    populated
    catver.ini, I get system and genre, but I can't go past genre to

    the gamename.  It's only showing me the genres for games that I do
    have,
    so I think it's populating the database, but haven't looked into the
    tables yet.

    Has this been seen before?  I couldn't find anything exactly like
    this in
    google.



If it's anything like what I've seen, you've got a catver.ini in DOS format. Try unzipping it with the "-a" switch to get it in Unix text format, then rescan for games.

The problem is that the trailing line feed gets inserted into the database, which prevents the later *search* query (which has the line feed stripped by virtue of passing through a QT control) from matching anything. I wrote a patch to fix this, i.e. allow bos DOS and UNIX format catver.inis to be used (along with a few other bugs in mythgame that prevented me from using it)... but I didn't submit anything because the current SVN code for mythgame is completely different from 18.1.
