      Hi guys, I finally noticed that the fantastic https://www.screenscraper.fr is back to work, in fact I can do the Skraper from a PC, but not internally in Recabox 7.0.1, why?

      Infinitely thank you for your immense work.

          You need to register user.
          Create account user and edit recalbox.conf

                      I got it to work a few days ago using user and pass, but it crashes very often, if I'm lucky, scraps a couple of hundreads, but eventually I get "Error saving resized image. Out of memory? Disk full?". I still have plenty of gigs on my disk. Running 6.1.1 Dragonblaze on a PI3B+. Is anybody else having this issue? Thanks in advance!

                        no support for 6.1.1, upgrade or user external software like : skraper or arrm.

                              @FoLeY emails are no longer sent. I registered and got an account working without the email step. Login with the credentials you registered with, and will work.

                                @acris no support because 7.0.1 is out? I tried it, and honestly, I felt performance issues on my 3b+, and some games (like Marvel vs Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes in Neo Geo) stopped working, that's why I went back to 6.1.1.

                                    Hi all,

                                    same problem here! What I know, screenscraper.fr and its API is blocked for non-registered users up to now.

                                    The hint with the recalbox.conf to add user credentials (from registration at screenscraper.fr) helps a lot in order to call the API as registrated user, which I will try. Thanks!

                                    The status update to the API on screenscraper.fr says:

                                    "The API is closed to all anonymous users (not registered for free on ScreenScraper) for now.
                                    The CPU occupancy rate of the main server seems very high."

                                    I think, that their new setup with loadbalancing still does not work, since CPU1 = 84% and CPU2 = 12%... (ideally it should be 50%/50%) but I don't know their internals.

                                    Regards,
                                    fredisback81
