[SOFT] Universal XML Scraper - Windows Scraper for your Recalbox

[eb2016]

Is there a mega noob friendly tutorial for this to help me get started with it?

[azvarel]

@eb2016 translate the tutorial https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/3489/soft-universal-xml-scraper-português/

@screech I'm running test with ethernet cable to see if it goes faster and still very slow, but so far the UXS did not give error and did not close application

[screech]

It's reaaly weird that is so slow...
Can you check your antivirus and/or firewall ? MAybe it's them slowing down UXS...

I just try a scrape on network, and it works fine.. Less than 1sec with a simple screenshot, and between 2 and 4 sec for a classic MIX.

Maybe you can try with the "digimirror" function unchecked (in GENERAL CONFIG)

Hi

thank you for the great work. The scrapper works great... except for zxspectrum games. Not even 1 game is found, and I have thousands of rom files.

When I look for the hash numbers in the log, I cannot find any match in the database.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Is there a way to do this on MacOS? I tried run this scrapper on Wine, but it didn't work.

First of all thanks for the tutorial.

I'm able to run the scraper, and it finds 100% of the roms I went and checked \RECALBOX\share\roms\lynx and I see the downloaded_images folder with the game images, and there is a gameslist.xml file. However when I checked the system the images do not show by any of the games. I tried a restart, and still no luck.

I'm at a loss at how to proceed. I believe when it says "kill emulation station" before scraping that isn't working b/c the frontend is still loaded and showing on the TV screen in the other room while scraping occurs? I'm not familiar with using SecureShell, but I simply connect via network share.

Hello,
I'm trying to use Universal XML Scraper64, but all I get is a fatal error (problem connecting to the database).
Firewall and Antivirus are clear, no idea what's going on. I'm using WIndows 7 64 pro.
Would someone be kind enough to point me the right direction please?
Thanks!

I seem to be having the EXACT same issue. I have used XML scraper several times in the past with 100% success. Now, for the past few days it will just make a bunch of 0kb png files or no files at all.

Something has definitely changed with the newest update or the server or something.

Even the roms that would scrape a few weeks ago no longer scrape
