Title: 2 issues, 1 request
Post by: f205v on 26 July 2009, 21:11
ISSUE 1:
in batchrun, the new "never/always scan subfolder" is not saved correctly in between sessions.

ISSUE 1:
Sets with wrong name that clrmame could not rename (same name already existing in the same folder) are not moved to backup folder.

REQUEST:
backup folder is a general setting, valid for the whole clrmame. Would it be possible to make it a "per datfile" setting?

1) I will have a look
2) for this the belonging scanner advanced option (move not renamed sets to backup) has to be enabled (if you got it enabled, send me example files where it doesn't work for you)
3) actually the backupfolder is a a general setting but only specifies the rootname. Each datfile produces its own subfolder in there.

1) Ok, thanks
2) It's checked. It is usually happening with .png files which are kept unzipped. Last time it occurred to me was updating AntoPISa snap collection from .132 to .133. I keep snap collections unzipped in their respective folder.
3) Yes, I know about subfolders; but that's not what I need. I was looking to possibly set backup folder on a per set base, like: - with mame.exe use as backup folder c:\unsortedarcade and with mametitles.dat use as backupfolder d:\temp\snaps .Would it be possible?

ok...regarding 2) I will have a look. Sounds like it's for unzipped files only.....but if it's a png inside a set then the "move wrong named set to backup" doesn't play a role since we then talk about a "rom" and not about a "set". Anyway, I will have a look

3) nope, backup root stays global for now. I put it on my wish list that there should be an option to switch between global and local ones......but don't count on it in the near future.
