      Hello. New to RetroPie. I've added my games and ran the scraper. Found errors within some of the games' metadata from Scraper. When trying to edit the games metadata or trying to clear images I am constantly getting thrown to:

      terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
      what (): STF::bad_alloc
      aborted

      When this happens no keyboard functions available and have to pull power.

      I tried expanding file system again but didn't help.

      Any help would be greatly appreciated.
