Well...of course it's possible to write a converter for such files....but of course you need some additional information like a set name and optionally crc32, size information. Cmpro does not convert such files and won't do this in the future.

Thanks, the idea is like another post i made some days ago.

But now i've noticed around 35 games in TeknoparrotUI had the option to check MD5 hash, exist some app or emu rom manager capable to fix folders and delete unneded files/folders to clean the dump (like cmpro)?, using the "game title".md5 file (supplied by the same TP team) or other automated way?.

Thanks.

The easiest would be to ask the authors if they can produce a better output :) Something in XML which either is directly something compatible to common datfiles or XML which can be easily transformed via xslt into something useful.

Yes, i insisted many times in Teknoparrot reedit (whitout any response), i don't know why they don't adopt the easy way dat/xml to manage files and preserve clean dumps. According whit mi info the md5 adoption validation is only to avoid modified files to prevent cheating in online play, not even for user managing files purposes. So i've dont have faith...

Thanks.
