Feature Request - 2 Additional Features to the Image\Metadata Puller

1. An option to rescan All Games or Individual platforms for images and metadata. This would only pull new stuff or missing stuff. This would speed up the process if you have alot games missing info and the online game database has been update with the stuff your missing. 2. Before Downloading images check to see if they are already in the image directory. basically if you're forced to delete a entire platform of games you and reimport them you won't have to redownload all the images again. This would only work if you hadn't done a clean job on the image directory. This may be harder to implement depending on how LaunchBox does its unique identifiers on the image folders.

This has also been planned for a while now. The UI changes are currently taking up a lot of time for one developer. Better library tools have been talked about at length between Jason and myself. He's just one person however, and things move a bit slower because of it.
