Description

Created .scummvm files with short names and most games were added successfully in playlist for ScummVM.

Though, some are missing and I didn't have any success adding them manually either:

3 skulls of the toltecs
Barton Attack
Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars
Cruise for a corpse
Eco Quest 1
Flight of the Amazon queen
I have no mouth and I must scream
Indiana jones and the last crusade
Lands of lore
Leisure suit Larry 7
Nippon Safes inc
Police quest IV
Space Quest II
The Bizarre Adventures of Woodruff and the Schnibble
The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel

Are they missing in db, is there a workaround?

All games are added and working in ScummVM when launched from core and db etc are all updated in RA.

Research direction

The issue lists 15 ScummVM games missing from playlists and says they work when launched from the core. Start by locating the repository's existing ScummVM content data entries and compare their naming with the listed games and current database data. Done means the affected games are represented consistently and can be added to playlists, but no specific file or test is named.
