Title: Screenscraper randomly refuses connection in v8.5 premium
Post by: chechu on October 25, 2021, 02:07:22 PM

[Update: Apparently If the rom file name contains specific characters like "&", screenscraper resturns a DB error. Sometimes changing the rom name makes the process work]

Hi there,

I'm trying to download media and metadata from screenscraper but it randomly stops working when reaching specific games in my DB. I'm using a user/password for screenscraper in mGalaxy and I can log in through the website, but I don't know how to solve those random "connection refused"  inside mGalaxy. Emumovies works like a charm, though.

I've seen in this forum that this was a known problem in mGalaxy 8.0 but it's still happening to me in mGalaxy 8.5

Here's the log message I get:

[Info] Screenscraper refused connection: 404

[Error]
-----------------------------------------------------------
Message: Error while connecting to DB
StackTrace:    at (MainWindow , Object , DoWorkEventArgs )
Source: mGalaxy_Runway
TargetSite: Void (mGalaxy_Runway.MainWindow, System.Object, System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs)
-----------------------------------------------------------

Any clues on what may be happening?

Thanks!
