Unexpected end of JSON input
-
raspberry pi 3 b+
4.5.9
external usb for roms
internal 32gb usb for os
am unable to scrape roms as thegamedb does nothing so fast i cant read the error and screenscraper comes back unexpected end of JSON input. any idea on how to get these scraped to get box arts? -
I'm guessing the JSON errors is from the TheGamesDB, which is currently recovering from being down (https://forums.thegamesdb.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&p=2228) so scraping won't work until they're fully restored.
The ScreenScraper scraper doesn't use JSON at all, so are you sure you're using it when scraping ? -
Yes I had that backwards thegamedb was the json error. And that solves that issue but what about the ScreenScraper it throws the errors to fast to read and then says all was scraped. Is there an issue with the website? I also noticed an issue with UXS as it uses SS too.

ScreenScraper has a limit of requests per day (like TheGamesDB has) - you may be over that limit or simply their servers are too busy and they're only servicing registered users.
