when I run the Skraper against the NES games, it doesn't return any graphic images or video clips within Recalbox.
I was selected the "Family Computer NES" from the Skrapter app, but the image of the console on the bottom of the app doesn't look the same as the traditional NES console.
I'm thinking that I selected the wrong one, but there is no other 'NES' option in the Skraper menu, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong?
@scavy this is a very good video that explains how to use the skraper:
@oyyodams is there a youtube or instructions web on how to perform the video scraps using that software and also give instructions to which folder I should copy the video clips into on the raspberry pi?
@paradadf which consoles does Video Clips support?
I ran the scraper against my neo-geo and psx roms and make sure 'use composed visuals' was 'on'.. but after the scraping was completed and I rebooted the raspberry pi, the image art for the games only is displayed and not the Video Clip.
Is there another setting I need to turn on in order to display the Video Clip and not the image art?
I installed the latest 6.1.1 Recalbox and I assumed that the video clips for each of my rom games would automatically be there instead of the image art.
Does anybody have a link to the instructions for me to setup the Video Clips for the games for each console I have?
@bkg2k
this requires manual changes to be done in recalbox.. Any plans in a future release to have this already done from a simple UI menu selection?
Are there any plans to separate the MAME rom folder from one into two. One for the Libretro and one for the ADVANCEMAME and update the UI to have two sets of MAME.
Just find a bit of a nuisance to dump all my mame roms into one folder and then go into the Advanced settings-->Advanced Emulator Configuration-->mame and flip it from one emulator to another based upon which of the two the game runs on.
@voljega I'm not doing it incorrectly. I did my research and there are some mame rom games that will work with only one mame emulator and not both, unless you know of a tool that can convert the rom zip file to work with a specific emulator of my choosing.
As a developer I thought it would be possible to do. Since the rom game would not load under one emulator (and I hear that behind the scenes it throws an exception error) that the underlying code would continuously pick the next emulator in the Emulator Advanced Configuration menu of choices until one of them loads the game or it goes back to the main screen because none of the emulators would work.
I have a feature request..
if a game doesn't load using the current emulator that is set in the Emulator Advanced Configuration menu, then it will automatically try the remaining emulators that are available before it breaks you out back to the main screen if none of the emulators work.
For example. MAME has two Emulators in the Emulator Advanced Configuration menu. Some of my mame rom games will load with one of those two emulator options while other mame rom games will load with the other option.
it would be great if it automatically tried all of them so that it prevents me from manually flipping from one to another.
@voljega thanks for 4TB follow up... I'm going to get one and follow your advice on NTFS usage.
Having the Pi provide the power to 4TB MyPassport is good news as well..
cheers!
