Title: Some CHDs treated differently?
Post by: katz on 25 April 2009, 15:56: Hello

With CHDs scanning disabled (I have none), some CHDs sets are still detected as missing (fe. 700a04.chd or psyvaria.chd).
How to disable displaying them as missing?

TIA

Actually this shouldn't happen. Are you sure they are listed as "missing chd" and not by a different thing like "missing set"?

Post by: katz on 26 April 2009, 17:21: 6 are reported actually as missing sets- the ones that contain also non-CHD file (fe. initdv2j containing gds-0026.rom and gds-0026.chd- I don't have non-CHD files of these sets either).
This is Missing part of report (CHD scanning disabled):
Missing
?Sets 6/8031
?Roms 0/117522
?CHDs -/388
?Samples -/2178
?Bytes 0/67gb

Post by: Roman on 27 April 2009, 06:26: A missing set isn't a missing chd. clrmamepro is correct in showing you the missing set since you actually miss it ;)
There are chd-only sets which consist only of a chd definition, no roms, no samples (and maybe biosroms which are usually separated). If you scan for missing 'sets' and don't have the chd, the 'set' is listed as missing. If you also enable the missing 'chd' check, you will additionally see 'missing chd' messages.
Since disabling the 'Sets' check is not recommended, you can fool cmpro by simply adding an empty rompath subfolder for the chd in question as you did for the other chds. Then the missing set message won't appear anymore (however a missing chd one will appear if 'chd' is enabled).
