📋 Summary
Add the ability to filter games based on the emulator they are assigned to within LaunchBox.
❗ Problem
There is currently no way to easily view or manage games by emulator:
Users cannot filter games assigned to a specific emulator
Difficult to identify which games use a particular emulator or emulator version
No visibility in audit tools for emulator usage
Managing multi-emulator setups becomes cumbersome
This makes troubleshooting and library organization more difficult.
💡 Proposal
Introduce emulator based filtering and auditing:
Add Emulator as a filter option in the game list
Allow users to:
View all games assigned to a specific emulator
Filter by emulator version where applicable
Include emulator data in the Audit tool/report, such as:
Emulator name
Associated platform
Game count per emulator
🧩 Use Cases
A user wants to see all games using SNES9x
A user audits which titles are using a specific version of MAME or DOSBox-X
A user migrates games from one emulator to another
A user troubleshoots emulator specific issues across their library
📦 Benefits
Improves visibility and control over emulator assignments
Simplifies troubleshooting and cleanup workflows
Enhances support for multi-emulator setups
Makes audit tools more powerful and informative
⚠️ Considerations
Should account for platform level vs game level emulator assignments
UI should remain simple when handling multiple emulator versions
Needs to integrate cleanly with existing filter and audit systems
