Fist I just put on a USB sick to test. It worked so well out of the box with zero configuring that I installed it permanently and now use the PC daily when before it was collecting dust. I started using the Scraper feature to get images and manuals for my collection and I learned a trick. Since I tether to my phone I grab a new IP every time I go in Airplane Mode. Setting the Scrape From to THEGAMESDB ever time I hit my quota.. grabbing a new IP allows another set amount to download. 16,000 ROMs takes a while. Out of the box everything worked... quite impressed with this little super fast OS. Plays retro games wonderfully. N64, PS1 works just fine on my old PC. If you are into retro gaming you might like this OS and has become my media center. https://batocera.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Below the Scaper function and the error you get when you need a new IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
