I agree with everything you said there nes.
Unfortunately, I am currently unable to edit your SNES emulator so that I can control where the videos are at, among a few other things (at least, I haven't figured out how to do it yet). I have spent a few months making the synopsis as well, which only works on the XPORT emus currently, so I do like seeing the hard work I put into that.
I'm not asking for the ability to use the synopsis in ZSNESXBox, although that would be EXTREMELY cool. I would just like to have more control over where the emu looks for certain things. Even if it's not an option you could change in the emu itself, it would be nice to be able to edit some .ini file or something so I can have ZSNES point to F:\Media\SNES\Movies where I have all of the SNES movies now. This is the format I use for all of my media for all systems now (The only exception being the artwork for ZSNES, which I'm not worried about because 1/2 GB doubled doesn't worry me at all). I just don't want to have to host 1,086 SNES videos in two different places. That is 11.6 GB that I'd have to put on my box twice.
No disrespect meant to ya, since before Madmab has been updating everything your emu was always my favorite. I just get a little frustrated when I see you do come back in here and you do answer some people but you never seem to answer my posts. Probably just an oversight. I know you're a busy guy and that this stuff isn't on your priority list anymore.
Great emu you got there.
