Any idea why scrapers keep giving me corrupted image files?

ricardo85x Wrote:HiYes, thats right. The last time I checked for it the online sites that I use to scrape did not list FBA as separate system. So I did not add it in RCB. I could do so but there will be no online scraping for these games.
I can't find the option to add Final Burn Alpha(FBA) games.
I am using the the android and the Mac OS build.
thanks

I am running RCB 2.0.17 on OpenElec 4.0.7 in combination with RetroArch. Somehow I cannot run any ROM from the XBMC GUI using RCB. When I launch a ROM directly from the terminal it works flawless, but running from RCB in XBMC results in a black/blank screen with a cursor in the middle.
I checked the XBMC log and it seems that RCB is adding a ._ before the rom file name when running the command to launch:
Code:21:01:39 T:140309379925760 NOTICE: RCB_INFO: cmd: "/storage/.xbmc/addons/emulator.retroarch/bin/retroarch.sh" snes9x_next "/storage/emulators/roms/snes/._supermarioworld.smc"
When I remove the ._ from this command and run it directly from SSH, the ROM launches!
Does anyone know where to fix this? What I already did:
- Double checked the executable + parameters
-- /storage/.xbmc/addons/emulator.retroarch/bin/retroarch.sh
-- snes9x_next "%ROM%"
- Changed my roms to low characters without spaces
- Checked add-on settings and rom collection settings
- Checked some xml files in the ~/.xbmc/addons/script.games.rom.collection.browser/resources folder but no luck yet..
Would be great if someone could help me out!
Thanks advance!

hi
are you using mac os x?
._ is a hidden file.
you could delete all the hidden files with this command:
find /storage/emulators/roms/ -type f -name "._*" -delete

In this case it will just crash while exporting the nfo and does not write the complete file. This issue is already on my list (for some time as you already have discovered).
So I have played a little bit with export and import of nfo files. What I have noticed seems to be quite strange: when I change the description of the game quite drastically (i.e. completely from english to italian), the edited nfo file is not imported back into the RCB (using the LOCAL NFO scraper); when I edit it partially (i.e. change just few words in the description), it is imported back correctly and the changes are in fact displayed on the screen.
Does the LOCAL NFO parser (or something else) make some check on the nfo file dimension when importing it back?
Please let me know...I'm quite confused!

Hmm interesting. Yes i copied the roms from OSX to the OpenElec machine. So you mean that RCB will add the hidden files to the library instead of the original rom files? That would be strange. I am going to test it right away when I am back home! Thanks for the quick reply, appreciate that.

Is there a different emulator I can use?
