I use the v2.0.0 on my Mac OS and I have the message "Error loading file...." as shown attached.

This message appeared when I wanted to add more games on my SD Card on which there were already some.

Do you know where does it come from ?

Thanks in advance for your help ! ;)
Hi,
The app can't load some CDI files. What game is on the "02" folder? If I can get the game file, I can try to debug it on my end.

Hi Sonik, Thanks for your reply.
Indeed I already erased the cdi files and I'm trying now with gdi files from another archive collection to see if I still have the same kind of issues... ;)

Just a quick question: I don't have the "GDI Shrinking" option on the Mac OS versions, is it normal ?

You can manually place the images in the open menu, because some games have no images on both CDI and GDI.

Yes. In-app gdi shrinking is only available on windows.
It requires usage of an external app. Since I don't own a mac and have no means of testing, I'm only doing this on the windows build.

Hey there, thanks so much for this software, it's amazing and so helpful to manage my SD card.

It worked flawlessly at first, but upon attempting to add or re-sort games after the initial dump, I get an error like this:

Error loading file /Volumes/DREAMCAST/04/._disc.gdi

It's not always the 04 file. If I reload the files in that folder, it will then select another one and give me the same error. The only thing that solves it is wiping the card clean and starting again within the Card Manager.

Is this something that's been solved? I read through the thread and only saw a similar issue related to the 01 folder with the GDMENU files, but that issue was resolved.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm on a Mac for reference.

No idea what's going on there :-(
I'm no mac expert but files starting with a dot are hidden files?
