LaunchBox image/video filename matching algorithm

Recommended Posts

I am working on some tools that involve transferring games, images, videos, manuals, etc. between different installations of LaunchBox. To get this right, I need to know how image/video/manual/etc. files are matched to the games. Is this algorithm public knowledge? @Jason Carr Is it possible to see some pseudo-code (or actual C# code) for this?

The main questions are: what are the string transformations performed on the game title in order to match with image/video filenames, and how do the regional sub-folders work? For example:

Images\Sega Saturn\Box - Front

vs.

 Images\Sega Saturn\Box - Front\North America

 

Any help would be appreciated.
