Easy way to add manuals

[Catlin]

I have thousands of games launchbox now but cant seem to find a quick way or scraper to automagically add manuals and have to do it manually 1 by 1 which is a monumental task, is there some easy method I am not seeing or

If they're named correctly you can just drop them into a platform folder inside the manuals folder.

If they're named similarly you can try a program named Fatmatch to rename them as your romset.

If you have an EmuMovies account

• Select the Platform you want to add manuals to
• Click on one of the games in that platform then press Ctrl+A to select all games
• Click Tools, Download, Update Metadata and Media for Selected Games...
• Follow through the prompts until you get to Would you like to download media from EmuMovies?
• In that view, scroll down and check the option Manual
• Kepp going through the prompts until you get to Ready to Download
• Click Finish

Note, not all platforms will have manuals available.

For some reason this isn’t working for me. I have an Emu account but there is no manuals option in the checklist.

If you downloaded manuals through LB you should be able to right click a game and go to "Media" and you will see a "View Manuals" option
