[Feature Request] Improvements to the Gaming section

[theotherguy2175]

I love all the work done with the gaming section for fireshare. Somethings that I am happy to help code too, but curious if it would be worth the time is some improvements:

I have mine open to the public, so my friends don't login. Meaning it would be nice if there is an optional setting to allow at least adding a new game, or the option to choose a game when uploading.

Even better was another option that it can search steamgriddb from the video title and auto tag it to the game if there is a match. For isntance a lot of our game titles follow this format:
Call of Duty Black Ops 6 2025.05.01 - 22.48.17.03

Doing a search on steamgriddb does show CoD BO6 from that title even with the extra, so not sure if the api can do a search like that, so first see if the game exsits in the gaming library and create it, then tag.

I believe this is something that is already in the works. No ETA though. It likely won't be perfect because folder and file titles are never going to perfectly align with actual titles in steamgrid db. So it may incorrectly categorize some things.

At the moment there are no plans for this. Of course, if you have the coding ability and know how you are welcome to make an attempt, but any solution that makes it into the build will need to be a clean solution.

Officially implemented in v1.4.0!!

Hit the new manual scan button in games to see it in action. Should be able to auto categorize based off of the folder paths and file names :)
