There is an option to let launchbox read only certain files from games folders?

[Tackskull]

For example when I want to add a playstation 1 game I have to manually select only the cue file, because if I would scan  the entire Ps1 rom folder, launchbox will count all the track files as games, resulting in thousand and thousands of track fles read as games. In my ps1 folder there are cue files, track files, and iso files. I would like that launchbox would be able to scan the folder reading only the cue an iso files. This happen also for sega saturn games, but the biggest problem I found is on the dreamcast, because dreamcast games need a subfolder, because the track files don't have the game's name (ex: track1, track2, track3), and putting  all the dreamcsat games in the root of the same folder, it will happens that many games have the trak files named the same (trak1, trak2,trak3) and windows doesn't let files with the same name to be in the same folder. SO it wouyl be awesome basically, if launchbox wouldread all the files but not the trak one, scanning also subfolders.

If launchbox would only detect .cue - .iso - .gdi - .cdi files, instead reading also the tack files, would be awesome. The only problem I thin are the track files.

Untill now I had to drag and drop only specific files on launchbox to avoid the reading of the tack files.

If there is a way tell me, if there is not, just make launchbox avoid read tracks file. Thanks

There is no way directly in LB to do this. The best way with multi file rom types is to use Windows and search your platform folder for only the specific file needed, select all, drag and drop into LB. LB is designed to be file type agnostic so it is not going to limit what it can search for.
