Here is what I believe is a reproducible error in romcenter 2.71 ( it may have existed in other versions but I've only revisted romcenter with this latest version).
Zip files will not be checked and an unknown rom error will be shown if 1 or more of the folders in a directory have spaces in them.
for example let's say you have a folder called "nds" (rompath set to nds)
and in it you have :
"0251-0300"
"Progetto Nintendo DS roms - pack 001"
this will cause the unknown rom error
even directories with no spaces with not work if 1 directory has spaces.
renaming the folder "Progetto Nintendo DS roms - pack 001" to
"Progetto_Nintendo_DS_roms_-_pack_001" will solve this problem with a refresh
also making rom path go deeper seems to work i.e.
"Progetto Nintendo DS roms - pack 001\0001"
until this is fixed just delete all spaces from FOLDER names and you won't have to manually unzip all your compressed zip files
Bugs in 2.71 Blanks spaces in folder names = zip problems
