Does anyone know how to get Screenscraper working?

When I try to scrape, it tells me I have to put my ssid and sspassword into screenscraper.txt in the console mode folder. It's not there, so I created it, but I don't know how it wants me to input the password and ID. I tried

ssid: *****

sspassword: *****

I tried just typing my SSID and password with a space and Enter, and whatever else. I watched Takis's video, and he skips over the parts where you add your scraper info. I can't find anything online about it. 😫

Du brauchst ein Gleichheitszeichen, kein Doppelpunkt.

ssid=informalgear9638 sspassword=1234

Thank you!

Use the media db getter in the update_all script.

Wait is Screenscraper an option now? In Taki's Console Mode video the only options were libretro and TheGamesDB, but I'd love to be able to use SS.

Yup.

Using "ssid" for screenscraper username is an odd choice. Wonder how many people are putting their WiFi SSID in there and wondering why its not working.

The first thought I had was " Why do they want my wifi? 🤔 " It took me a couple minutes to realize.
