Dreamcast - Duplicate entries showing in games list, how to remove

jag64551

Hello - apologies if something like this already exists. I didn't find anything directly applicable. I hadn't had any issues with the initial setup of my Retropie and about 40 games, but recently I added Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 for Dreamcast, and after updating the gamelist.xml for Dreamcast, I now get two entries in the list. One with the original filename title, and one with the more simplified title that I used in the gamelist.xml. Only one rom exists. I did not rename the rom file, as I know that can cause issues. Everything works great with the updated entry (title, video, image, description all work), but the original title entry is still there. If you click into it, it does take you to the right Rom and the game works.

Thoughts on how I can clean that out and just have the updated version display?

I included a couple of screenshots. One shows the working entry, and one shows the duplicate entry. They appear this way under Dreamcast as well as under All Games.

You have a .gdi and a .cue, both are considered as games by EmulationStation and both are shown. Delete the .gdi file.
