@ByteThis it's definitely not the scraper. When i'm connected to the internet it runs great. But my pi won't stay connected longer than like 15 minutes. I was told to disable ipv6. Which I thought I did...But I got kicked off again. Reinstalling.

@BuZz Good to know, thanks.

@scousetrooper In this case, the disc usage might come from Skyscraper's cache. Try moving the cache from $HOME/.skyscraper/cache to your disc - besides moving the actual folder, you'll have to amend $HOME/.skyscraper/config.ini to point it to the new location - see https://github.com/muldjord/skyscraper/blob/master/docs/CONFIGINI.md.

@MBRetrocade said in Issue with scrapes:

arcadedb provided a video, but why are we only getting the audio of the video? I have other systems with videos and images, the image will show and then the video will play just fine. So it isn't in the theme? What could be causing this? HELP!

See this recent topic for a similar issue - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/26257/ - some videos are not compatible with vlc/omxplayer and need conversion.

@Mr-Berlin
O well.
Thank you for the help.
I guess for now I will download my content manually till screenscraper works again.

I use openretro for images, and screenscraper for info. Then execute de "generate game list"

@Efriim said in Error parsing xml Scraper EmulationStation.:

Sorry for the spotty details, wasn't sure if there was a quick and easy fix for this thing.

There isn't, the message is just a parsing error, indicating that the scraper site hasn't responded with a well formed XML message. It's because - at the moment - scraping from ScreenScraper doesn't work for un-registered users. You'll have to use an external scraper (see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Scraper/) that supports scraping with a registered account or scrapes from a different source.

@mitu said in Scraper accuracy?:

@MisterMints This corresponds to 4.4.4 - you should have skyscraper as a module in the experimental packages section. Did you also update the packages ?

I did, but still "no game found"

This happens whether I go via the scraper option from pressing start and doing it on a system by system basis, or edit this games meta data on individual ROMs.

I have go sselph and skyscraper working now so it's no big issue and they both seem to be very accurate so far

I broke the scraper so it was hidden. Update RetroPie-Setup and it should back again. Thanks @mitu for the heads up.

@caricolt9900 use selph scraper and change the site to something other than thegamesdb.net

@dakiluxa Remove the /opt/retropie/supplementary/golang folder and re-try the scraper installation, it should re-install the Go version used by RetroPie. I've seen this kind of errors, due to a mis-installation (or corrupted install) of the Golang package.

@UDb23 Yes, this way if you use the scrape all option within the ES scraper it will skip it automatically. This is the boxart available on thegamesdb.net site.
