instead it says importing games... and just hangs there, if i press cancel it 
says cancelling but never finishes cancelling

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

figured it out, either the pathname was too long or contained weird characters 
that was throwing it off. Changed the directory to a more sane name and now it 
works.

Yes, RCB has some problems with [] in path names. Already on my list for future 
fixes. Thanks for reporting.

It might be a good idea to mention this somewhere in the first time use guide, 
or a f.a.q.

Sure it's not that big of a deal (if one is aware of the defect) but could be a 
deal breaker for less patient users who's collections use GoodROM file/folder 
names.

j/s I've installed RCB a time or two and always concluded it was just another 
broken xbmc script. Kind of annoying to realize that time spent troubleshooting 
could have been avoided had setup/install documentation been more informative.

This should work with latest releases of RCB (2.0.5 and above).
