If this did not work, try restarting the pi and repeating the process, waiting a little bit longer
to allow the roms to copy.
Running Games
To run a game, select the game that you want to play by pressing the A button
(or the button that you configured with the function of the A button).
While the game is loading, dont press anything until the game has properly loaded, pressing any
button while the game is loading opens the game configuration settings
If this does happen, just simply select the Launch option, which is second from the bottom, using
the X button instead of the A button, to launch the game as normal.
To exit out of a game, press both the configured start and select buttons to bring you back to the
emulators game list.
To start scraping, select the Scrape Now option and change the settings to suit how you would like
to scrape the site. Once you have set the options to suit how youd like to scrape, select the Start
option at the bottom of the mini menu.
Depending on your choice for the last setting, you can either walk away, to do whatever activity you
prefer over watching a screen do things, or you will have to stay and approve the scrapes for the
roms.
To stop the scraping, simply select the Stop option at the bottom of the screen as the scraping is
occurring which will cancel the scraping.
Once the scraping has been completed, restart the Pi.
NOTE: If you dont know how to reboot the Pi safely, read the Restarting and Shutting Down the
Pi section of the manual.
The Thumbnails Only setting will either allow the pi to download thumbnail images to show or
larger files. Having this enabled makes the pi install smaller files, leaving more space on the Pi for
your games.
The Max Image Width option is set automatically to fit the size ratio of everything in the emulator
screen. You can change this is you would like a smaller or larger image to be shown when a rom is
highlighted.
The Scraper option allows you to change the scraper website. This is initially set to the default
website which is thegamesdb.net.
The Rom Names option will either scrape for the names of the roms on the Pi (the No-Intro
option) or scrape for the rom names on the selected scraper website.
The Gamelist option either lets you replace the rom files with the scraped files (the Overwrite
option) or add the scraped rom files to the roms previously copied onto the pie (the Append
option).
The last option gives you the option to update the scraper to the latest version, this can be done
whenever you deem appropriate.
Once the selected systems have finished scraping, select the OK button and then exit out of the
Scraper and Setup/Configuration menus to return to the first menu but using your right arrow key
(or whichever key is configured with the right dpad function) to highlight the Cancel option,
select this option using the enter key.
Once you have returned to the first menu, select the Perform Reboot option (the last option on
the list) to reboot the Pi.
After the reboot, go into the previously scraped emulator screens and the roms list will have moved
to the right allowing room for the descriptions and images on the right.
