      Hi guys,

      Facing some issues scraping using Universal XML Scraper (latest one 64 bits).
      At the end the images have been downloaded, the folder is created, but when I reboot it, nothing has been changed on my recalbox.
      I tried using auto-conf and choosing the options manually (for both methods I first killed the emulationstation).
      Any idea?

      Recalbox: 4.0.2
      Emulator: MAME

      Thank you very much

        Are you 100% sure ES was killed? That's usually the reason for the behaviour you described.

          What I do is to connect via ssh as root and execute the following command:
          /etc/init.d/S31emulationstation stop
          As result I get black screen on my TV.

          I realized that is possible to do similar process in my computer (replacing recalbox folders by pc folders), but then I will need to move the downloaded images / gamelist manually, where exactly I need to place these files to execute this manual process successfully?

          Thanks!

            You copy everything into their respective roms/<systemname> folder. But again... ES must be properly shuted down (exactly as you are currently doing it).
            I hope you are using Windows, right?

              You were right, the problem was related to the ES, I tried again and worked. Thank you!
