      Hi All,

      So when browsing under the psx page in retropie all of my game .cue files are being listed but so is every bin file.

      i took a look at https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/735/psx-please-remove-bin-from-the-file-types/6

      and followed

      Are you asking about it being a change to the official RetroPie image? Or are you asking to make the change to your personal system? If the latter, you can do it by modifying the \etc\emulationstation\es_systems.cfg file. Find the psx system and remove .bin .BIN from the <extension> tag.

      That line should look like this when you're done: <extension>.cue .CUE</extension>. Now only CUE files will show up in the list."

      But I don't see the .bin extension in my cfg file

        <system>
          <name>psx</name>
          <fullname>PlayStation</fullname>
          <path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/psx</path>
          <extension>.cue .cbn .chd .img .iso .m3u .mdf .pbp .toc .z .znx .CUE .CBN .CHD .IMG .ISO .M3U .MDF .PBP .TOC .Z .ZNX</extension>
          <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ psx %ROM%</command>
          <platform>psx</platform>
          <theme>psx</theme>
        </system>
      
      

      Any ideas?

        How did you install RetroPie ? The default image doesn't have .bin as a recognized extension and it also doesn't come with a customized system file.

          using this script from movisman - https://github.com/movisman/RetroPie-Setup-Ubuntu

          and i'm using http://skraper.net/ for the image art and videos

            @gareth_iowc Then instruct Skraper to not scrape the .bin files, only the .cue files.
