EmuCR: ES-DEEmulationStation Desktop Edition (ES-DE) v2.0.0 is released. EmulationStation Desktop Edition (ES-DE) is a frontend application for browsing and launching games from your multi-platform game collection. It comes preconfigured for use with RetroArch and a number of other emulators. It's also fully customizable so you can easily expand it to launch any emulators or applications that are not included in the bundled configuration. ES-DE is free and open source and will remain so forever. It's also true multi-platform and runs on numerous operating systems such as Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Manjaro, Fedora, FreeBSD, macOS and Windows.

Invalid ScreenScraper game entries were sometimes not filtered out from server responses
During some menu operations that reloaded the gamelist view, the cached background could miss some components as they were not rendered in time
Text wrapping did not work correctly for text that typically does not contain spaces, like Japanese

The gamelist quick list scrolling overlay would not disappear as intended under some circumstances
Using the trigger buttons to jump to the start or end of a gamelist did not reset any currently held navigation buttons
When a legacy theme set had a video view style but did not have a valid md_video entry then the video player would still start (and play the audio)
Clearing a game in the metadata editor would sometimes not remove all media files (if there were both a .jpg and a .png for a certain file type)
Adding collections or changing collection settings could sometime lead to the gamelist not getting rendered until navigating away from the current system
The tile property for the image element did not work correctly with SVG images
