RetroArch Database

RetroArch incoporates a ROM scanning system to automatically produce playlists. Each ROM that is scanned by the playlist generator is checked against a database of ROMs that are known to be good copies.

Contents

  • cht Cheats to various games
  • cursors Provides methods in order to query the playlists
  • dat Customized DAT files, maintained by the libretro team
  • metadat Different metadata and third-party DATs available to the systems
  • rdb The compiled RetroArch database files
  • scripts Various scripts that are used to maintain the database files

Sources

Generally, RetroArch's scanner is configured for ROMs that have been validated by No-Intro or Redump DAT files but many other source databases are also in use.

Building

To build a complete set of RDB files for RetroArch or to generate a single RDB file, see RetroArch/libretro-db/README.md.

Alternatively, you can run the following command to rebuild all the RDBs locally:

make build

Testing

Make sure filenames are Windows file system compatible, and are not too long (eg. ecryptfs limits filenames to 143 characters)...

find -exec basename '{}' ';' | egrep '^.{144,}$'

Integrations

There are a few tools out there that allow integration with libretro's database.
