ScraperDetails

RCB supports online scrapers that will fetch information and artwork from various internet sites like thegamesdb or mobygames and offline (local) scrapers that will import information that is already stored on your computer.

This site collects what is provided by certain scrapers (sometimes there is not more information available on the site/API, sometimes we may need to update our scrapers to get more info).

action vs. title vs. screenshot

RCB know 3 different types of screenhots: action, title and screenshot. As the name suggests action screenshots show the game in action, title screenshots just show the title screen at the beginning of the game. In most cases (all except emumovies) there is no distinction between these two. So RCB just uses screenshot as artwork type. If you use emumovies as source for your artwork, you can map emumovies "Snap" to RCBs "action" artwork type like suggested here. You can choose where to show which type of artwork via RCBs Image placing options.
