I've added the -listxml parameter to fbneo, in-case it might help.  you'll need the latest exe from here:

it's outputted to stdout (an output pipe), so certain rom manager / frontends can get the arcade list directly from fbneo's exe
if you want it as a file, run this command:
fbneo -listxml > listxml.dat

and it'll output to the file listxml.dat
