PSX redump ignored #919

Open kivutar opened 5 years ago

The redump dat of PSX is ignored when building the RDB.

This is because our code first look at dat/Sony Playlistation.dat, then try to add metadata from metadat/redump/Sony Playstation.dat based on the serial. But this later file doesn't contain any serial. So the matching can't happen.

It causes problems like wrong file names. dat/Sony Playlistation.dat contains wrong names like Saga Frontier while metadat/redump/Sony Playstation.dat has the right name SaGa Frontier.

Thanks! Correct, there are two sources...

dat/Sony - PlayStation.dat is built from PSXDataCenter using libretro-database-psxdatacenter
metadat/redump/Sony - PlayStation.dat is built from Redump PSX using libretro-dats
