This was a function I wanted for a long time, as I have a karaoke project using a frontend. As I'm a fan of AM, I tried with version 2.7.0, as reported in the changelog:

spilinek (2 commits)
Support roms in subdirectories
Fix video related crashes

Here's the configuration I'm using, but without success:

`# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.7.0

executable D:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe
args --fullscreen --play-and-exit --aspect-ratio=16:9 --no-video-title-show "[romfilename]"
rompath E:\BackupKaraoke\roms\karaoke\2-INTERNACIONAL
romext .mp4;.MP4;.mkv;.MKV;.webm;.WEBM
artwork flyer
artwork marquee
artwork snap
artwork wheel
`

Maybe I'm making some mistake. Please save me.
Thanks a lot in advance.

In order to use subdirectories you have to use [name] in the rompath.

Example:
rompath $HOME/roms/psx/[name]

The other requirement is you have to create subdirectories named for each room.

Let me give more details about my case. Maybe I'm setting something up wrong. My folder structure is like this:

Inside the 2-INTERNATIONAL folder there are 27 folders, which correspond to the letters of the alphabet and one for roms starting with 0-9.

I included the [name] parameter in the rompath - rompath E:\BackupKaraoke\roms\karaoke\2-INTERNACIONAL\[name] - but when generating the list, I get this message:

I believe it's something simple that I'm failing, so I thank you in advance for your patience and exemplary work with this frontend.
