      I want to thank everybody for helping me my questions, how i'm getting the hang of everything and figuring allot of cool stuff i didn't know. Now i have a question about the storage space of cover art, right now at the time of writing this i'm doing megadrive and i'm about 500 games in, and i was looking at the properties and it says 500 mb disk size. is that the true size because it doesn't make sense because looking around before i came here. i saw a post on retropie and somebody said they had 15,000 scraped with a 16 gb card. but from the size on disk if i would do all 16,652 games that would be 16 gb wih cover arts. is the size on disk lying? or is the images really taking up that much space

        @realazyria I don't know how you're using sselph's scraper, but it can resize pictures. If you download a full HD image for every rom, this will take up some place, yeah

          @substring using it it the only way it can be used. i solved this by my self 6 hours later. found that it wasn't the true size that the picture was taking

            @realazyria there are many ways to encapuslate sselph's scraper : fastscraper (you already know about it) and fullscrape, for example

                @realazyria read the fullscrape post, or ask paradadf for the fastscrape version
