Enhancement - Group title IDs and Cache Data

Open Viper911 opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Any chance you could have the view group title IDs together as well as show duplicates?

Also would be good to cache the data to disk so it doesn't have to scan the drive each time, then have a scan button that kicks off a refresh when needed.

Group title id's can already be done basically if you sort by titleid by clicking the header but duplicate check would be great

When I refered to grouping, I was thinking more of an "install package view". So what you would see is all the game packages at the Level 1 view, then if you expand out you would see the updates and DLCs. So the primary view is just the list of base games.

Once you had that, it would be great to them be able to pick that package hyarchy and it would install it on the PS4 in the right order, and if already instlled detect only what new componets are needed or even a different screen that shows what new files are avaiable to be installed for existing insteed games. If you have ever used the Switch/Tinfoil app, same concept.

Getting updates in the right order programatically isn't always as easy as it sounds as there arent that many hints into what the correct order is, so that might complicate things a bit. Could maybe have the user manually order them if the program is confused. Does the RPI API support asking for individual pkg install state or is it just by productid?
