New Features

Console Mode

Look ma', I'm on TV! The new console interface is designed for big screens and easy navigation with a controller or remote. It features a grid layout, large icons, and a simplified menu structure to enhance your gaming experience from the comfort of your couch. Launch it from the navigation bar or navigate directly to /console.

Global EmulatorJS Config

The config.yml file now accepts a new emulatorjs section that allows you to set custom, per-core options and controls. Setting debug: true will print a list of available options for the current emulator core to the browser console, which you can then set in the settings block. The control block allows you to set a custom control mapping for each core. Both settings and control accept a default "core", who's value will be applied to all cores.

Incremental RetroAchievements Sync

A new scheduled task has been added to sync RetroAchievements progress for all users on a recurring basis. Enable the task by setting ENABLE_SCHEDULED_RETROACHIEVEMENTS_PROGRESS_SYNC=true in your environment variables. By default the task runs nightly, but you can customize that using the SCHEDULED_RETROACHIEVEMENTS_PROGRESS_SYNC_CRON variable.

#2325

WebP Image Task

Another scheduled task has been added to convert all uploaded images to the modern .webp format. WebP images are 5-10x smaller then JPG/PNG images with no loss of quality, leading to faster load times for cover art in galleries. Enable the task by setting ENABLE_SCHEDULED_CONVERT_IMAGES_TO_WEBP=true in your environment variables. By default the task runs nightly, but you can customize that using the SCHEDULED_CONVERT_IMAGES_TO_WEBP_CRON variable.
