6 years ago OK, so if I understand it right I just have to make the following corrections in es_systems.cfg :
<fullname>amiga600</fullname> should become <fullname>Amiga 600</fullname>
<platform>amiga600</platform> should become <platform>amiga</platform>
alike for amiga1200
but for CD32 should the platform also be amiga or amigacd32 or amiga cd32 ?

Problem: Recommend scraper at Recalbox: screenscraper.fr. The other two scraper aren't works fine (mame etc.). But Screenscrapers needs an information about the platform.
Following happens: Scrape an Amiga-Game: Screenscraper doesn't recognise the Platform: your game could be an Megadrive, SNES, NES ... Game but no Amiga. If the game exists on THIS Plaforms! Only Amiga? No Chance! Next "Problem": You scrape an Game-Cover-Picture from Megadrive, SNES etc. Not pretty!
Solution: The problem results in es_systems.cfg
(same with 1200, CD32)
Fullname: i've changes this to Amiga 600, Amiga 1200 and Amiga CD32 [with spaces after Amiga]. Really needed? It doesn't hurt. Looks better too:) Name: don't change! Internal - to adress themes etc. Platform: CHANGE! change to "amiga"
(not tested: change only "platform"; my es_systems.cfg has new fullname and platform; since your old setup without any problems)
After Change: Scraping will give you now only Amiga-Versions. Game-Cover from CD32 etc. Of course it depends on what is stored in Screenscraper.
Good Example: California Games Your es_systems.cfg: several hits. Megadrive etc. After Change: 2 Hits: California Games and California Games II - both: Amiga
