How to add boxart, screenshots, and videos to my platforms and games myself?

There could be an issue with duplicate games, but if you close LaunchBox, and then put your images in the right folders and name them correctly, then they should show up for that game the next time you run the app without issues. We know that works properly because if it didn't we'd have everyone all up in arms. You may need to go to Tools > Refresh Images in order to get them to show up if you add them into the folders manually.

For what it is worth, I do this all the time with no issues. I add images to the filesystem and by using the Edit function for single games. I can't think of anything that would keep this from working unless the names of the images just didn't match the rom name. Even then, the name doesn't have to be exact. LB has the ability to parse some image names and give you a good result.
