    Is there a video that goes over or explains each of the option sources? For example I dont know the difference between Box 2d and Box 3d or any of the Scraper Settings. Some of my games have fanart or the wrong box art despite fanart being disabled. I have been using the other video posted about manually scraping and its been a tremendous help but I'm the type of person who likes the little details and likes the understand the differences between different sources or settings.

    It's bizarre how a mass game collection can be automated to do such a good job of the previews, but your settings will help it a lot!

    4 of my SFC games in Onion 4.3 were scraped and now just show 'loading' in games library. Unable to delete scraped art from files in OS frontend. Deleted media files for affected games in Imgs directory and reinstalled ROMS. booted up my Miyoo and once I open the directory for the game file, the list is still just populated with 'loading' on each line. Not sure what to do

      So I looked at my network settings and made sure I was connected to my wifi but noticed that even though I was connected it said "No internet connection" in the settings so i just closed out of Batocera and went back in and checked the network settings and it said it was connected. So I ran the scrape and it kicked off.

    Very great video and super basic instructions on how to follow it. I just made my account and also became a patreon this morning about 3 hours ago. How long does it usually takes for it to register you as a patreon so you can start scraping the images? I haven't tried as i read it takes less than 24 hours, but im hoping its faster than that lol. Again, great video.

    • @RetroGamingGuy

      You shouldn't have to do anything with patreon unless they very recently changed their process. You just sign up and should be good to go from their website.

Also, how come when I scrape games that are missing all the details such as the video, game details and so on, they don't scrape? Should I do then individually like you showed in your other video? I'm doing this through retrobat/virtualman

    Is it possible to scrape games without renaming them? Ie keep the existing game name. As sometimes I have multiple versions of the same game and end up with lots of games with the same name. As it's a pain having to go back and manually rename the games title one at a time.

    • @RetroGamingGuy
      @RetroGamingGuy  2 роки тому

      Yeah I actually just did a video yesterday on the channel here on how to manually scrape games. You just search for the game and then you don't have to worry about renaming anything. You wouldn't want to do that for huge collections but here and there it's a easy and effective approach.
