The Mega CD support is a great feature and it is working very well with a set containing:
- 1 .cue
- 1 .iso file (first track of the ripped game CD)
- n .wav files (the rest of the tracks)

The problem is that genplus can handle .cue files (using .iso+.wav) as well as stand-alone .iso files (with music tracks). So when I click on the "Open Mega CD game", the .wav files are not displayed, but the two files left (.iso and .cue) are displayed for a single game.
When several games are installed it's just a mess, and for newbies it's hard to know you must launch .cue instead of the .iso .

A nice and simple feature would be to add an option to display only .cue files in the file manager when opening a Mega CD game.

    Well, i don't want to do that for several reasons, first being that i think adding too much options actually confuse things instead. Then, cue file are not necessary with iso+wav files, providing wav files are named properly. As for directories being a mess, well, use subdirectories, that's what they are for.
    Finally, about newbies, there is a readme explaining all these things.

    Thx for the quick -but detailed- reply. This evolution was for confort only
    so if you think it is useless I am ok with that.
    About Sega CD support do you think MP3 will be handled will be implemented
    some day, or is the GameCube/Wii hardware not powerfull enough to manage
    real-time decoding ?

    By the way thanks a lot for the great work you have done so far.
