Problems with game list

[CthulhuCrisis]

So I thought I had this fixed with the help of this thread http://www.gameex.info/forums/topic/15522-resolved-trouble-with-psx-emulator/

but new issues have happened now. I followed the very helpful advice in that previous forum and it seemingly resolved my issue, and my games were appearing. Upon further inspection, only 13 of 23 games are appearing on the list. Those 13 seem to be working fine, but Gamex shows at the bottow "# of 23", where # is which game I have selected. Is this normal and I just have bad rips? The common denominator seem to be that it is the second half of the games alphabetically, and that they were originally *.ECM files. Any ideas what my next step should be?

and that they were originally *.ECM files. Any ideas what my next step should be?

I'm slightly puzzled by this statement - are they still .ecm files? Or were they and you converted them? If they still are .ecm files then you'll need to add them to the ROM Filter like before, separated by a semi-colon, For example: *.img;*.ecm

Add any other image formats to the filter too, as nullPointer mentioned - .iso, .cue etc.

I may be misunderstanding the problem though, so if you could may be answer some questions

The games you mention don't appear on the list at all?

Or, they appear but do nothing?

What format are they in now?

There could be a few things happening here and so i'd like to take some of the quess work out For anyone who assists you from this point

Honestly my recommendation is to avoid ECM disc image formats for the purposes of emulation (purely an opinion mind). This thread provides a great illustration of why I make that recommendation. Truly one of your best bets to simplify the configuration of disc based emulators is to keep all your disc images in the same format. You'll save your self a ton of headaches in the long run. I generally verify my sets with ReDump DATs, or alternately TOSEC using a tool like RomCenter. This last part isn't required by any means, but it sure helps to keep your sets tidy and buys some peace of mind as well.

Sorry for the confusion, They were originally in .ecm format, and when they didn't appear in the list, I decompressed them using ECM tools, as well as I tried to decompress them with a different program. Both programs appeared to have completed, but even after decompression, they still do not show up in the list. I found it strange that the list claims there are 23 items, but only show 13 selectable games. All the games were from the same source, so I'm not sure why some would work and some wouldn't, Though I can open them decompressed with PSX outside of Gamex.

Also, I went into the Emulator settings in the Config wizard and took away all the rom filtering, those games still did not show up.

So I feel Silly.. I changed the view in Gamex to a tile view instead of a list, and everything showed up. I guess it wasn't letting me scroll past the 13th entry... I will do some further testing and Resolve this post if everything is working properly.
