PS3 auto importer adding game updates and dlc as games

Is there any way to have these files skipped?

Dont keep things that are not roms in your roms folder. That will always be a issue with any auto import on any system, you need organization.

The issue here is RPCS3 uses a hard drive folder structure so when a disc game or update is added it will be installed in dev_hdd0 and the importer is looking for eboot so this can not be organized any differently. Also you can not point to just the disc folder because LaunchBox will then not see any digital games which are installed in the game folder of the drive.

Having the same issue, but just for some games (MotorStorm Pacific Rift and Wipeout HD Fury disc release). Even with hdd0 being inside the emulator folder and the ROMs being in a completely separate folder

Same problem, it automatically imports other files as games, is there a way to switch automatic import on each platform?

You can turn off automatic ROM import from the option menu

Same issue for me.
It would be great to be able to add problematic files to a blacklist or something like that when we import manually so that then they are not picked up during automatic imports.

Just had this issue today after turning on automatic import. This is going to bother until I find a work around. All I wanted to do was to automize my growing collection.

I'd love it if you can tell it to ignore folders, like anything /Update or /DLC or something.

Hi Folks, I believe if you delete these additional update / DLC entries from LaunchBox, it won’t try to re-import them. Or are you finding after doing this it keeps re-importing them?
