@pitch64 that was exactly what was going on. Thanks for the hint, you "saved" me 😀

Bonjour,
Pouvez-vous me préciser si l'attribut 'id' sera dorénavant conservé dès lors que la gamelist est touchée par le système s'il vous plait ?
Merci.

@kilicool salut
Le fichier gamelist.xml est généré et modifié automatiquement par ES, ou part un scrapeur si tu scrappes tes roms. Il sert à donner des information à ES pour les snaps, vidéo, texte, nombre de parties etc... Il n'y a donc aucun fichier tout fait puisqu'il dépend des jeux que chacun possède.
Je te déconseille très fortement de le modifier manuellement. Il est bourré de balises et tu vas le corrompre.
Que comptais tu en faire ?

@ryhawa Either there is a problem with your installation, or with your SD card or USB stick (you did not specify your hardware).
I recommend re-installing Recalbox, do a clean install from scratch, wait for the first boot to the end, and test.

ca date plutot de la 6.0 et les deux sont compatibles, il ne devrait y avoir aucun problemes

Je viens de refaire un essai avec d'autres réglages pour l'AmigaCD32...
Tout est de ma faute....
Je n'avais pas vu que dans l'onglet "medias", si on sélectionne (par exemple) l'image d'un boitier 3D, les réglages en dessous ne valent que pour ces boitiers....
Si on sélectionne "videos", les réglages en dessous ne valent que pour les vidéos également....
Et comme un abruti, j'avais coché pour certain:
Lien avec la liste/Aucun/ Un fichier media par Roms
Et d'autres: Lié à partir du noeud vidéo....
Bref, j'ai foutu mon bordel tout seul, comme un grand 🙂

Hi all,
As touched upon in one of my earlier posts, I was intending to use "ken rename" to bulk rename the game files and the associated image files, then do a "search & replace" in the xml file to refer to the new file names.

Thankfully, nexusone13 tested my files and had the exact same problems as myself, and renamed the files for me, removing the 3 spaces in each file name.

This seems to have done the trick - it looks as if it was the spaces causing the issue and not the "STE" in the filenames.

To be honest, I wasnt sure it would be the STE causing the issue, as there are games out there that have those letters in the file with no problems (eg any game with the word "step" in the title).

Anyway, with the 3 spaces removed, I have booted up the ST emulator, played games, reset the Pi, shut it down, did a quick shut down as well, put the usb stick in my PC and booted up ARRM, and........everything now seems fine !

Thanks for all the help (especially nexusone13), and suggestions everyone.

Thanks for replying. That's fine as long as there's nothing to worry about. It just struck me as odd that there'd be this error after playing when opening the gamelist. Like I say I didn't see it on the last release and thought it worth mentioning, but if you're saying it's all good, that's good enough for me. 🙂

FWIW the scraping for this particular system was done some time ago via Skraper and I'd been manually editing it to trim the collection down to something more suited to the Pi. I thought it was my error at first but noticed the same thing on other systems I wasn't manually editing.

Anyway not to worry, thanks again.

@voljega Merci, c'est ce que je me disais. Je vais faire comme ça tout en gardant un backup des 2 fichiers au cas où

Bonjour @nordicpower & @nexusone13

Wouawouu très bien, j'ai de quoi faire. ^^

Vous me donnez 2 techniques très intéressante qui mérite que je m'y intéresse.
J'avoue ne pas m'y connaitre para-port au shell et python mais grâce a ton lien avec un tuto claire et précis je devrais m'en-sortir. merci @nordicpower

En ce qui concerne ARRM (Another-Recalbox-Roms-Manager) une personne m'en avais déjà parler sur se poste @Moiiiiii
Mais je n'avais pas tout compris ( oui je comprend vite mai il faut m'expliquer longtemps ^^ )

Merci a toi @nexusone13 pour ton modop il me parais aussi très claire et précis je n'ais plus qu'a le suivre.

Je testerais tout ça ce soir une foi rentrer, et j’espère vous donnez de bonnes nouvelles avent 2019^^

Encore merci pour votre aide et très bonne journée à vous ;D

Solved it seems universal scraper wasn't properly killing ES, after using /etc/init.d/S31emulationstation stop, I was able to scrape just fine

@voljega said in gamelist.xml not working on DOS:

@darth said in gamelist.xml not working on DOS:

<path>./DOOM.pc</path>

I just tried it. It worked. Thank you!

Maybe it would be possible for recalbox (in the future) to handle a gamelist <sortname> tag (for example) ?

@juchicesar Olá!
Eu uso e recomendo o ARRM, é uma ferramenta que serve para fazer Scrappe, dentre várias opções, existe um botão com a função "Backup all gamelists", que cria uma pasta "backup" dentro de cada pasta de ROMs, com um backup da gamelist do sistema em questão, incluindo data e hora do backup:

O programa funciona no Windows, e possui apenas os idiomas francês e inglês, mas isso não é um problema.
Como o desenvolvedor é um usuário aqui do Forum, se você tiver dúvidas ou sugestões, pode entrar em contato direto com ele (em inglês) pelo mesmo link acima, ele sempre responde e sempre que possível adiciona o que solicitado pelos usuários.

@djmatrix-hu3 you need to stop/kill ES before adding your new gamelist and then restart Recalbox
