Thumbnail Boxart not appearing (RPi 4b) (Stable 3.1 aarch64) #1394

Closed ghost closed 3 years ago

ghost commented 3 years ago

Raspberry Pi 4 B (2 Gb) Lakka OS version: Lakka-RPi4.aarch64-3.1

In past versions as well, despite the thumbnail boxart being in the correct folder and having the correct playlist label name it does not appear. the image file is in a .png format. The 2 images are "Pocky & Rocky.png" and "Pocky & Rocky 2.png" both are in the correct file path.

File path: LAKKA_DISK//thumbnails/Nintendo - Super Nintendo Entertainment System/Named_Boxarts

Playlist entery below: { "path": "/storage/roms/Snes/Pocky & Rocky.zip#Pocky & Rocky.smc", "label": "Pocky & Rocky", "core_path": "DETECT", "core_name": "DETECT", "crc32": "00000000|crc", "db_name": "Nintendo - Super Nintendo Entertainment System.lpl" }, { "path": "/storage/roms/Snes/Pocky & Rocky 2.zip#Pocky & Rocky 2.smc", "label": "Pocky & Rocky 2", "core_path": "DETECT", "core_name": "DETECT", "crc32": "00000000|crc", "db_name": "Nintendo - Super Nintendo Entertainment System.lpl" },

I suspect this is a Retroarch bug. Are you able to test on any other platform?

I did some research and according to a post that some characters like &*/:<>?|` are replaced with an underscore. So I made a duplicate of that thumbnail that replaced the & with a underscore and that worked. They should mention this somewhere in documentation.
