Here's the latest change-log for details (you'll also find this link on the QMC2 homepage under "DEV / HELP").

QMC2 .52 Looks like it doesn't care for me having multiple UNCs in my rom path. I've tried: c:\games\roms;\\hello\roms;\\hello\software and it doesn't parse it out to the command line when launching games. It cuts off one of the slashes. Windows x64 system.
I imported the mame.ini just in case and the same thing happens. Launching games by themselves outside of QMC2 works fine.

Yeah, because it has to be "//" and not "\\"! And "c:\games\roms" has to be either "c:\\games\\roms" or "c:/games/roms".
Paths in Qt are POSIX-like ("\" has to be escaped with "\"), so this would work as well: "c:\\games\\roms;\\\\hello\\roms;\\\\hello\\software".

I have an issue with Mantis. Although I am a "reporter" it does not allow me to make feature requests. What could be wrong?
Anyway... A few feature requests:
First and foremost: Support multiple paths, almost everywhere. Depending on the path type, allow QMC2 to use multiple paths, going from first to last find required data OR (user option) use ALL paths to find required data.
Example #1: history.dat paths: ../../EMULATORS/MAME/dat/history.dat;../../CLEAN/MAME/EXTRAS_COMMON/dat/history.dat This will look in ../../EMULATORS/MAME/dat/ and IF NOT THERE, also try ../../EMULATORS/MAME/dat/
Example #2: titles folder paths: ../../EMULATORS/MAME/titles/;../../CLEAN/MAME/EXTRAS_COMMON/titles/ This will look both folders for EACH title snapshot and use whichever available (first takes precedence).
Example #3: snaps folder paths: ../../EMULATORS/MAME/snaps/;../../CLEAN/MAME/EXTRAS_COMMON/snaps/;../../CLEAN/MAME/EXTRAS_COMMON/personal_snaps/ This will look ALL folders and use ALL snapshots (snapshots tab to have "previous"/"next" - at least until custom tabs read from user set paths are supported). There should be a button to change a path list from "in turn" mode to "all" mode.
Second: Really support a local .qmc folder (portable install). Check if there is .qmc folder in own directory. Some people do not want to use their home directory.
Third: Since I talked about folders. Auto-correct POSIX/Win path convention (and even mixed paths that sometimes result from copy-paste) depending on system QMC2 is used on.
Thanks.

Does QMC2 already have support for .mp4 video reproduction? If so, maybe would be a good idea to support collection of videos directly from the frontend. A nice example of this kind of collection is the new videosnaps from ANTOpisa: http://www.progettosnaps.net/videosnaps/I'm sure that, if technically possible, this kind of feature would improve the experience using QMC2 even more
