Scraper crashing
-
Just had a problem start last night that continues today. I've got recalbox installed on the hard drive of an older HP G56 laptop. The scraper was working fine until I loaded a whole bunch of games last night (8K+) and ran the scraper. It scraped them all but it won't run at all now. Every time I try to run the scraper it opens momentarily and then crashes emulation station to a black screen and I have to either do a hard reset or restart ES from the web GUI. I checked the logs and found this in /var/messages after trying to run the scraper. Doesn't anyone know what would be causing this?

@Jailer Avoid scraping so many games at the same time.
I don't know what you did wrong, but maybe that helps:

OK it took a bit to figure it out but I had a couple of games that extracted into sub folders. Those sub folders were what was crashing the scraper. Once I fixed that the scraper started functioning correctly again.
