Filter Games by Emulator

📋 Summary

Add the ability to filter games based on the emulator they are assigned to within LaunchBox.

❗ Problem

There is currently no way to easily view or manage games by emulator:

• Users cannot filter games assigned to a specific emulator

• Difficult to identify which games use a particular emulator or emulator version

• No visibility in audit tools for emulator usage

• Managing multi-emulator setups becomes cumbersome

This makes troubleshooting and library organization more difficult.

💡 Proposal

Introduce emulator based filtering and auditing:

• Add Emulator as a filter option in the game list

• Allow users to:

  • View all games assigned to a specific emulator

  • Filter by emulator version where applicable

• Include emulator data in the Audit tool/report, such as:

  • Emulator name

  • Associated platform

  • Game count per emulator

🧩 Use Cases

• A user wants to see all games using SNES9x

• A user audits which titles are using a specific version of MAME or DOSBox-X

• A user migrates games from one emulator to another

• A user troubleshoots emulator specific issues across their library

📦 Benefits

• Improves visibility and control over emulator assignments

• Simplifies troubleshooting and cleanup workflows

• Enhances support for multi-emulator setups

• Makes audit tools more powerful and informative

⚠️ Considerations

• Should account for platform level vs game level emulator assignments

• UI should remain simple when handling multiple emulator versions

• Needs to integrate cleanly with existing filter and audit systems
