@screech said in Manual metadata disappears when games lists updated?:

Hi @Matt-Bauler

Can you tell me an exemple of mismatch and your configuration ?

I'll check what's going wrong 😉

For info, Universal XML Scraper 2 is comming 😉 (Like winter 😛 )

Just started out in NES games as a test and about 80% were correct. Some examples:
Addams Family, The (USA) = Baseball Sumulator 1.000
Advanced Dungeons & Dragons - DragonStrike (USA) = Karnov
Advanced Dungeons & Dragons - Heroes of the Lance (USA) = Kid Kool
Adventures of Lolo 2 (USA) = The Krion Conquest
Adventures of Lolo 3 (USA) = Krusty's Fun House.

Checked the database:

Adventures of Lolo 2 (USA).nes
CRC: 862AB1E5

Checked the game it was scraping instead and the CRC didn't match or anything...no sign of that I can see of why it would pull Thr Krion Conquest instead...

exactly what it expected in the database but scraped a completely different game? I used the default settings and the roms are all verified against no-intro's dat files. I even tried different reorderings of how it scrapes in the advanced settings and that just made it worse.

Also, how do I get the new xmls to stick in the system exactly once they are scraped with the program? I know you need root access and to stop emulationstation or something but don't know the exact way...
