Hello everybody, First time poster here!

Before I make anything that might resemble a complaint I want to thank all the devs that devote their time and energy to the RCB project. You guys are amazing and deserving of multiple beers. I love RCB and just started using xbmc altogether a few weeks ago.

Now the problem

I've gotten all of my roms and systems working with the exception of that Devil MAME. I can run the roms outside of XBMC just fine, but the games refuse to import into RCB. I copied my log down below and it says there is a 404 error. I'm kinda thinking the scraping service may be offline or something with that but I wanted to post here to see if that is an astute observation or if I'm making some kind of stupid rookie mistake. Please let me know what you think

Thanks,
Jynx

So I solved my problem temporarily at least. by using the wonderful guide i stumbled upon here for those that are having similar issues.

https://code.google.com/p/romcollectionb...AMEOffline

I guess the built in rom scraper is still offline.
