      When trying to scrape cover art using the built in scraper I get this error. I’ve no idea how to solve it. If anyone has any ideas I’d be very happy to hear them.

      Thanks in advance.

        Scraping seems to have stopped working in the last couple of days. Worked fine for me until the weekend, then suddenly nothing.

        Raspberry Pi 3b and 8GB Raspberry Pi 4, both running Retropie 4.7.1 installed from scratch using Raspberry Pi Imager, with wired keyboard, wireless mouse and double arcade joystick attached.

          @JimmyFromTheBay at least for thegamesdb, that url now is just showing some "This domain was recently registered at namecheap.com" message... switching to ScreenScraper.fr still works (at least yesterday it was working).

            TheGamesDB site is now back online, scraping should work again with this source in EmulationStation.
