Excellent, I think my issue here is related:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/libretro/libretro-database/master/metadat/redump/Sony%20-%20PlayStation.dat

As of 1.6.7, directory scanning is now halting entirely on the first one it fails to add. Previously it would just skip over it and scan the entire directory. This excites me, could be a lot easier to track this down now.

Here's a list of psx games that are failing to scan for me:

Disney's Action Game featuring Hercules (Europe).cue
crc: cfdc04f0

Final Fantasy VIII (Europe, Australia) (Disc 1).cue
crc: 57ad2286

Final Fantasy VIII (Europe, Australia) (Disc 2).cue
crc: 56f00457

Final Fantasy VIII (Europe, Australia) (Disc 3).cue
crc: e0ebe427

Final Fantasy VIII (Europe, Australia) (Disc 4).cue
crc: 544a49f5

Future Cop - L.A.P.D. (Europe) (En,Fr).cue
crc: 0df08fd6

Small Soldiers (Europe).cue
crc: 05281c85

Could be happening for other rom's, but I'm mostly interested in psx so I haven't noticed anything anywhere else.

Edit: Checked against this database:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/libretro/libretro-database/master/metadat/redump/Sony%20-%20PlayStation.dat

Edit: Removed Tomb Raider, that scans fine. My mistake.

Ahhh, I'm not sure what you mean by 'serial is inside 1st data track'.

I doubled checked for the first game on the list and found that both size, crc, md5 and sha1 match. Same with the filename. Still doesn't detect and get added to the playlist.

If you have some .bin in the directory, it can take 1 minute for RA to scan it, depending on your processor. Try to wait and see if the scanning continues.

Just ran your test, after waiting roughly 3 minutes (Timing started after it no longer reports scanning) using the function, the process halts after it hits Disney's Action Game featuring Hercules (Europe). The 8 games before it take about 3 seconds each to scan an add to the playlist. Then entirely halts when it attempts to scan Disney's Action Game featuring Hercules (Europe).

To add the games after that, I have to scan by file individually. Using the individual file scan on the previously reported games also fails to add the the playlist.

I'm running a R7 1700 on Windows 10. The scanning for these particular games happens to also fail on my Flatpak installed RertoArch on Fedora 26. My Fedora setup is running a i7-4600U.
