            @MartinS Same thing here, just hangs and does nothing. Auto configuration seems to work fine. I am only trying to scrape a single system.

              Sorry to be late :S (christmas and familly duty)

              Ok, There is a problem with my last change on SSH command :S I'll correct that in the version I release today ;)

              (For the other error : it's due to the server migration. Normally all is ok right now ;) )

                The new updated fixed all of the issues for me, thank you very much. :)

                Also is there a list that tells what the "profiles" are? I don't understand the difference between
                Retropie (Mix) and Retropie [Rom folder] (Mix)

                  Last night, I was using the scraper for the whole night (full system scrap). After getting up this morning, I saw the software crashed and did about 30% of the job. Nothing updated on retropie.

                  Now I try to restart the software, but everytime I get an "Universal XML Scraper fatal error! (err_SystemList)

                  Tried rebooting, redownloading, deleting settings files, still can't get the software to launch anymore.

                  Any idea ?

                  Thanks

                    I just started using this scraper yesterday, and everything seemed fine, I tried to run it this morning, and I get the same error.

                              I experimented a bit yesterday with the Scraper and using the MD5 hashing for Sega CD. It seemed to work, but gave a timeout error after every single file. Maybe it wasn't really working, and the results it found was through a name search.

                              Who's Scruffy Looking?

                                Hello

                                I can't make it work sadly.

                                The ES is well killed (I presume) , paths are correct (I choosed the rom path for gamelist and downloaded images) but here is the result of scrapping :

                                alt text

                                This is for n64 but it's the same for all systems

                                Do you know what I'm doing wrong ?

                                Thanks.

                                        Sorry.

                                        We migrate both server and new website/db version at the same time...

                                        And it wasn't a good Idea at the end of year (a lot's of new user)

                                        So we had massive request on the new server aren't really ready for such a huge number of scraper..

                                        We are working hard to gain back stability. And it seems it's going well today.

                                        I can go back to UXS and correct some "new" probleme introduced with the new version..

                                        But for information, the new DB allow more things and new data / media so you can see very soon the new improvement... (exemple : we already have some Brazilian media, and now UK isn't the same as US)

                                        Thank you for your patience. We are doing what we can ;)

                                          Are you guys running the scraper from a virtual machine? I had this problem using the app on windows 10 on my mac with VMware fusion. I just now tried running it from my real PC and it's working perfect.

                                            @vbs If that's the case, I'll just stick with my current batch of scrapes until Carbon is updated to allow videos. Because I have a bunch of systems installed on my RetroPie, I pretty much have to use Carbon. I don't like it, but it's the only theme that seems to work.

                                            Carbon theme with video support:

                                            Enjoy.
