Thanks for your response.  So what this comes down to is that it isn't going to work until the next version is released, correct?

It does sound that way. However I was told an update that will include Apple II is imminent. I asked about the Apple II over a week ago, and the powers that be told me the update would be in about a week. And that was 10 days ago. So I am expecting it any day now. And then all will be right with the world again.

My issue is with MAME.  Does that make a difference?

Im hoping to revive this topic.  I was using mGalaxy perfectly for a while then the PC I was using started having problems.  I built a new dedicated emulator pc and am setting it up.  Im trying to run the screenscraper but am getting an error "Error while connecting to DB" when trying to download everything.  The downloads will start and I get maybe 10 images then the error appears.  Im on V8, premium.  I have my Screenscraper username and password inputed (confirmed correct).  I have the same with emumovies.

Can anyone help me with this?

Have you tested again since?
Yes, there were some connection problems with Screenscraper (due to a change on their side)...but this has been solved in the latest version downloadable from the site...and no similar problems with Emumovies.
