Can't make MuOS to display box art after patching to Silly Goose

Box art was shown on Canada Goose but after patching it’s not present even though it exists in info/catalogue folder.

Also, in Storage Options I can’t migrate Metadata Catalogue to SD1. The script runs but the setting stays at SD2. It seems that the script is able to copy data but not to delete it.
So as a result I have the same files in both catalogues, but even then it won’t display anything for any console.

Oh there’s a fix: No Artwork Issue

Even though it works, I have noticed an issue with roms folder name parsing. When I set roms/<system> to match the names in info/catalogue/<system> those consoles that have “ - “ in their names like NES, SNES and Genesis won’t have any box art attached to them and muOS won’t be able to tell which emulator to use.

Thanks for your useful information.
After applying the fix, I was able to resolve most of the box art issues.
However, the box art in the following WonderSwan folder still won’t display.

info/catalogue/Bandai WonderSwan-Color

Has anyone been able to get it to display as well?

did you download the wonderswan core

then assign that core to the directory

Thanks for your kind reply.

After following those steps and launching one game,
I noticed that the correct box art directory was created.
The box art was not displayed because the directory name was incorrect.

Incorrect : info/catalogue/Bandai WonderSwan-Color
Correct : info/catalogue/Bandai WonderSwan Color

After migrating to Silly Goose, we users will need to change the directory names of our box art.
FC, SNES, MSX, WonderSwan, etc.

I am having the same problem.
I installed the patch and the art is working for everything that DOES NOT have “-” in their names.

Did you manage to fix for systems with “-”?

Yes, use GBC, GBA, NES, SNES, Genesis, etc. for system names in roms folder.
They don’t have to match metadata names.
