I'm looking to hide a CHD file that has the same name as a ZIP file.

I have chd files that I need scanned, so when I do a manual scan, I add chd to the file extensions area.

However, I also need to hide a chd file that has the same name as a zip file.

With Super Puzzle Bobble I must rename coh3002t.zip to spuzbobl.zip for it to function.

However, "spuzbobl" is also the same name as the chd file that is used for the game so the dat file is populating both.

Here is what I have currently:

Game Folder
spuzbobl / spuzbobl.chd
spuzbobl.zip

DAT FILE


machine name="spuzbobl">
description>Bust-A-Move, Super (World)</description
comment>Renamed coh3002t.zip File - new file name - spuzbobl.zip</comment
/machine>

game isbios="yes" name="spuzbobl">
comment>Trick to believe its a bios file to Hide CHD - file name - spuzbobl.chd</comment
description>Bust-A-Move, Super CHD</description
/game>


Can someone recommendation a DAT file edit to hide this CHD file?
Here are my results from the DAT config above. It populates both the ZIP and CHD files with the following name.

Bust-A-Move, Super (World)
Bust-A-Move, Super (World)

Indeed for some reason both the core and the info file has chd extension added in the extension list, which does not really make any sense, since those aren't supposed to be launched directly, because the core can't know what system to use with it anyway..
