Sorry if this is a dumb question.

As someone who has used hyperspin and has most of the art and emumovies downloaded for all my roms. How are you displaying it all in Kodi?

Are you importing those art assets via another addon like advanced launcher?

I got my roms working in kodi with retroplayer. just don't know how to add all my art and movie previews.

Thanks
Artwork needs skin support. I'll include this when I merge my game library work.
I created http://thegamesdb.net in the hopes that Kodi would eventually have game support Smile
Thegamesdb is a great site! Would be awesome if this became a default option for Kodi.
I'm building a new python-based scraper system where the python scripts are short rules that describe how to derive further metadata

I wrote a rule for thegamesdb.net a year and a half ago. you can see it here: thegamesdb.py

IARL is getting ready to scrape metadata for its games. The next step is to create script.module.heimdall. If anyone wants exposure to Heimdall, copying some files into a Kodi add-on would be a good way to start.

This is a great site - really hope it gets more community support! I've tried to fill in some blanks here and there myself. Question: any plans to build in "instruction manual" support? Who knows, maybe eventually Retroplayer could work that in as well...
