      Hi,

      I'm not sure if this is a know issue, but I have used Steven Selph's scraper on my 4.3.2 image (Pi3) and it has installed all the .mp4's in the image folders for each system and generated the gamelist.xml in the roms folder, but I don't get any videos for the Arcade or Nes systems. Others like the Megadrive, Gameboy work.

      I'm using the Carbon theme, but have tried other themes that support videos and they do the same. The image folders also have jpg's and png's as I use to use the box art instead.

      Any ideas how I might be able to rectify this?

      These are the settings I used to scrape:

          Scraper doesn't like some formats. I had a gamegear set in 7zip and it wouldn't scrap other then one zip file I had there. Lucky I had that game otherwise I wouldn't noticed it.
