Sorry I missed that. Anyway, here's my old Setup.

Please add the info for the current setup.

EDIT: and add the installation info - how did you install and what image did you use to install RetroPie.

@ANDRELLVS Thanks for adding an explanation to your tutorial about what the batch file actually does.

@baviaannl said in Lost Gamelist.xml file on PSX:

That file you requested is too big for pastebin, its roughly 6mb in size, is there any information in particular you'd like me to pull off of the file?

I don't know, can you spot any obvious errors related to your gamelist ?

@frankenbenz Good to hear. If there was a general issue with the scraper install we definitely would have heard more about it by now.
Sometimes things just get screwy for no obvious reason. Computers, eh?

@ChristianG

I don't think so...

@Xanathar Awesome!

When I first started with Retropie thegamesdb.net went down for a day... then a couple days... then a week. Turns out their hosting service cut them off for excessive sessions without any warnings so they have to raise enough $$ to pay for a dedicated servers.

The service does go down from time to time as well, so it's not uncommon to see what you are seeing. That's part of why I still scrape from the command line: scraper -append -thumbs_only once you are in the correct roms directory will update any new roms in that directory.

@BuZz
My sincere apologies about the formatting BuZz. I did read that first and had full intentions of following it, but in my haste to post totally forgot about it. Again, my apologies!

I think you're correct with the date and time thing. I noticed this before and tried to fix it, and with that too now, I am having issues.

I've googled and followed a ton of ways to try and get the time to sync, but no dice.
I suppose that should be a separate thread, and if that is what you want, just let me know. I'm totally at a loss as to whats going on with this Pi. I've just installed the image again and no luck changing the date, OR using the scraper.

For the date/time I've tried:

Setting the timezone in raspi-config (didn't stick after reboot)

Tried these to no avail:
