To scrape cover instead screenshot you can go to "option configuration" and choose what you want as "picture"

You also can try some MIX template (juste relaunch the wizzard and choose a (MIX) profile)

For the scrape speed it depend on many thing.
The number of person scraping at the same time (server overload)
The number of thread you use (default is only 1 thread, but with a registration on http://www.screenscraper.fr and some metada or media submission you will gain very quickly new thread 😉 )

For your info, 1 thread mean : you scrape rom 1 by 1, 2 threads : 2 by 2, 3 threads : 3 by 3, and so on...

Ahh I see comments right sounds good thanks man 🙂 have been searching all over the place and no good results now that I fee confident in this and especially changing the config text on RecalBox I'm going to purchase it to finish off my Arcade prototype.

Yeah there's really not an easy fix for this. I spent days cleaning (culling) my Roms for this issue. Clrmamepro can give you lists that you can then make batch delete files with (or move). Romlister is I believe what I used, as I was able to make plain text lists including removal of roms like trackball, hanafuda, quiz... Another trick if you have on your computer the emulators, is to go through their favorites, fighting, 4 button.....lists, and make those batch files that move or delete the roms (ask the Google how its not hard).
It should go without saying that you use a split set if you didn't already know, otherwise you can't remove the individual builds from the roms. In case you were unaware. Good luck, it just takes some tlc.

Beautiful theme! Well done 🙂

@willieaames yeah USB hardrive + ipac2 directly on raspberry pi3 without hub and it works

@Phantis Thank you very much. I'd been trying for days to figure out for to get that done. I just couldn't figure it out. My first time messing with SSH buy I got it with your help.

That's cool. Can't wait till 4.1 comes out.

I've seen different threads where people have done that. Use the search function and you'll find it.
Nachtgarm didn't give any instructions, it was just an idea.

As the team has not released 4.1 in any manner, and we don't speak portuguese, that "tutorial" is just a hack using an old build. So, i'd say, wait that WE release 4.1 and ask again

Well thanks to @paradadf it worked ... I completely forgot about it ... Thank you very much !

Now I have to set everything up ! 😄

here the recalbox.conf and btw keeping it or removing it makes no different. but i do what to thank you for the help. i really do mean it .

@azvarel sorry !

Anyway you can use Universal Xml Scrapper available there to do custom mix profile referencing several images to display more than just one

@stigzler let's say some people decided to go their own way instead of staying with the mainline team ...

w00t! i solved it and it was the stupidest f**king thing. Turns out i was tinkering around with the power switch scripts (to turn a button into safe shutdown switch) and since i forgot to comment the line back, and the VGA666 was taking all the GPIO pins, it was probably triggering it into shutdown. It was confusing me because i had no screen stating that the script was being triggered into running and the screen went away in a really strange way.

s**t at least i solved without going insane at the pi or the vga or whatever. haven't tested the hdd but it was clear as daylight when i saw the powerswitch.sh being started at the log (should check logs more often i know). thanks anyways!

@Michael-Holst I was using the pi3 internal BT, in 720p, being 2m far from my router ... It runs rather fine. But if i'm further away, that's a no go
