Yeah, it's an unfortunate side-effect of using the MAME through the command line.

The problem is that first I have to use the -listxml option which extracts an XML which is something like 28MB! Then I have to use the -verifysets option to get a listing of all the ROMs you have and which ones are working well. Then I have to "merge" one with the other in a sense as I need the full info for only the working ROMs.

I will be looking into speeding it up somehow, but I don't see it as a show-stopper as it's only done once in a while really.

If you do have any more comments, please let me know.


Oh yeah, and if you have anybody who has multiple screens, could you maybe get them to test it and let me know how it works? I don't have and would like to know if it works properly or not.
