Multi Disc Game Scanning in Playlists

bbglee opened this issue · 4 comments

When I scan a directory with a multi disc PlayStation .bin/.cue game it populates the playlist with each disc listed separately.

Is it possible to display a multi disc game as a single playlist entry? Scanning a .m3u file, which lists each .cue, doesn't work.

I got a workaround. Manually edit the playlist .csv to point to the .m3u and then there will be a single playlist entry for the multi disc game, which defaults to disc 1. Load the game and use Disc Control to switch discs. Save files and thumbnails must match the .m3u filename.

It's a nice feature request. We should do it I think.

Adding .m3u should be fairly easy.

I have to find a good idea for not listing the .cue when there is a corresponding .m3u though.

A form of this is added via #521, however for some reason when I applied the same logic to .m3u files it wasn't finding the files.

And #521 now addresses this with additional improvements for multidisc games using bin/cue files.
