      Is there a way to only scrape the games in the favourite list?
      It seams like you can only scape a system or a folder but favourites is neither. Not even the command line tools can do it.

      I have a lot of games and I am not sure my sd card will hold all the videos and images.

        @Quist I thought custom collections were "virtual systems"? However, if you scraped an NES game in favorites, ES would probably want to use the detailed view for NES and the basic view if there was nothing scrapped in other systems.

          if you scraped an NES game in favourites

          How do I just scrape one game?

            In ES You can press select and edit the game's metadata. Then at the bottom there is a button for scraping.
