Some Arcade ROMs not being detected
I've got a folder of 1668 roms. Several of those are going to be 'bios' files (neogeo.zip for example), but of those 1668 files, only 1582 games are being detected. I know some of these are games.
The first example I have verified as not being dtected is the file tmntub.zip. This should be a standard variant of the first TMNT arcade game, but it's not getting detected. I renamed a copy of it to tmnt.zip and it showed up, but I shouldn't have to do that, right?

Is game set merging on or off? When on variants of a game will appear as one game. When you play TMNT are you offered a list of variants to choose from?
Game Merging is off. No variants are offered. tmnt2.zip is detected correctly as TMNT: Turtles in Time. No results for the first TMNT game, despite tmntub.zip being in the same directory.
Thanks for your response!
Is there a fix for this yet? Just noticed no Sega ST-V games show up at all, but they show up in mame4droid. Love this frontend!
The latest beta has the latest MAME history.dat incorporated. It doesn't seem to include tmntub though so it looks like they removed or renamed it. If you know what version of MAME it was in I can look for that history.dat.
As for Sega ST-V I don't know. I'll check it out.

Took me a while to make it back here, but thank you for this!
