Description
                                                                                                                                                                             
This extension is intended as a library mantaining tool and to make it easier to handle game media in your library.
It works with the currently available game media options: Covers images, background images and icons.

It currently has the following functions:

1. Missing Media: Detect games that are missing any of the media available
2. Check optimized images: Detects if games have images that are too large and will affect performance in Playnite
3. Image aspect ratio: Enter an arbitrary aspect ratio and detect if the selected media is different in the processed games
4. Image resolution: Enter an arbitrary resolution and detect if the selected media is different in the processed games
5. Image extension: Enter an arbitrary file extension and detect if the selected games match
6. Image size: Enter an arbitrary size in kb and detect if the selected games are bigger than that
7. Open metadata folder: Open Metadata folder of selected games
8. Missing media statistics: Shows you information of number of games with missing media

After processing, you'll see a dialogue window with the results and games will have a tag added if necessary for easy filtering with Playnite to afterwards manage the games.

Installation
                                                                                                                                                                             
Option A. Download from the Addons browser in Playnite.
Option B. Click here to start the install process

Usage
                                                                                                                                                                             

1. Open the extensions submenu and select a function in "Game Media Tools"

If you want to delete the added tags from the games you can run the extension again and write the same settings or you can delete the tags using Playnite's Library Manager (ctrl+W)

I like your plugin!
I wished to do a similar plugin for traitement by lot ans more.

The interface reminds me of the DOS programs.
But it's often fewer friendly interface.

Would you rewrite the plugin in C# instead?
The interface will be better and you will can learn this language too.
In addition, it will can have a list with game that respond at criters and will can edit game directly (in calling game edit interface instead of use tags).
I have some ideas in using C# (less limited that scripting).

Otherwise, more features:

• delete icon (for example use store banner when missing)
  
• Search similar game name for create a series

Thanks! I agree with you, the way it currently works is pretty old fashioned and limiting.. I've started learning C# and plan to fully rewrite the extension and add other features along the way.

Great!
I wait and watch it for using and contributing.

Having an issue in that the check for Aspect Ratio simply does not work at all.
I tried checking for covers that were not in 3:4 ratio, and this brought up every single game in my library except those that do not have a cover. 
   
Even on a whim I checked for games not in 600:800 on the idea that maybe it was being specific to that resolution instead of ratio but the same result,
   

1521 out of 1524 games are listed as not in 3:4 ratio with the only exceptions being the 3 games without covers.

Sorry for the delay. Fixed.

Just wanted to leave a note to mention this is a very useful tool. I particular appreciate that run it again will remove the now-invalid tags (and even delete them if they're empty) after fixing the issues.
