Retrofrogg Posted December 23, 2017 Posted December 23, 2017 (edited) How do I get LB to populate the platform metadata? I added the NES, but none of the metadata fields (developer, manufacturer, CPU, etc) are populated - all are empty! Edited December 23, 2017 by Dan
dragon57 Posted December 23, 2017 Posted December 23, 2017 Have you tried the choice highlighted in the pic below?
Retrofrogg Posted December 23, 2017 Author Posted December 23, 2017 @dragon57 - doesn't that option just let you download metadata and media for the games?
dragon57 Posted December 23, 2017 Posted December 23, 2017 Ah! You are referring to this information? Sorry, I should have read slower. I thought you were referring to the game metadata.
Retrofrogg Posted December 23, 2017 Author Posted December 23, 2017 Yes, that information! How do I populate that?
spycat Posted December 23, 2017 Posted December 23, 2017 Do your platform names match those of the LaunchBox database? As far as I'm aware, if your platform names do not match those in the database then the data concerning Release Date, Developer, Manufacturer, CPU etc. as well as Notes will not be scraped. This is different to game data where your platform names can be different as long as you scrape using the database platform names. Mind you I might be wrong on this.
