NEW FEATURES

DUAL SCREEN LAUNCHER NOW WORKS COMPLETELY! NO HACKINESS! HOME BUTTONS WORK ON BOTH SCREENS!!
-
MainActivity and ExternalDisplayActivity have been rebuilt from the ground up to only have one source of truth. No more desynced or mismatching!
-
Status bar on info screen is now pill shaped - removing the white status bar at the top
-
Screenscraper metadata scraping for Retro roms - no rate limits, key, etc
-
Better support for very large libraries
-
Platforms such as AetherSX2/NetherSX2/Dolphin now launch ROMs correctly
-
Allowing you to delete (hide) game icons completely from the database
-
Changes to first-time setup - allowing you to fetch artwork & metadata in background, set your screenscraper login, toggle for deep folder scanning, better visual feedback for whats going on
-
Better scraping reliability - games are first scraped using its name. If a valid game can't be found with that name it resorts to hash searching the ROM. Hashing is much slower so using this for every game (especially big ROMs like Switch) would be very slow and inefficient. I think this is a nice middleground

During Betas, there are lots of changes behind the scenes to the database. This requires us to rebuild the database if one already exists - which may lead to some loss of customisation & configuration
