11 PM »
Good evening all... I am new (as of today) to this front end, but i like it.
couple of questions.
1. I have 2 versions of mame I use. one for some other roms that i simply cant get running on newer versions, so I keep an older one around. Problem is if I try to do the 2nd mame and use artwork, and what not and it doesnt quite work because it doesnt recognize mame1, because it had to be named something different.
2. for the love of pete has anyone figured out a way to purge duplicates? tens of thousands of roms, I can not go through one by one
id love a way to just remove duplicates, and non working. one filter i have set up is working for duplicates, but how can i do versioning too? so I dont have to see every version as well? maybe thats a start.
3. EDIT - is there any way to scroll by letter or something? with 20,000 games it takes forever to get anywhere, is it simply up and down game by game?
thanks all, this forum is quite good, with nice folks.
