There's multitudes of inline tags that are supported for Jellyemu that all provide a wide range of extra support/functionality.

Region Tags

Region tags are a way to categorize and organize your gaming content, it also displays a badge related to the region when browsing.

Examples:

  • Doom (EU).iso ➔ Displays Europe Tag.
  • Aladdin (USA).iso ➔ Displays USA Tag.

Metadata Tags

Sometimes, game titles are ambiguous, or a metadata provider grabs the wrong version of a game (like an HD remake instead of the retro original).

You can force JellyEmu to link the ROM to a specific database entry by adding a provider ID directly into the filename. The plugin will use this exact ID to fetch artwork and descriptions, and will automatically hide the token from the UI.

Provider Tag
RAWG [rawg-19291]
IGDB [igdb-9102]
Wikipedia [wiki-8482]
LexalOffle [loid-819821]
Hasheous [hash-235694]
SteamDBGrid [sdbg-34084]

Examples:

  • Doom [igdb-1039].iso ➔ Forces the IGDB entry for the 1993 original, rather than the 2016 reboot.
  • Aladdin (Sega) [rawg-871812].md ➔ Forces the exact RAWG entry.

You can combine provider IDs and platform tokens safely. For example: Sonic Adventure [igdb-3273][Sega CD].chd will properly match the IGDB database entry, assign it to the Sega CD platform, and display cleanly as simply Sonic Adventure.
