As the name implies, these application versions are only tracked, not pulled. This was done because we can't pull these resources, but you may still care to know when these resources have updates so you can pull them manually. For example: NetherSX2 can't provide an APK for legal reasons, but you'll get update notifications so you don't have to manually check or be stuck with outdated resources.
When you get notified of an update to your track only resource:
- visit the link to your resource
- download it manually
- in obtainium > click resource > click "Mark Updated"
Same as install method. It'll update existing resources. It will not remove any other resources you've added.
No.
You cannot install more than one version of the same app. For example: You must choose between RetroArch (stable) or RetroArch (nightly). You cannot have both.
Obtainium allows you to filter for links on a page using regular expression (regex) It also allows you to follow multiple links using regex. see https://regexr.com/7rmf7 for a basic example of how this works.
Yes. Absolutely it can. Any of the scrapers that use regex can break if the maintainer changes their page. The applications pulling from GitHub are more stable and less likely to break.
