natemac00 Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 What’s the best way to resume a rom import that needed to be canceled mid-stream? I’ve been transferring my external drive from work and Home so I can continue to do all the initial imports, but looking at the MAME Import, I don’t believe it will be complete by the time I leave from work and would like to continue once I get home. There’s also many other reason you would need to restart an import...
Lordmonkus Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 There is "resume" option but if you cancel and import I believe there is an option to keep what was imported and then later on you can re-import the full set again and it should skip over what was already there.
natemac00 Posted August 4, 2017 Author Posted August 4, 2017 Okay, that's what I did earlier. though I couldn't confirm it "skipped" over the roms that were already imported.
Lordmonkus Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 By default it should skip already imported games, you can force it to import duplicates though if you wanted to for any reason.
natemac00 Posted August 4, 2017 Author Posted August 4, 2017 Just now, lordmonkus said: By default it should skip already imported games, you can force it to import duplicates though if you wanted to for any reason. ...and this is by choosing "import" not "Download Metadata and Media", correct?
