Mame Gameboy Color roms: no playlist after scan #670

Hello, I tried several times to scan my Mame Gameboy Color roms, without success, no playlist are created. I put Mame hash folder in /.config/retroarch/mame/ folder but that change nothing.

Thank you for your help.

I'm pretty sure MAME's console ROMs aren't in any of our databases, so this isn't a surprise.

Not so true, actually I already scanned "SNES" "NES" "N64" "Amstrad CPC" Mame roms with success.

I finally create a Mame Game Boy Color playlist with "RetroArch Playlist Buddy" app. This app uses the MAME Dat file to create playlist. It is planned that Retroarch will use xml hash files or Mame Dat files to scan Mame Roms (arcade/computer/console)?

Using MAME's XML hash files would be great: libretro/RetroArch#6023
