[Extra Metadata Loader] Manual batch process for Google Image Search logo finding
Extension name
Extra Metadata Loader
Feature Description
Unlike Steam or SteamGridDB, GIS is limited to manual use as a source for logos, which makes sense: it's a scraper and therefore any automated process would run the risk of being tagged as a bot and blocked. However, because of this, there's currently no way to sequentially run the GIS process on multiple different games.
Ideally, this would work similarly to the current "Google Image Search" context-menu option, with the only difference being that only after completely closing the dialog box for one game, the next one in the sequence would immediately open. This would make adding logos for games that don't have them on the other two supported metadata sources easier without actually risking being fast enough to get blocked.
As per discussion on discord.
