Skyscraper - add Videos

Hyperlord

Hi Community,

maybe I'm too stupid but I can't figure out how to run skyscraper to scrape, for example, my entire SNES games again but this time adding videos.

I tried "Skyscraper -p snes --videos --updatedb --verbosity 1

But all I see is that nothing get's changed and VIDEO is big red "NO".

What am I missing here?

Thanks in advance!

... okay, I tried to run Skyscraper without arguments (in Wizard-mode kind of) and selected "video", no it worked. So I run it like this for all the different emulators now.

For faster solution, please reply ;-)

Kind regards

@Hyperlord You're supposed to run skyscraper with an online scraping source to get any data. Your command line doesn't show that. So you should run it like

Syscraper -p nes -s screenscraper --videos

If you don't specify a scraping source (-s), then it will query the LocalDB, which might not have any videos scraped.
