Backporting works again: the library scan finds your games, it now collects
from every console you own, and the Backport button is no longer stuck behind a
warning that was not true.

The scan finds your backported games again

Scanning a console for backport libraries reported "No backported games found"
even on a console full of them, which left you with an empty library corpus and
no way to back anything port.

  • The scan was talking to the wrong port. It asked the console for each
    game's fakelib/ folder on the transfer port instead of the management port,
    so every single lookup failed. Measured on a 9.60 console: all 40 titles came
    back as "not backported" before, 34 library sets after.

  • A failed scan no longer looks like an empty console. Any error reading a
    game — console asleep, unreachable, permissions — was reported identically to
    "this game was never backported", and the summary said zero errors. It now
    tells those apart and says which console it could not reach.

One library corpus, fed by every console

  • Scan collects from all your consoles at once. The button used to read
    only the console you had selected. It now sweeps every console you have set
    up, skips any that are asleep (naming them), and files everything into the
    one shared library corpus. Libraries harvested from one console are usable
    when backporting on any other.

The Backport button is no longer falsely blocked

  • "Library overlay is not available — send the current ps5upload payload"
    was wrong.
    The payload was reporting its overlay status correctly all
    along; the engine was silently dropping that status before it reached the
    screen, so the button stayed disabled no matter how current your payload was.
    Backport is available again on a console running a current payload.

Smaller things

  • The backport summary showed a literal {profile} instead of the set name.
  • Backport wording now says "set" throughout, matching what the corpus actually
    stores, instead of the older "profile".
