The "&" symbol does not show the game preview

The “&” symbol does not show the game preview. How can this be fixed?

the image must have the same name as the roms

The names are all the same! The same problem with other files where there is a “&” symbol

Some special characters change.

Adventures of Batman _ Robin, The (USA).png

You can always see the name of the other thumbnails as a bow. Or, if you have the desktop version, you can use “Show Desktop Menu” and drag the image on top of the game you want to update.

See the info on special characters:

https://docs.libretro.com/guides/roms-playlists-thumbnails/#thumbnail-paths-and-filenames

The thumbnail filename should exactly match the game’s title as listed in the playlist with an important exception. The following characters in playlist titles must be replaced with _ in the corresponding thumbnail filename: &*/:<>?|`

The filename should match the “label” in the playlist. So for example

{
  "path": "D:\\Retro\\Genesis\\Beavis and Butt-Head (USA).md",
  "label": "Beavis & Butt-Head (USA)",
  "core_path": "D:\\RetroArch_1-19-0\\cores\\genesis_plus_gx_libretro.dll",
  "core_name": "Sega - MS/GG/MD/CD (Genesis Plus GX)",
  "crc32": "F5D7B948|crc",
  "db_name": "Sega - Mega Drive - Genesis.lpl"
},

Normally, in this case the png would be named “Beavis & Butt-Head (USA).png” same as the label line but because & is considered a special character it would need to be called “Beavis _ Butt-Head (USA).png” instead
