Nope, mgalaxy don't read the rom, only the name and the screenshoot/video.

It was crashing while browsing the mame roms in mgalaxy.  Perhaps the rom I have is corrupted.

Code: [Select]
  <game name="apple2" cloneof="" tgdbID="" hidden="False">
    <fileinfo extension="" MD5="" size="" />
    <description>Apple ][</description>
    <release>1977</release>
    <overview>Apple II (c) 1977 Apple Computer Co.</overview>
    <genre>Computer / Home System</genre>
    <players>Non-arcade</players>
  </game>

Nothing special, I have tried to copy/paste it in my database, still no problem, it was crashing when mgalaxy parse the gamelist, or when you was on the game. Perhps the thumbnail ?

So I've been playing around with this and decided to remove all the roms that started with AP.  I was then able to browse without the crash.  Next I began adding the removed roms back one at a time and restarting mgalaxy.  I found the offending rom.  It is "apple2".  Don't know whats wrong with it but when its not in the roms file I have no issues. 
So I guess I have it fixed for now.

Mgalaxy Crashing while browsing Mame (Solved)

Like the title says, mgalaxy keeps crashing while browsing the Mame roms.  I do notice that it only happens in the AP section of the games list.  No issues above and below it.
I tried the suggestions in other threads without much luck. 

1. I removed all media paths and still experiance the crashing
2. It crashes no matter what theme I use.
3. I renamed the database file and had no problems then.
4.  I re-downloaded the database file using runway and changed nothing and mgalaxy crashed again.
