      Is there a means to scrape just one title at a time? I have a huge MAME set and would just like to scrape my Favorites and since that doesn't seem to be a thing (or is that possible too), I'm wondering if there's a way to get Scraper to just do the selected game.

      (Retropie on RP4, Canakit 8GB w/32GB mSD card)

        If you're using the EmulationStation scraper, then press Select on the game you want to scrape and select 'Edit this game's metadata', which opens a dialog that has the scrape option.

        If you're using an external scraper, easiest would be to leave your favorites in the MAME folder or just move then to an arcade folder and scrape the folder. You can then add back the rest of the games.
