Can you provide more information about what platforms you've tried, and maybe list a few games that we can test off of, including the file names.

Hi, I have already solved the problem. The problem was that, in the Android version, the title database was not updated. The titles I wanted to add were not available locally, but they were online. What I did was go to the 'SD/Launchbox/Metadata' path, there I found the 'Nintendo Switch.xml' file. I deleted that file so that, when restarting, the system would regenerate it and download it again. That's how the titles finally appeared.

I thought that the title searches were done online, but it seems that it does them offline with the files I mentioned above.

 

Buenas tardes, ya logré solucionar el problema. El inconveniente era que, en la versión de Android, la base de datos de títulos no estaba actualizada. Los títulos que quería agregar no estaban disponibles localmente, pero sí estaban en línea. Lo que hice fue ir a la ruta 'SD/Launchbox/Metadata', ahí encontré el archivo 'Nintendo Switch.xml'. Eliminé ese archivo para que, al reiniciar, el sistema lo regenerara y descargara de nuevo. Así fue como finalmente aparecieron los títulos.

yo creía que las búsquedas de los títulos los hacia online, pero al parecer los hace offline con los archivos que mencione anteriormente

Correct, it works that way on both the Windows version and Android version. Essentially, parts of the database are downloaded locally, allowing users that are offline to still import their games and receive metadata.

In your specific case, the Nintendo Switch metadata file should be updated to include all changes to the database the next time you try and import a game into your library.
