And great that you contribute there! You could already enable scraping of boxfront images if you remove the xml comment in the scraper file "02 - thegamesdb.xml" (RCB install dir/resources/scraper). I disabled this some releases ago as it is not platform safe atm. So it may happen that you get Playstation covers if you want to scrape SNES games etc.
that way, I can control what gets imported by adding to its website, which will also have screenshot support in the future.
ShadeBlack Wrote:my question there is if it's possible to enable solo mode with just that Rom collection, so it only does it with the n64 roms?Good idea. Will think about this.
ShadeBlack Wrote:this is because I had pokemon as Pokémon with the accent. as soon as it found this, the scanning stopped. I renamed it and hey-presto everything's fine.Hmmm, I thought we have ironed out all this encoding problems. But I will add this to the list again.
Xedar Wrote:Hi, i cant get it to work, script just halts with an error in right lower corner, is it due to my build? "PVR"Looks like it has problems with Camelot/Dharma detection. It has problems with some distros that the revision can't be determined. I have already changed this behaviour in SVN, but did not have the time to pack a new version for downloading. I hope I will be able to do this in the next 2-3 days. This version should work on your system.
Ubuntu 10.10.
If you don't want to wait, you can edit the file "util.py" (RCB install dir/resources/lib) manually.
Replace this code (line 278-291):
Code:
def getRevision():
rev_re = re.compile('r(\d+)')
try: xbmc_version = xbmc.getInfoLabel('System.BuildVersion')
except: xbmc_version = 'Unknown'
try:
xbmc_rev = int(rev_re.search(xbmc_version).group(1))
print "XBMC Revision: %s" % xbmc_rev
except:
print "XBMC Revision not available - Version String: %s" % xbmc_version
xbmc_rev = 0
return xbmc_rev
with this one:
Code:
def getRevision():
return 30000
Very hacky, but I guess it should work.
