select-save is a small SDL app designed to run alongside RetroArch on a device like an RG351M to provide the following features:
- Visually select a save state or save file for many games, captured by study-sync
- Preview each save with a screenshot
- Extract and display metadata from each save
- Copy the selected save file into place next to its game
Here's an example extraction configuration to display three pieces of metadata for .srm files: the time played clock (format: mm:ss, where mm is the value at byte 0x263 and ss is the value at 0x264; with the latter being two digits long padded by 0), the amount of gold (formatted as an integer where the three bytes 0x260, 0x261, and 0x261 are read into a 24-bit number), and the number of steps (calculated similarly to gold).
{
"srm": [
"Time: {0x263}:{0x264:02}",
"Gold: {0x260~0x262}",
"Steps: {0x266~0x268}"
]
}which looks like this:
