hi all I play a lot of emulated game consoles, from regular nintendo, nes to playstation 2, ps2. The freedesktop mime database has no magic detection for nes, snes, wanderswan, some of the older atari rom types, and doesn't support ps1 or 2 rom images, nor xbox images. I'd like to help improve this. I have a couple of ps1 and one ps2 roms I can provide, so a magic sequence can be found, because of now caja identifies everything with a .bin extension as a "sega cd disk image" when they clearly aren't. This doesn't affect playability, I just use mednafen or pcsx2 to open the files but it is a little bit confusing. Also, does anyone have any desire to improve the set of generic icons for game image files? I know that game titles are probably copyright in terms of logos and such, but is it possible to provide a blank NES cartridge, or a blank Snes cartridge, blank sega cartridge, etc to use as icons instead of the generic executible icon? Same for gamecube, wii and playstationa nd xbox rom images, if those get added? I have blank dvd's, I'd be happy to take pictures of them and remove any branding, and I also have a couple of gamecube mini disks, I could do the same thing. I'd also be interested in helping improve the existing mime database.
