Thanks for the feedback. I will rework the import mechanism with the next releases, maybe it becomes more clear/stable.
But I did not plan to rework the mechanism in general, I think it is quite easy to understand. Of course there are a lot of methods (online, local, nfo), modes (accurate, interactive, ...) and options (addon settings or rom collection configuration). But I needed all these features myself or they have been requested by users.
If you missed these five games several times maybe there have been some options that prevented RCB from importing them. If you want to find out whats going on just try to import these five games and check why they failed. RCB is writing much to the xbmc.log so it should be possible to find out whats missing. You could also just leave it as it is because it is working now
Lets see how it feels when I have done the changes. General plan: Atm RCB skips games if it does not find enough information or artwork. In next releases I want RCB to always import all games and add more options to decide which games you want to see while browsing the list instead. With this mechanism it will be easier to implement rescrape mechanisms and to see the current state of your Rom Collection (how many games are available, how many info is missing, ...).
