crlmamepro scanning and chd version

Hello,

I hope you could help me.

Yesterday I was scanning my romset and at the end of the scanning, for 32 chd clrmamepro gave me the following message (I keep as example "candy puzzle"):

Candy Puzzle (v1.0) [system: Cubo BIOS - folder: cndypuzl - size: 1mb]

required chd version mismatch: cndypuzl.chd [found version: 4] [required version: 5]

Than I proceeded to update the chd file with the last chdman version (from mame 0.244) but finally it corrects the version, but changes the sha1 putting it in the wrong format.

I tried to re-download the chd from retroroms, re-do the process from scratch but I get the same result.

Is there a way to correct the chd sha1 also?

what are you doing? for which MAME version? Which version of CHDMAN.exe? Which CLRMAME version

from MAME XML 0.244: 

<game name="cndypuzl" romof="cubo">

<description>Candy Puzzle (v1.0)</description>

<year>1995</year>

<manufacturer>CD Express</manufacturer>

<disk name="cndypuzl" sha1="5f41ed3521b3e05d233ac1245b78cb0b118b2b90" status="baddump"/>

</game>

I must also say that I do only a "quick" scan each version with all the CHDs.

So please give me more information and I will investigate it.

Thanks

A CHD has 2 SHA-1 codes, SHA1 and Data SHA1. You can see them using chdman info -i cndypuzl.chd

The internal Data SHA1 doesn't change when you update the CHD version, but the (file) SHA1 does change.

I guess you are using a dir2dat that checks the file SHA1, a normal dat checks the Data SHA1.

The file SHA1 will always change when you update the version of a CHD.

My full CHD set, checked with PD's dir2dat, contains several version 4 CHDs, including cndypuzl.chd.
So it's normal to still have some version 4 CHDs.

When you disable "list CHD version mismatches during scan" in Clrmamepro, it won't report the version mismatches.

You can find it under Settings -> Compressor -> CHDMan.

I'm using Mame and chdman 0.244, clrmamepro 4.045.

I'm updating the CHD with chdman to version 5 but I get a different sha1, and clrmamepro find it wrong.

In order to avoid these messages about sha1 is it convenient uncheck the option "List CHD version mismatches during scan"?

But I'd like to know if it is possible to update version without change the sha1 or if this is normal.
