Downloading Media in General and Video Quality

[Lahrs]

When it comes to downloading video media from Emumovies, if I select only the best quality video, and only a mid or low-quality video is available, Gameboy for example, does that mean no video is downloaded? If I select all three qualities, are all three downloaded (if available), or only the highest quality available?

Can I set the file types I want or do I have to set it each time? When later matching a game to a database, sometimes the cover image will be checked, other times it will not, even though available. It seems to be random if certain available media is checked or not, can I set it to always check or leave media selection blank?

Depends on what window you're in. If you're in the Download Metadata and Media wizard then selecting multiple qualities will only grab the highest quality available. This is because until we start scanning each item we don't really know what is there and so just grab you the best of the ones you selected. If you're downloading from the Add/Edit Game window that is scanned already FOR that game and we're saying they DEFINATELY have all of these and so we will grab each one you pick.

Whatever you had checked last import should be checked in the next one. There is no way to apply any other logic to those being checked by default.
