You could check the debug log to review what game file(s) the addon is attempting to access. If it's a 7z file, thats the old archive listing. The game list files are here on github, so you can always manually download them as well and place them in the correct folder.

That one works for me. Be sure your login credentials are your EMAIL and password (I'm guessing thats the issue. I was going to update the label in the settings but forgot). On the plus side, you just made me play bloody roar for 10 minutes
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - trinib - 2017-03-03
Ohhh. i was putting username instead of email ..yes you gotta change that in your next version lol..You was getting your butt kicked for ten minutes ..just kidding
EDIT
Yes its working now ,thanks...I wonder i you can find a command to launch the game when start up for dosbox turbo
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - trinib - 2017-03-03
Hey zack..did you got epsxe app working ??..it launches and then epsxe gives error about loading m3u file and possiibles errors are
1. missing data rom img/iso/bin
2. .7z/.ape format not supported
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - blinken - 2017-03-04
Fantastic program! I just have a question. When I download PSX images, the downloaded rar file is kept even after its contents are extracted. I wonder why? If I delete the rar, the rom will no longer launch, it just says it is extracting the rar that no longer exists. If I restore the deleted rar, it will launch again.

The post download command for the games list is setup to launch the m3u file (to support Retroarch cores).
Based on the error message ePSXe gives, I'm guessing it requires pointing at the bin or cue file instead.
If thats the case you can manually change the line in the games xml file:
Code:
<emu_postdlaction>convert_zip_m3u</emu_postdlaction>Code:
<emu_postdlaction>convert_zip_track1_bin</emu_postdlaction>Code:
<emu_postdlaction>convert_zip_cue</emu_postdlaction>The difference being what file the addon attempts to 'point to' when there's multiple files in the same game.

I did just change this logic as well. The zip files are deleted after extraction. However, if you attempt to launch the game again, the addon will look to see if the folder or files in the current launch directory match the zipfile name, and it should not re-download (unless the cache was emptied). If you find an example that this doesn't work let me know. In my testing, this worked every time (although it was not exhaustive).
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - trinib - 2017-03-04
Ok i got it launching and playing with convert_zip_cue .. I hope all your ps1 zips have cue files in them
EDITED 2
For some reason when i launch first game it downloads and converts perfectly and when i choose a second game or same game(ps1) it don't extract the bin file but a next try does the trick..And it will keep on doing that and it will extract bin file on every other try or restart kodi

Can you provide a debug log with a few examples? Also ensure that your cache size is set appropriately (discs tend to be quite large when uncompressed).
