    If I remember well you shouldn't enter anything in host/port/user/pass etc if you'r using a non Foscam Camera..

    Infact those settings should be greyed out when you choose generic.

    Pan and tilt and motion detection they only work for Foscam too altough it was around a year I used that addon last so things might have changed..follow their thread on Kodi.tv..

    All you have to enter in that category is the snapshot or video feed url..

    There is a <filename>guide.xml</filename> by default meaning that wherever the executable is, the xml will be written there.

    I got my guide.xml, where im lost is where to set in TvHeadEnd where to get that guide.xml

    So probably guide.xml should be in the same folder of WebGrab++.config.xml

    Are you using TvHeadend the normal version from Libreelec repo or the docker version?

    In the normal version you just point to the guide.xml from the tvheadend addon settings and you enable the Internal Xmltv Grabber from Tvheadened UI.

    The docker version I never used sorry so not sure if it's the same or you might need to make some script/cronjob to make it work..

    Did you check the user rights to edit settings?

    configuration/users/choose user/edit/

    tick administrator....change parameters enable all

    Glad you r sorted...ask when you need help..

    That s how it all works...you launch the game from ES but RA does everything..you can make a hot key tough to make the process faster to quit the game and go back to ES.

    Otherwise another option which I prefer is you forget about ES and you setup RO with all the artwork and screenshots by creating playlists and scraping the artwork..looks very neat too and you won t need anything else..

    Ok thanks. I got the script to run but now it's not downloading the scraper. The screenshot is below.

    try to run script as administrator..if it doesn t work try to create a folder on your windows 10 and run script in there so it downloads the scraper and then move scraper to mapped roms folder..

    option 2 will be instead of mapping your nas roms drive try to map the LE mounted emulators folder to windows..

    OK, is not there a passive solution with a big cooler? Is probably a new firmware for the Raspi 4 to regulate the heat something. My but the firmware in the image is already in it.

    Firmware may help regarding heat but not a lot..you might still need another solution...heatsinks...fan or considering removing top of case for airflow..my rpi3b+ still gets hot sometimes over 70 and it's only a tvheadend server+emby server+vnc installed on it..not attached to any monitor.this fan solution is set once and forget till the fan's end of life..

    I think that is the linux/mac version :)

    You need the fastscraper.bat..

    rename this from fastscraper.txt to fastscraper.bat and enter your user and passfastscraper.txt

    Also the script will only download 1 type of image for every rom at 1 go..so just "3b" is enough for image command...if you want to download a screenshot set after just edit the command to "s" and run script again...but before running dont forget to rename the folder of scraped images because the script will replace the already scraped images in that folder...it doesn t create another folder..

    I've tried a different things, but still getting the same result when I try to run the script. The command box opens up, runs through a bunch of lines quickly and then closes. I do not get a chance to actually read what its going through because it flashes so quickly.

    OK..let me try to go step by step...

    From your windows PC go to file explorer_network and browse to your nas folder named roms...right click on that folder and choose "map network drive.."

    Windows should give that folder a drive letter and after that it should show as a drive on My Computer or This PC in windows 10.

    Lets say you have windows 10....go to This PC and open the mapped drive should look something like roms(\\192.168.0.10) (G:)

    Copy the fastscraper.bat to the roms folder...should look like this

    Before you run the scraper just enter the screen scraper user and pass..

    In line 18 of the script enter which artwork you want to download...if you want to download 3d boxart you enter 3b as I showed you earlier...

    If you want to also download screenshots first remove or rename the "downloaded_images" folder so you don t overwrite the downloaded images..

    run the script....it should download sselph scraper and then you will choose which subfolder you want to scrape example nes or snes etc...

    after that it should start scraping

    When done scraping you should have a gamelist.xml and a folder with artwork

    You put the gamelist.xml in /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/game.emulationstation/gamelists/(nes or whatever)

    You can put the downloaded images on your nas in the roms folder...put images in different folders for each emulator..

    the gamelist.xml should look something like this

    gamelist.xml.txt

    My image path looks a bit complicated because I have more artwork then just images for ES ....I m using the same images for ES,RA and AEL..

    Anyway just ask if you get stuck..

    It my roms folder, am I supposed to have a gamelist.xml document with all my roms for each emulator? I remember when I created a folder for each emulator (in Storage/Emulators/Roms) to match the gamelist file structure I didn't carry over the gamelist.xml file for each one.

    Games.xml is created by the scraper in the roms folder for every roms set..after scraping is completed you place it in the addondata/emulationstation/ there s a folder for every rom set game.xml...not at home right now to give you exact location but there is an empty games.xml in each folder..
