The built-in scraper in emulationstation is not the best, I've had good luck using this:

https://github.com/sselph/scraper

With a command line like this:

scraper  -workers 20 -rom_dir ~/RetroRig-ES/ROMs/Atari\ 2600/  -output_file ~/.retrorig-es/.emulationstation/gamelists/atari2600/gamelist.xml  -image_dir ~/.retrorig-es/.emulationstation/downloaded_images/atari2600 -image_path ~/.retrorig-es/.emulationstation/downloaded_images/atari2600

Hmmm, interesting. I'll have to check this out this week. I appreciate the help here, I have several projects I do mostly alone, of which the SteamOS-Tools one takes the most time at the moment (and I love doing as well).

Glad you put the work into this. RetroRig gets more right than anything else I've seen.

I'm pretty busy for the next month but I'll try to send PRs for the little tweaks/fixes I come across. I might have to setup a VM or two to try it again from scratch, there were a few packages I had to sneak from other places to get stuff working (most notably gens). Once I verify I'll send some more Issues/PRs.

I'll be sure to check out SteamOS-Tools,
