[mythtv-users] mythgame not finding MAME roms

I have the same issue with .11.  I can not find any roms.  The roms are in
zip format and are playable using the xmame.x11 command.

I upgraded from 0.11 to 0.12 and have found only one issue so far, all
my roms were missing from the MAME list. Scanning for roms from the
setup screen did nothing visible, no progress bar, no delay.

I dropped the tables and rebuilt mythgame 0.12 and installed it fresh.
Now scanning for roms pops up the progress bar, but it stays at 0%. The
first time I do it, it takes a while, from then on it's only a second or so.

It finds only one game, Puckman. Yes, that game is in the roms path, but
so are many others. I can select and play Puckman just fine, but haven't
been able to get it to find any other games in the path. I verified that
the path hasn't changed, and that all the zipped roms are there. I see
nothing different between the puckman.zip rom and the others that give
me a clue why it finds that one and no others. They were all detected
and in the list under 0.11.

Any ideas?
