How to replicate the problem:- Set thegamesdb as the scraper
- Select the systems you want to scrape
- Scrape now
OR
Select a single game you want to scrape, Edit the games metadata, select scrape
Problem: Up until Saturday the 18th I was getting results from thegamesdb
As of the 18th I get no results for any game.
Just me or is anyone else having this issue? Screenscraper still works, but it doesn't have some of the games i'm trying to scrape.
-
TheGamesDB site has a monthly quota for requests - I think 5000 (?). If you scraped a lot of games, then you probably went over that quota and your requests are ignored.
The scraper works fine - so there's not a issue with the site or EmulationStation.
