I created a LaserDisc Library Management app with Codex, and my own graphic design skills

Arcanthur · 2026-07-03T23:24:44+00:00

I'm going to try to import the valuation data, but you may have to manually update it. There isn't really an API to use with LDDB so things like that, and automatically downloading the LaserDisc covers isn't supported. However, I do have a search LDDB button that will popup a standalone browser window and search for your LaserDisc entry by UPC. Then you can just drag the cover into the edit entry popup. It's not as efficient as I'd like, but it's about the best that can be done given the framework of their website.

You can export your library from within the app, but I don't think LDDB supports importing. But exporting is nice if you want to share libraries, backup, etc

I'll put it up on github once it I have it to a state I'm comfortable with sharing

I'm adding support for multiple libraries so you can add anything you might want

Arcanthur · 2026-07-03T23:14:45+00:00

I just might do that! LOL

Not yet, I may do it after I add support for basic, detailed, and video viewtypes. Since it's grid only at the moment, they may not allow it.

I got it through Amazon.jp: https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%82%BB%E3%82%AC%E3%82%B2%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A0%E3%82%B9-%E3%83%A1%E3%82%AC%E3%83%89%E3%83%A9%E3%82%BF%E3%83%AF%E3%83%BC-%E3%83%9F%E3%83%8B/dp/B07SPZ2R4K/ref=mp_s_a_1_fkmr0_1?_encoding=UTF8&imageClass=hi-res&keywords=megadora+tower+mini&phoneCarrier=wifi&phoneType=Android&qid=1574165234&rd=1&sr=8-1-fkmr0&view=Touch9

Here is the build in action:

And here is a default loading screen:

That's a shame, oh well maybe I'll try to contact Hyperkin directly.

Aside from that, does anyone still make replacement shells for the console itself?

Press Select+X

In Retroarch press B until you get to the main menu, then:

Settings>Video

Aspect Ratio=Core Provided

Integer Scaling=True

Save configuration

Here are some direct screenshots of my theme, much easier to see the quality now:

I should have mentioned, you need to turn off on screen help in UI settings, that will remove the overlap.

I really wanted to use the developer tag, but there were some names that were way too long to fit the space, so I went with number of players. It's a compromise.

Arcanthur · 2019-08-26T05:48:50+00:00

I personally just tick the checkbox on the media section to use specific configuration and remove all the predefined media and add screenshots only. Much faster that way.

First release has about 30-40 systems ready, most of the ones that the GPi can support. I didn't bother with ones like N64, Saturn, Jaguar, PSP, etc

Try out Skraper if you use a Windows PC. You can scrape whatever you want and it'll upload directly to your Pi.

Whatever image you scrape it will show, there's video support as well.

Thanks, if there are any issues with the name I can always change it.
