      Hi, In 4.0.0, you can hide files directly in ES by using "select" menu on your file and choose "hide" option. (very useful for .cue and bios files 🙂 )

        Just make sure that you are hiding only the bin files and that each PS1 games has a cue file with it.  Otherwise, you will have to generate cue files or the game won't show.

          Hi, is there still a global 'switch' to hide certain file types? Tomb Raider II for example has x61 tracks !! It is very tedious to 'hide' them all individually. Thanks.

            Hello Arne, Maybe you could download an other file from <del>[Link]</del> Internet. The .zip contains a .cue and a .bin which will be easier to handle. Edit Reivaax : No link to copyright content please. 😉

              Global switch is still there just edit your es_systems.cfg file and remove the unwanted extensions, same as before

                    Hi, I thought I had this problem sorted out but no. I think the path to the file is /recalbox/share_init/system/.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg But when I try to edit the file I get a "Read-only file system" error. It looks like the game files 'must' be hidden individually unfortunately. Thanks.

                      Hi, Try this command before editing it : mount -o remount,rw / You also should quit EmulationStation before saving changes or there will be erased: /etc/init.d/S31emulationstation stop Then after save: /etc/init.d/S31emulationstation start

                            edit the gamelist.xml and remove the <hidden> information on your game.
