Features
Game Import / Scraping
- scan your rom folders and import games to local database
- scrape artwork and game info from various online sources
- import local available data (descriptions, artwork, videos)
- results from all different scrape processes can be mixed together
- two scraping modes: Automatic: Accurate, Interactive: Select Matches
- create local nfo files while scraping (option to reimport local files without scraping)
- create scrape result files (missing artwork, missing descriptions, possible mismatches)
- import options dialog: asks for most important import options on every game import
Game Browsing
- filter games by console, genre, year, publisher and first character
- automatic video playback in video window
- game details page
- different views of the main window
- configurable image placing (choose filetype for background, gamelist, etc.)
- fully skinnable UI: already skinned for Estuary, Confluence, Night and Carmichael (other skins will use the Estuary look and feel)
- dedicated MAME views to display cabinets and marquees
Game Launching
- launch roms and standalone games in solo or non-solo mode (solo mode quits XBMC and relaunches it when you quit the emulator)
- supports direct launching of savestate files
- detect games in zip and 7z archives and ask user which game to load
- store game launch count in db
- restore viewstate when returning to RCB
RCB scrapes data from these sites (don't forget to visit, register and contribute!):
RCB also imports game information from some file formats that you need to download first. See the wiki for more information.
