---------------------------+----------------------------
 Hello Everybody.
 ScummVM doesn't detect my version of Broken Sword 1. I have German DVD
 Trilogy collection for Microsoft Windows.

 First some Information:
 OS: openSUSE Leap 15.6
 Kernel: 6.4.0-150600.23.17-default
 {{{
 # scummvm --version
 ScummVM 2.7.1 (Aug  4 2023 12:00:00)
 Features compiled in: TAINTED Vorbis FLAC MP3 ALSA SEQ TiMidity RGB zLib
 MPEG2 FluidSynth Theora A/52 FreeType2 FriBiDi JPEG PNG GIF TTS cloud
 (servers, local) TinyGL OpenGL (with shaders)
 }}}

 Everything worked well on openSUSE Leap 15.5 with ScummVM 2.5.1. I already
 played more than half of the game and made a backup of save directory.
 Then I decided to update to openSUSE Leap 15.6 with ScummVM 2.7.1. Now I'm
 not able to add the game.

 I got error message:
 {{{
 ScummVM could not find any game in the specified directory!
 }}}

 Then I found [https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php?title=Broken_Sword_1
 ScummVM Broken Sword 1 Wiki]:
 {{{
 Note: Since ScummVM 2.7.0 the folder structure from the original media
 needs to be preserved. Older versions of ScummVM allowed to move files to
 the top level folder, while they now need to remain in their respective
 subdirectories. If your game is no longer detected by ScummVM, you may
 need to move back the files to their original subdirectories.
 }}}
 Ok, no problem, I tried to rearrange my files.

 Now I get other error message:
 {{{
 The game in 'sword1_ger' seems to be an unknown game variant.

 Please report the following data to the ScummVM team at
 https://bugs.scummvm.org/ along with the name of the game you tried to add
 and its version, language, etc.:

 }}}

 Please see attachment for my directory structure.

 Very sad if I'm not able to finish the game.
