The WebUI's Games page scrapes box art, screenshots, title screens and logos from
libretro's thumbnail server into /app0/library/<system>/<kind>/<game>, one store for
every frontend: RetroArch's thumbnail lookup asks it first (patch 0114, which also
gives thumbnails_directory "default" its folder: it was empty and stopped every
lookup), EmulationStation has it as its media folder and fills its game lists from
its .meta files, the Games page shows it, a future frontend calls ps5_library_media.
- src/scraper.{h,cpp}: jobs saved and resumed without repeats, exact names, exact
titles tags aside, ranked candidates for the user, fill-missing by default; PS5 mode
on the daemon (runs with the page and the title closed) and PC mode through
webui/ps5-media-helper.py (the console identifies; the bytes pass through the PC).
- The page: the method asked first and remembered on the console, sources and every
media type described, version tags on each card. ScreenScraper, LaunchBox and
EmuMovies are listed as coming (ScreenScraper's developer credentials requested).
- The daemon's HTTP is libcurl over mbedTLS 3.6 with the shipped CA bundle (Sony's SSL
failed every handshake from the payload, 0x8095f00c); its updater uses it too.
- The shared library: one path a game read from outside the title (14 games were
listed twice), a disc's listed .bin dropped beside its .cue.
- The daemon: workers on 1 MiB stacks (a 64 KiB frame overflowed one), stale hand-over
on transfers in flight rather than idle keep-alive connections, pid in its log.
Evidence: evidence/scraper-libretro (base PS5 13.40): every system in 148 s (520
complete, 28 partly, 181 kept, 61 ambiguous, 234 unmatched); cached runs fetch
nothing; HTTPS through curl; PC mode with the helper killed: 90 images each sent once;
a job finished with the title closed; 1,024 games, 0 duplicates. Not seen live:
RetroArch and ES-DE drawing the media (owner to look), updates through the daemon.
Command: build/tmp/scraper/live.py; tools/verify.sh: all five PASS.
