Hi there,

When I try to load a game, it just loops back to the game menu. So I think I followed the instructions properly, this is how it's setup when looking vie FileZilla:

Make sure /media/fat/games/mame does *not* exist (or alternately move /media/fat/_Arcade/mame to /media/fat/games - the entire directory, not just the contents). If you have both, things get wonky.

There was no "Mame" directory in "Games" and moving it there didn't change anything.

I see the problem, it is the MRA files. They are far too large, they should be about 1-3 KB in size.


If you right-click on a mra file and select Save link as, you will get an incorrect file that is over 100 KB.

Click on the mra file and it will go to this screen. Right-click on the Raw button and select Save link as. This will download the proper file.
