Will MythGame understand which emulators/roms are available for each
frontend? My main frontend is linux, but i also have a OSX frontend
that i use often enough. It brings up an interesting situation in
that some roms can be used on both frontends, like mame or GameBoy,
while others will only work on one or the other frontend. It would
make sense to only display the roms that are playable on the
particular frontend you are using at the time.
Not sure how this would work behind the scenes. Perhaps the emulator
type could be used? or is there an easier way to link the emulator/
roms to the frontend. It would be overkill to duplicate the rom info
in the database, i'm thinkin. Maybe just an extra field that
coordinates things.
Thanks for all the coding. Looking forward to testing the commit that
adds meta data collection capabilities.
