Media limiter to HD space
BEHAT SCRIPT:
Feature:
In order to minimize the midia space on HD
As a LaunchBox user
I need to be able to set a limit on media download
Scenario #1:
Given that I have no media downloaded for a certain game
And I have set the limit of screenshot gameplay to 2
And I have set the limit of all other midia to 0
When I run “Download Media“
Then I should get:
“““
The first 2 gameplay screenshots from the prioritized source (emumovies or launchboxdb)
”””
Scenario #2:
Given that I have all media downloaded for a certain game
And I have set the limit of screenshot gameplay to 2
And I have set the limit of all other types media to 0
When I run “Download Media“
Then I should get:
“““
All types of media except screenshot gameplay removed from the Hard Disk
The first 2 gameplay screenshots from the prioritized source (emumovies or launchboxdb)
”””
Brief explanation
I’m using a 4 terabyte HD and it’s already over the top with only my launchbox build, and I feel like I have too much visual information on my games that I really don’t need/use, so I’d like to propose a feature that would limit the number of screenshots and the type of screenshot (gameplay, title screen, scoreboard) launchbox is allowed to download, and also, I wish that would be available to be applied to my current library, cleaning the already downloaded media files.
For instance I could set the limit of screenshots for gameplay to 2 and title screen to 1 and the others to zero, so it would only download 2 screenshots of gameplay and 1 of title screen in case I didn’t have any or delete the last screenshots in case I have more than the limit that was set. And if the number is 0 then the midia gets wiped out completely.
Thank you.

As far as setting a “0” limit goes you can already do that by simply unchecking the media type you do not want to download. This can vary by platform.
