As an alternative, you could try Desktop mode and SGDBoop.
Grab SGDBoop from the Discover store, and then enable the shortcut button on the SteamGridDB website. You can browse for your games and apply artwork with a button that appears. For non-Steam games you may have to select the title from a list.
I haven't found this process to be too painful for the handful of games I have that don't have grid art.
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately I keep getting an error “Could not find any non-steam apps”. I suspect this is because this is a streamed game and not locally installed.
That's a bummer, I wish I had another idea.
Appreciate the help regardless. With anything new there’s always the question of “is it a newbie thing and I’m doing it wrong or …”?
