ROMVault

ROMVault

Docker app from laromicas' Repository

Overview

RomVault will take one or more DAT files and your set of ROM (zip) files, and clean up your files to match your DAT files. If you find more ROMs to add to your collection RomVault will scan and merge in these files, and if new DATs are released you can easily scan in these new DATs and update your ROM collections to match, all of this can be done with just a few button clicks in the UI.

The GUI of the application is accessed through a modern web browser (no installation or configuration needed on the client side) or via any VNC client.

Based on Ubuntu, size is big, but text is displayed correctly.

Known Issues:

  • Accessing several items in the help menu crashes the application.
