Hello again, Roman :)

I've tried to create a DAT file for a GoodMerged set as you suggested, but got some problems while auditing.

The scanner says that all sets are wrong-named, but the names are fine. The rom folder is consisting of 7-zipped sets. If the "fix name" option is enabled, all 7z archives get renamed to *.zip (only rename, no recompressing). Is this by design, or it is a bug?

I've rebuilt the roms to a new folder and auditing it went fine.
Then i've converted all *.zip files in this new folder to RAR archives, scanned it, and again got the "wrong-name" problem.

Do you have any advices on this?
I'd also like to know what are the most proper Dir2Dat settings for GoodMerged sets (a screenshot maybe?)
Note that all this was done on WinXP (guess 13days uptime is too much for my laptop, huh), so the Win98 7-Zip issue doesn't apply.


So far for the problems, now some suggestions for future ClrMamePro versions :)

About the setinfo tooltip/title. I think the best solution would be to leave this info only on the "Scan Results" and "Set Information" windows, and make it a tooltip for the rest of the windows. Would you like it this way?

For the "Settings" window - would it be possible to add some small checkbox/button to make it stay always on top (for easy drag'n'drop).

Dir2Dat "Force Zipping" setting - could you add a third "As is" option, which should force un/zipping for each set according to the current status of source files while creating the DAT ?

Thanks in advance.
