@Thorr69 This is how i installed it ... download, extract zip, using WinSCP copy to /etc/emulationstation/themes restart Emulationstation and then it will appear in your Themes list

ScreenScraper has a limit of requests per day (like TheGamesDB has) - you may be over that limit or simply their servers are too busy and they're only servicing registered users.

@Dwarfboysim Why don't you ask it here ?

I use a single partition on my 256gb card, if I need to transfer big files I just use a USB stick. Small files I just transfer using Bluetooth. Synaptic package manager is a good tool for newbies to use to get things installed and working. Once you get your desktop running go to the Terminal and install it with sudo apt-get install synaptic Once you get that in there, it can be used to find and install things and will also flag any dependencies for installation too. If you want to use Bluetooth for file transfers I'd recommend installing blueman, and Synaptic can find and install that for you too.

@mitu The display is nice, but we can build better here for the price.

@mitu No problem. I literally just figured it out. I just updated everything, used a different BGM script and in raspi-config, I disabled and enabled the text splash screen, followed by using a custom splashscreen using the OFFICIAL script off emulation station. The custom scripts are trash, absolute trash. I have to be careful. So I have a totally new issue now, non-image related. I used SD Card Formatter to format my Micro SD to exFat, Windows 10 recognizes it....I used Win32 Diskimager to write my image, and now Windows 10 won't recognize it. Any idea how to fix this? I must fix this because I have to create a backup, now that I fixed it. I'd appreciate the help. Thanks.

Awesome! Thanks! I wrongly assumed that because it wasn't officially supported yet the manual process wouldn't apply for some reason.

Glad to hear that!

@mitu - Hey, that's nice, many thanks for the tip! I'll be adding it to my FBNeo list. Sometimes I miss those numbered ROM's at the beginning of the list as 3countb comes before 20pacgal for example, thinking it's not in the list. Computers and their sorts! :)

@mitu said in Scraping in EmulationStation not working..: Please add more info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. What scraping source are you using ? There are 2 options in EmulationStation - TheGamesDB and ScreenScraper - and the former is not functional at the moment. Do you know when TheGamesDB will be functional again? This is from the website: "Update: due to certain family commitments, we were not able to get the latest backup as of yet. for now, we're using a READ ONLY old backup, and the API is also back online, but using the prefix /v1/ which is both to get devs to explicitly make sure old data doesn't just crash their apps, but this prefix will remain as our main endpoint for this api going forward (aka once latest backup is restored)" Is this something we can change? Change it to use the prefix v1, whatever that means xD

Wow! I am literally blind how did I not see that when I looked in the config before... Thanks so much! This works perfectly!

There might be a bug in RetroArch which picks the first resolutions offered by the display instead of the current resolution. If the first resolution is 4k@30fps, you'll see it as a slowdown. You can check the resolution picked by RetroArch by running with verbose logging enabled from the Runcommand launch menu and then looking into /dev/shm/runcommand.log (which you can upload to pastebin.com if you want us to take a look at it). You can forcibly disable the 4K resolutions by modifying config.txt on the boot partition and adding [hdmi:0] hdmi_max_pixel_freq=200000000 [hdmi:1] hdmi_max_pixel_freq=200000000 (Ref: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=255970&p=1561266)

ok, i change the video and keyboard setup in the cfg file of advance mame that was cause the problem..now all is ok.

There was a problem with mame2003 and plus that required the old mame2003/cfg (mame input files files need to be deleted). There are other options if that doent work for you. The only other time ive seen this is on a controller like an ipac thats a keyboard encoder. In this case you change the input type to keyboard only or press the game focus mode button.
