    R4DS? What type of R4 do you use? (Check the box.) I thought some flashcarts can't support SDcards that are larger than 2GB... Maybe that's why? I dunno... Have you tried putting files in your card no more than 2GB? Does everything show up?

    Directory listings cannot be too big.

    Split your files into different folders, like by type of game (RPG, FPS, Adventure, Puzzle). You may have reached the limit of the amount of files that can be shown in a single directory.

    Hey I have R4SDHC too with 8GB microSD. Except mine shows all the games but if you put like more than 2GB, it like, it seems to be corrupted inside the R4 since it's just a clone

    Well this kind of thing happened with my CycloDS when i first got it and bought a 16gb card to go with it.
    When i separated all of the games into alphabetical order having each folder being 2 letters (A - B , C - D , E - F , etc..) the problem was fixed, and that was with over 220 games.
    Sadly now i'm using my 8gb card because the 16gb one died on me, but i have to do the same thing on it as well.
    Hope this helps in some way.
