libretrodb_tool list issue

See original GitHub issue

Guys, i’m hoping you can give me a sanity check on this issue.

I have this bash file:

#bash
for file in *.rdb
do
  echo $file\n
  libretrodb_tool "$file" list >> "${file%.rdb}.dat"

done

When I simply run the list commands myself, and pipe them to a file, all is well other than the Segmentation fault at the end of each file. No problem, I just remove that programmatically.

When I run the above code, the resulting files have many errors. For example, Tomb Raider.dat ends up like this:

It literally ends right there.

There is a line in Atari - 7800.dat that looks like this: {"sha1": "2FF076488E39F{"sha1": "58E1A65114689E526AD89A4A47E237161D15AB2B", "md5": "324A08B67016600E5BD21218AA3E84F8", "crc": "629D1032", "size": 49280, "rom_name": "Super Huey UH-IX (USA).a78", "description": "Super Huey UH-IX (USA)", "name": "Super Huey UH-IX (USA)"}

I have no idea what could cause this. It almost seems impossible.

THANK YOU!
