Just to be sure we are on the same page... I'm talking about the (game) name, not the rom file names. I know that the rom file names can change between mame versions, but the name can change as well? This would make it very difficult for a database to keep track of anything, as no sort of ID would be associated with a game... Unless mame is using a database with an autoincrementing ID column and matching them to mame versions. But I think you see where I'm going here.
I need to match a game with artwork in my web app.
I can parse the XML on my own. I don't even use windows. I just want to know what keys or attributes to filter in the XML file.
