Description
Many games (like NES or SNES) can be perfectly scanned if the rom is inside a .ZIP or .7Z file, it creates the playlists and everything works good
For a strange reason this is not the case of the PSP roms, there's .ISO files that are correctly added to the playlists, that if i zip them, the playlist with them is not created (and I have see the progress bars saying that is reading inside the .zip file)

Research direction
Start by reproducing a PSP .ISO scan from an uncompressed file and from inside a .ZIP or .7Z archive, then compare the scan path with the working NES and SNES cases. Trace the ROM scanning and playlist-generation entry points involved in archive contents; done means archived PSP games are added to playlists like uncompressed PSP images.
