I just fount that it is a bug
https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/24634/scraper-does-not-download-coverart-when-there-is-a-colom-in-the-gamename/4
As a workaround I fix it by manual downloading the files form http://screenscraper.fr and the updates on the gamelist.xml using vim ;
or could use https://www.skraper.net/ to scrape it ...
I have noticed that some scrappings fail, looking for the cause I noticed that the game name usually has special characters that cannot be used in filenames, eg:
Alundra 2: A New Legend Begins
root@pi4:/recalbox/share/roms/psx$ cat gamelist.xml |grep "Alundra 2"
<path>Alundra 2.PBP</path>
<video>media/videos/Alundra 2 : The New Legend Begins_9e0a5dda8df9bee0be15dce4a0df3677.mp4</video>
<image>media/images/Alundra 2 : A New Legend Begins_126d6c6f357139b618712655ecbb71a8.png</image>
<name>Alundra 2: A New Legend Begins</name>
My conclusion is that even though the rom was found and the metadata saved in gamelist.xml the files cannot be saved because they use characters incompatible with the filesystem.
I understand that it is possible to optimize the scrapping code using the ROM name in the image and video name to avoid this problem.

Here is my question, is this adjustable?
@zing @Pitch64 ,
I try it many times with different cables , that works on PI OS and not on Recallbox 7.2.1.
Is it a bug ?
@zing
I notice in pi4 documentation the need of turn the CRT-OUT on with enable_tvout=1 , based on it my configuration there are some lines on /boot/recalbox-user-config.txt
hdmi_force_hotplug=0
hdmi_ignore_hotplug=1
enable_tvout=1
sdtv_mode=0
disable_overscan=1
sdtv_aspect=1
sdtv_aspect=3:4
global.videomode=default
ref : https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt/video.md
But it is not working on 7.2.1.
Note: the same sets using PIOS works as expected ( it means no hardware or cable problem).
What is wrong guys ?
Ok ,
I can reimage that ,
I will proced it and return the result in next days...
Thanks for your support.
@OyyoDams follow the support file for evaluation

In any way I should notice the it's jammed in the recallbox-next Theme any one more can be load.
Looking for the problem i found some thing that appear a hardconde:
root@RECALBOX:~/.emulationstation# cat /recalbox/scripts/recalbox-themes.sh
#!/bin/bash
upGradeToRecalboxNextTheme() {
tmpFile=/tmp/es_setting.cfg.tmp
# Set theme as recalbox-next + get default values from the share_init version
# 1st rename ThemeSet value to recalbox-next
# 2nd remove the last tag
# 3rd add the required lines from the share_init version
# close XML
(
sed 's+name="ThemeSet" value="recalbox"+name="ThemeSet" value="recalbox-next"+' /recalbox/share/system/.emulationstation/es_settings.cfg |
sed '/</config>/d' ;
grep -E 'name="ThemeMenu|ThemeSystemView|ThemeIconSet|ThemeGamelistView|ThemeColorSet"' /recalbox/share_init/system/.emulationstation/es_settings.cfg ;
echo "</config>"
) | xmllint --format - > $tmpFile
# If all of this has succeeded, itmeans the resulting file is valid and we can upgrade the user file
if [[ $? == 0 ]] ; then
cp $tmpFile /recalbox/share/system/.emulationstation/es_settings.cfg
return 0
fi
return 1
}
if grep -q 'name="ThemeSet" value="recalbox"' /recalbox/share/system/.emulationstation/es_settings.cfg ; then
recallog "Upgrading theme to recalbox-next"
upGradeToRecalboxNextTheme && recallog "recalbox-next Succeeded !" || recallog "recalbox-next failed !"
fi
It starts changing from Galisteo_V2.3 to recalbox-next an in this theme it becomes hanged. I try to change to recalbox and back to Galisteo_V2 without success..
It's the official one with no customization at this point.
It backs by start;restart command by Recalbox-Manager , only ES process die and don't start again from switch theme operation , and even restarted the theme continues the same.
any error noted
