Hey there,

I wanted to use some of my days off to update metadata and media from some of my platforms and I encountered a weird issue with emumovies:

Basically, when selecting games inn my platform (e.g. SNES) and choosing "Yes, but do not replace any existing fields or media (recommended)", emumovies takes a very lonng time to seach for and download new media files. I'm talking about leaving the PC on over night and in the morning it's not finished.

It's roughly 1.700 games, and I'm only updating Manuals, Music and Video files, so nothing crazy. The problem is only with emumovies, the media from LB Database is downloaded very quickly.

When deleting the platform and reimporting the games, or when choosing to replace all metadata and media, then this bug does NOT occur. It's only there when trying to update and choosing "Yes, but do not replace any existing fields or media (recommended)".

What's I'm seeing on the progress bar on the top of Lauchbox is that emumovies keeps searching for files, then downloads a few (1-3 files) and then searches again. This process keeps repeating, making the whole process take unbearably long.

Any idea why this is happening?

What you are seeing is often related to the api server for emumovies having issues. Have you checked on their forums for any related post? You can also use their EmuMovies Sync tool to check for related issues so you can at least know where the issue lies.

I'm not so sure. If it were an api server issue, then the issue would also occur when importing a fresh set of roms. I believe that the issue is that Emumovies tries to find out if a file already exists before downloading and that process just isn't optimized. But that's just a guess. I really don't know what's going on.

I've beenn trying again and again these last few days, and the issue persists. Can someone check if they see the same behavior? To reproduce:

1. Select a fairly large set of roms (around 2000), that have artwork scraped.

2. Tools --> downoad --> update metadata and media --> Choose scraping from emumovies (scraping from LB database can be skipped, since this works fine). I found that the video downloads work for some reason, so choose something other than that, like Manuals or Screenshots.

3. select "Yes, but do not replace any existing fields or media (recommended)".

Please report back if you experience the same issue as me 😃

EDIT:

This is part of my most recennt log by the way:

I performed your steps here against my SNES collection and everything proceeded as normal here.

Thanks for checking. Do you have any idea how I can troubleshoot this issue? I'll try installing Launchbox on a different PC and test it.

By process of elimination, I think what may be happening is (at least for SNES):
My guess... Dragon, you don't have any of those 'double games'.  Sirius, you do.

Examples:

  • Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World
  • Exertainment Mountain Bike Rally + Speed Racer
  • Super Tetris 2 + Bombliss Genteiban
  • Super Tetris 2 + Bombliss

The fix, delete these games you'll never play [using these particular ROMs]. B|

Hey, thank you so much for suggesting a solution. I will try this tomorrow.

But to be honest, I have no idea why these double games would cause such a weird issue. Could you explain why they cause this problem?

Also, I really want to keep these games (I can always reimport them, I know.)

I think it might be the + sign in the name.  Sugoro Quest++: Dicenics might be another game that'll cause issues.

Do you not have those games in their single form?  e.g. Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario World
Or are you being a hoarder?  ;)

Well, I guess I am a little bit of a hoarder, but not the worst kind, I swear. I don't keep EVERYTHING =). The reason I keep these roms is that I consider them separate releases. My approach to 1g1r is to have 1 rom of each cartridge that was released. So, since there was Super Mario All-Stars, Super Mario World and Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World, I'll keep all 3.

OK, I'll give this a shot, but I still don't quite get why a few games with "+" in their names would hold up the entire scraping process. And also why this issue does not happen when replacing all metadata and media.
