GM all.

 

I just added my Sega 32X ROMS to my GBIII plugin but they are not being properly scraped.  It appears that the scraper is treating them as Sega Genesis:

If I visit this site:  https://api.gamesdbase.com/search.aspx?search=Motocross+Championship+(USA)&system=Sega_Genesis&media=Title&sessionid=B447D86D8732D1DE78B9939A

 

It returns:

<Results>
<Result Found="False" Error="True" MSG="media type not present for this system" TimeTaken="0.015 seconds"/>
</Results>

If I replace the "Sega_Genesis" in that call with "Sega_32X" (https://api.gamesdbase.com/search.aspx?search=Motocross+Championship+(USA)&system=Sega_32X&media=Title&sessionid=B447D86D8732D1DE78B9939A), this is returned:

</Results>
