I was verifying Oni (USA) and ran into something unusual. The size in the database didn't match the size of my dump although my hash calc values were identical.
When I include the size of a game I usually right click the bin file and use the one labeled (Size on Disc) it looks like IpseDixit used the size option instead. For most games the Size & Size on Disc match each other but this game they are different.
Image Size: 740,675,376 bytes (Size)
Image Size: 740,675,584 bytes (Size on Disc)
Should I be using Size or Size on Disc when submitting entry's?
If it is the size option then the database entry for Oni is correct.

Re: Quetion about game size
It's the "size" value that should be used. I think that the "size on disc" depends of the file system and cluster size...
That's why i think that Clrmame should be used always, even for single track discs...
