Edited my post as I just realized you said RomCenter. I do not use RomCenter to audit my roms so I cannot provide an answer.

I think romcenter is a frontend, unlike retroarch. Romcenter comes with emulators. Yabause, Dolphin, and more. Retroarch uses cores.

I don't think you understand what Retroarch is, Retroarch is a frontend and it uses the libretro cores which are emulators. Retroarch itself just acts as the universal GUI for the cores / emulators and it also handles all the input and sound.

In this instance core and emulator are the exact same thing.

RomCenter is a rom manager: https://www.romcenter.com/about-romcenter/

Use it in what way? My understanding is romcenter is for organizing and renaming roms, so you would point it at your roms, not a emulator?

Yes, I use retroarch for émulation.

Romcenter sort, repair or delete romset. 

In fact I would like To Check a full set rom automatically.

I think there is some confusion about what exactly you want to do.

My guess: Romcenter allows playing games directly and you want to use have it use Retroarch directly from there?

Based on what it says RomCenter does I think he is wanting to use it to confirm his roms are supported by Retroarch/Cores.

Retroarch github has dat files but they are more useful for using the internal Retroarch database, not necessarily for what works.
