      Hello,

      Having issues with Steven Selph's scraper. I'm using retropie 4.4 and just installed the scraper. Went ahead and tried to scrape atari 2600 and 5200 roms. Noticed while the script was running I got all errors that said

      "ERR: error processing " then get a " ~.bin: hash not found

      I did this to all the roms it was scrapping, when the script finished nothing was added.
      I attached a screenshot.
      Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

        Steven Selph's scraper uses hashing to uniquely identify a ROM file - the errors you're seeing means the scraper doesn't know how to identify the ROM and cannot scrape it.
        Either your ROMs are not registered in the scraper's list of hashes or your ROMs are non-standard.
        Does it happen only for the atari2600 system or for other systems also ?

          Thanks for replying!
          This happened for atari 5200 and Lynx.

          I'm going to try it on the NES and see what happens.
          Update soon! thanks.

            Looks like the same thing is happening for NES roms.
            Is it possible ALL my roms are not registered or non-standard?
            I used the same roms before i did a fresh install of retropie 4.4 so nothing has changed.

              I just tried the Skyscraper and thats working so I'm not sure why the Steven one isn't.

                Maybe I need to have specific options chosen in the Steven configuration, is there options that I should be using that are recommended?

                  @raulitob You can try changing the scraper source - try screenscraper as the source.
