Virtual Pinball Backup Manager Installer
By malibu
Virtual Pinball Backup Manager (VPBM) is a backup manager aimed at generating and managing individual game backups for Virtual Pinball systems using the Pinup System. These backups can be browsed and compared to the live system, and restored/updated as needed.
VPBM processes a variety of game content including:
Game scripts/files Backglass files, POV files, ROM and NVRAM files as well as alt colour/sound files (VPX) Game libraries required by game scripts (Future Pinball) Game specific Pinup Player Pup Packs Game specific Pinup Popper front end media files Copies of all stored game database settings Copies of any game specific registry settings (VPX)
This is the first publicly released version of VPBM so feedback is welcome.
The contents of a games backup can easily be viewed within the application using the tree view, while an integrated Quick View bar provides users a quick visual indication of the presence of critical files - as shown in the screenshot provided. Additionally, a Pinup View displays Pinup media, in a manner consistent with how media is displayed within Pinup Menu Setup.
VPBM is not designed to replace Pinup System, in fact it depends on it to function - rather it tries to add features that make managing game files and settings easier. I found myself storing all files used by a game in a backup folder and then having to manually copy these files when I felt the need to update my system, VPBM automates this process.
VPBM has been designed to quickly highlight to users when a games backup has fallen out of synch with the currently installed version of the game, allowing users to use the functions provides to address the inconsistencies.
VPBM backup files are encrypted and locked to the machine that they were created on, however a mechanism is provided to export games to a known external system. For infromation on this feature, refer to the Export Path and Export Host Identifier settings within the Application Settings help pages. This process does not allow games to be exported and shared universally.

databasemanager ClrVpin - content and database management tool
By stoj
ClrVpin is an open source virtual pinball content management tool. It's designed to automate the manual tasks of keeping your collections and databases..
Current Accurate Clean Minimal
Features
Feeder - check online feeds for potential updates to your collection. Browse the VPS (open source) feed using customizable filters - e.g. last update time, table type, manufacturer, content type, etc. Open the web browser to review, rate, and download content. Frontend agnostic. Merger - merge downloaded updated content into your collection. Apply criteria to automatically ignore certain files - e.g. older files, too small, adult content, etc. Applies fuzzy logic algorithms to match the file names to the entries in your collection - e.g. author, version, acronyms, incorrect manufacturer/year, etc. Use 'trainer wheels' mode that allows you to review the changes that would be made before any changes are actually made. Automatically backup your files before making any changes. Cleaner - clean the existing content in your collection (e.g. after merge). Fix files that satisfy customizable criteria - e.g. incorrectly named files, obsolete files, etc. Detailed reports on what was changed Plus all the features offered by Merger.. fuzzy matching, trainer wheels, automated backups, etc. Explorer - explore content in your collection. Identify missing and out of date content - e.g. missing wheel, out of date table video, etc. Apply customizable filters to locate the table(s) of interest. View and edit all table information stored in your database. Open the content to see how it looks/sounds/etc - e.g. open images, play videos, listen to table audio, etc.
Supported Applications
Visual Pinball X (open source) engine - Tables, Backglasses, and POV. PinballY (open source) and PinballX frontends - Videos, Audio, Wheels, Instructions, Flyers, etc.
Notes
By design, it will update your collection's files and database(s). All changes are backed up before any changes are made, but if in doubt please make your own additional backup too. Also, it can be run in 'trainer wheels' mode which describes what would be made without actually making any changes. Once installed, there is an automatic update option to ensure it keeps in sync with the latest version.
A lot more information (with detailed instructions) is available on the github wiki.
I hope you find it useful as I do.. enjoy 😀
