Problems found with current build:

PAL GAMES
F1 world grand prix 2 - missing coverart + synopsis + additional info vmu etc
Jimmy whites 2 cueball - says "-3 blocks" but in the document its only a "-" (havent found that yet)
Shenmue 2 - Says "2 blocks" and thats odd becouse the document states "22"
Shenmue - says "8 blocks" but the PAL section in document is blank "" and the ntsc shenmue says "80" (i am getting the PAL cover, its the "dubbed / free region" version Gdi from the forums)
Uefa striker - missing coverart + synopsis + additional info vmu etc

NTSC-U
F355 Challange - missing synopsis + additional info vmu etc
NHL 2K2 - says "1block" when it says "186" in the document (everything else seems right)
Nightmare creatures 2 - missing coverart + synopsis + additional info vmu etc
Rayman 2 - missing coverart + synopsis + additional info vmu etc
Southpark Chefs Luv Shack - says "-3 blocks" but the document says "-" (same as above jimmys... guess its better to leave blanks?)
Super runabout - missing coverart + synopsis + additional info vmu etc
Test Drive Le Mans - Says "3blocks" should be "31 blocks" as in the document

Need to say , the speed of this menu is insane :D Very quick booting even with 100gb games , impressive.
I believe most of these should be fixed. F355 on the GitHub build may not be fixed but it's already fixed in the code. I just can't remember if I uploaded the build before or after I fixed it

Can't finish the new image to test with gd menu manager. I get this error msg:
IMG_20210709_175153.jpg
Tries several times , ex last time I tried to build the SD card it passed Cannon Spike without issues, before now it was the same problem with f355 :(

Hold your horses, changed the SD card from SanDisk to a Transcend , don't know if that made any difference but now it seemed to work. On to testing :)

There was an old hack to make 3 games work but now that the metadata db has been fleshed out and corrected those hacks were doing the opposite.

So I removed the hack and they work properly now, cleaner too.

It appears some people have been asking for something that makes sense to me.

So tomorrow there should be a release that saves to vmu and holds your preferred theme + region + aspect
