Chiming in to say this is happening to me, and I think I narrowed it down. All of my games are in individual folders due to being mirrored from my PC's no-intro or redump sets. In each instance, the folder that loads into a list of "loading" items has an Apostrophe/single quote ' in it. I.E. "Kirby's Adventure" or "Spyro 2 - Ripto's Rage" The file itself having an apostrophe/single quote in it seems to cause no issues.

Adding an update, this is apparently a miyoo OS issue, referenced here : OnionUI/Onion#301 It is listed in the docs here: https://onionui.github.io/docs/emulators#rom-files Although maybe a description of what using an apostrophe does for those searching the symptom, and/or a "known-issues" page or something might be more eyecatching, but you all do you. You'll have to forgive me, I was working backwards from "loading" to realizing the issue.

I would recommend one of two things. If you're using .bin and .cue files, get rid of the individual folders and put all the .bin and .cue files directly into the Roms/PSX folder. The other option is to use PS1 games in the .chd format, where the .bin and .cue files have been compressed into a single lossless file. I was using .bin and .cue, but now I only use .chd because the file size is much smaller, and there are less files. You can also convert your .bin and .cue files to .chd using CHDMAN.

Many thanks about your advice. Also i replace the apostrophe with a dash while waiting for a fix.
