      My microSD card contains a lot of roms in different folders including the cover arts and video clips from the subfolders.

      I bought myself a 4TB USB HDD and moved all files and sub-folders from the rom folder from the MicroSD card to the USB HDD.

      After I rebooted the Pi, the cover arts and video clips for the games I have are gone. Only the generic listing of games for each console is listed.

      Do I need to edit each gameslist.xml to point to the USB HDD or is recalbox have a bug to support cover art images and video clips from USB HDD?

          That seems like a lot of work. Any good editors I can use to speed this up?

            i now have edited the emulationstation's es_systems.cfg in share to the exact path from the ssd, but it not worked. that would be awesome, if such a easy way exists 😉
