      I'm having a problem setting up the SNES roms. When I load them, they appear as a duplicated list:

      The games do work if I select them. The scraper doesn't recognize the roms. If i try to delete a duplicate, the game stop to work. The gamelist.xml in the SNES rom folders appears to be empty. The other system seems to work fine. I'm on Recalbox 4.0beta4, Raspberry pi3.

        @krantz Which scraper doesn't recognize the roms? Have you only upload the roms to your sd card without touching anything else? Did you touch gamelist.xml?

          I uploaded the roms directly with an SD card reader, without touching anything else. I opened the gamelist but haven't tried to modify it. Yes, now I can scape using gamesDB.

            @krantz Sorry but I don't understand you very well. Why don't you delete every snes rom from the folder (gamelist.xml is empty by default) and copy your roms again. There is no reason why a single game should appear twice.

              I tried to delete and copy the roms again many times, but this doesn't seem to resolve the problem.

                Hello
                you need to kill emulationstation process to delete gamelist.

                in ssh : killall emulationstation

                delete gamelist.xml

                /recalbox/share/roms/snes/

                and reboot your raspberry with command line : reboot
