Hi KODser, 0.9.5 was released and the ROM Collection importing/exporting should be working OK.
If you want to have a Sonic The Hedgehog ROM Collection with full artwork (only first ROM has flyer and some banners are missing, though) please download these 2 files: Sonic.json and Sonic_assets.json. Place them together in a directory than can be read by Kodi. Go to ROM Collections context menu, Import Collection, navigate and select Sonic.json. When you are asked if you want to import assets then select YES. You should have a brand new Sonic ROM Collection with (almost) all artwork in place.
Yesterday I told you that in order to support AEL you will need at least 2 views: One for Categories/Launchers and another for ROMs. Actually, you will need 3 views: one for Cateogires/Launchers, one for Console ROMs and another for Arcade/MAME ROMs. Reason is that the artwork available for Console and Arcade ROMs is quite different: for example, most Arcade ROMs have flyer but only a few Console ROMs have flyer. Also, Boxfront, boxback and cartridge when using a MAME launcher should contain cabinets, control panels and PBCs. Have a look at the second post in AEL thread for examples using the AEL debug view. In a few days I will publish an arcade collection you can use to test/develop your views.
Any question you may have or any request please ask in this thread or in AEL thread.
