If you obtained the roms from CD-i Link they will have names recognized by CD-i Emulator.
If you obtained them from elsewhere, they need to have extension .rom. If you have multiple models, use names of the form cdinnnx.rom where nnn is the player model number and x indicates the player phase (subversion) or slash version; this will allow you to use the -model option (or a future GUI) of CD-i Emulator to select the player model you want to emulate.
CD-i Emulator is able to determine the player model and version of ROM files automatically just like CD-i Link can, but this is expensive and therefore it does it only with the ROM file already selected for emulation. The selection of the ROM file is based on the file names of the available ROMs (it generally prefers the highest-numbered model available).
More information then you'd ever want to know about CD-i player models and versions and how to determine them from a ROM file can be found in the CD-i Types section of my web site.
