I found other possible bugs:
1- all roms in "bios".zip and CHD folders are marked how "not used in this file" or "not needed here";
I also noticed that bug myself.

OK, can't take an oath on what exactly happened here but i believe one of two things happened:

1. When i loaded a b6 DB for the first time in b7, RC performed the conversion but it also changed the rom merge mode from Split to Un-merged.
2. After the conversion of the DB to b7, when loading an additional path at the settings/romsets screen and assigning it as a Split Samples path, RC also changed the rom merge mode from Split to Un-merged.

Possibly #2 has happened but unfortunately i don't have the previous DB so i can't verify it. Trying to reproduce it with the existing DB but no luck.
