Bug:
Whatever arcade ROM from whatever folder structure (flat or nested in genres) by whatever assigned arcade program (FBA or MAME) I launch I get this error:
Error: No program found to run '<romname>'.
My folder scheme for arcade ROMs: ROMs with long names and whitespace in camel cased genre folders
/media/sdCardName/pandora/roms/arcade/
GenreAaa/
Game One.zip
Game Two.zip
GenreBbb/
Game Three.zip
gamefour.zip
lib/
libfour.zip
Pandafe in general supports this folder structure in order to assign ROMs to genres.
Arcade ROMs in opposition to other console ROMs have the speciality to depend on libraries (other ROM files).
I don't know, whether the arcade emulators search for necessary shared rom libraries only in the directory of the launched rom, or also its parent and sister directories, or whether Pandafe is so smart/supportive and creates a fake flat ROM dir with links to the nested ROMS into the appdata directory, or hands over the whole ROM list as an env/argument to the launching program?
In the platform settings, there is an option "Extra Rom Files Regex". Is this to fulfill the purpose to catch roms (in particular: shared libs) in the parent (../*.suffix) and sibling (../*/*.suffix) directories?
My alternate folder scheme for arcade ROMs: 8.3 names in flat directory

Failed there too.
