Joe35car Posted June 10, 2023 Author Share Posted June 10, 2023 No comments? Is this post in the right section? I would think scraping the right artwork/videos would be some what important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Beats Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 I'd have to look into the code for the order things happen to see if something is getting changed after the fact. To start off with though we grab the game title directly from MAME and then that's used in the match process. For the games you are mentioning aren't scraping correctly could you tell me what it's scraping to now, and what you feel it should be scraping to?

It pulling the Argus for rom Argusg. The snap video and theme videos are correctly named in Emumovies FTP. Also the snapshots are wrong. In the attachment below the 2nd video is correct but plays the first one for the other game. If I delete it will delete the theme video for the correct game.

C-Beats Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Can you provide a link to the LaunchBox Games DB page it's getting linked to now, and a link to the page you think it belongs on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
