sselph scraper still not working
-
I have seen several threads regarding sselph scraper not working and each time the person was told that it is an issue with Screenscraper being overloaded at the time.
I have an account on SS which allows me 2 concurrent threads and I have had this issue with the sselph scraper for months:
ss: cannot parse response: "invalid character 'F' looking for beginning of value
There are a few issues posted on GH. Here is one:
https://github.com/sselph/scraper/issues/251Both Skyscraper and Skraper are able to scrape from SS successfully. I would use them but haven't found a way for them to save media like sselph does (name-category.png i.e. zaxxon-image.png).
Is there ANYONE in this forum that is using the sselph scraper successfully? If not, can we get it fixed, or, have it removed from Optional Packages and the Wiki?

UPDATE: I was wrong. The Windows version is also failing with the same error. I thought it was successful but it was actually using arcadeitalia as the source.
FYI…the Windows EXE version still works so I guess I can at least use that for now.
