Scraper
A missing illustration in your game list? Onion Scraper can solve that! Using WiFi (so Miyoo Mini+ only), this app allows you to download game covers without even touching your SD card or a computer.
Features
- Automatically download covers from 3 different sources (ScreenScraper, RetroArch and LaunchBox)
- Media type selection (Boxart, 3D, Screenshot, Title Screen, Marquee, Mix)
- Preferred region selection (will give a priority to the covers from your own region)
- Manage ScreenScraper accounts (less errors and faster when registered/logged in)
- Download one cover or all the missing covers of the current console
- Auto conversion and resize of images for the Miyoo Mini
- Find game match even if your rom is not well named thanks to ScreenScraper CRC search

Scraping source
Select where the covers will be searched.
- ScreenScraper is probably the best supplied, it supports all the media types proposed in Scraper and it also allows to search by CRC which provide a lot of additional matches
- LaunchBox offers a fast alternative to ScreenScraper
- RetroArch is quite fast but the match level is low.
