For certain themes, it is sometimes useful to have the system media reference in the gamelist.xml.

ARRM creates a text file folder_lines_to_add_in_gamelist_and_arrm_gamelist_for_system_name.txt in the selected system folder. This file contains the media references for the selected system. The content will need to be added manually to the gamelist.xml and gamelist_ARRM.xml files

• To create this file folder_lines_to_add_in_gamelist_and_arrm_gamelist_for_system_name.txt, you must check the Add system media to gamelist checkbox, which is located in the Gamelist tab of ARRM.

• ARRM searches for system media files in the theme-builder folder located in the system folder. These media files can be generated via the Download Systems Media on SS and Download Systems Media on HFSDB buttons located in the Selected Systems tab (see wiki [[arrm_relooked_en:get_system_media_en_relooked|Getting System Media]). ARRM will retrieve, among others, the following media:

• image : %system%_image ou %system%_photo.png or %system%_photo.jpg or %system%_hardware_console_1.png or %system%_hardware_console_1.jpg
• marquee : %system%_marquee.png or %system%_logo_1.png or %system%_logo_1.jpg
• screenshot : %system%_screenshot.png or %system%_screenshot.jpg
• fanart : %system%_fanart or %system%_wallpaper_1.png or %system%_wallpaper_1.jpg
• video : %system%_video.mp4 or %system%_video_advertisement_1.mp4
• boxart : %system%_boxart.png or %system%_BoitierConsole3D.png or %system%_BoitierConsole3D.jpg
• wheel : %system%_wheel or %system%_logo_1.png or %system%_logo_1.jpg

• Save the gamelist using the Create gamelist.xml for all ROMs button. During this action, ARRM will check the theme-builder directory for the images to be included in the folder_lines_to_add_in_gamelist_and_arrm_gamelist_for_system_name.txt file.

After the gamelist has been created, the folder_lines_to_add_in_gamelist_and_arrm_gamelist_for_system_name.txt file will open in your text editor. It will have this form (with more or less media):

 <folder>
 <path>./</path>
 <image>./media/theme-builder/atari5200-image.png</image>
 <marquee>./media/theme-builder/atari5200-marquee.png</marquee>
 <screenshot>./media/theme-builder/atari5200-screenshot.png</screenshot>
 <fanart>./media/theme-builder/atari5200-fanart.png</fanart>
 <video>./media/theme-builder/atari5200-video.png</video>
 <boxart>./media/theme-builder/atari5200-boxart.png</boxart>
 </folder>

• Copy the contents of this file into the gamelist.xml files and gamelist_arrm.xml at the end of the file, just before the </gamelist> tag:

 ...
 <manual>./media/manuals/Zone Ranger (USA).pdf</manual>
 <boxback>./media/boxbacks/Ranger Zone (USA)-boxback.png</boxback>
 </game>
