Hello!
I have zooo.chd file. chdman -info returns correct SHA1 (as displayed with Set Information button), yet CMP doesn't want to rebuild it. Why?
-
Easy answer: The rebuilder rebuilds roms, not chds.
It's on my to do list for ages, however not with a high priority.
clrmamepro's scanner can move any wrong named/wrong placed chd to its correct place though. So for example you can rename your zooo.chd to bla.chd, move it to a rompath and the scanner will automatically rename it, creates the correct subfolder and moves it to the correct place.

I converted all my CHD files to the new format, but I can't get clrmamepro to create the folders and move them to the right spot. I tried both the rebuilder and the scanner and neither seems to work. I know I must be doing something wrong, but I'm not sure exactly what that might be. Any ideas?

After a little more messing around, I think I accidentally figured out the problem.
I was scanning with only "CHDs" checked since that seemed like the obvious thing to do to get it to fix my CHDs.
In reality, I needed to check BOTH "Sets" AND "CHDs" to make it work its magic.
I'm still not sure what, exactly, checking "CHDs" by itself does, but checking both works.

Since I told you to put the chd in a rompath (and that's where sets are stored), you have to enable the sets scan.
There is no reason to turn off sets anyway.
