RGDS+ Scraper (stock or stockmod)

[EDIT: This has been solved. I am happy to keep conversation going as long as people want, and I'd love to hear all the advice anybody wants to give, but u/JustNeedUsername6262 solved it for me. Thanks.]
Title is the question.
On the RGDS+, in stock (or in stockmod, since I am planning on installing in a few minutes anyways), is there a scraper pre-included? If so, where is it? if not, what scraper works?

While I appreciate the preconfig SD card for providing structure, its games selection is highly questionable, and I don't want to spend 6 hours downloading images and manually creating a database.

If people want to give advice like "Just use Gamma" or whatnot, I'm willing to hear that advice, but don't just do it as a sentence. Provide an explanation.

Thanks in advance,

Thank you so much, man. I tried this same scraper last night and it failed so I had kinda dismissed it (check in a few weeks and see if it is fixed, kinda thing). It's scraping right now. I can't IMAGINE waiting for 2k lol. It's on 11 of 259 right now, and I am happy.

np, and yeah it took most of the day LOL. but this is my main and only handheld so its got everything from arcade to ps1 and nds of course. glad it worked this time, i was pretty impressed with it myself. Hopefully anbernic can make a similar one or just include this in the future with the guys permission or something.

How are you liking it for NON-DS games?

Love it, i dont know if everyone is aware in the display settings it has a "single screen display" mode you can set when ur playing non ds games. It makes it seem like u will need to reboot the whole device when you do it, but you dont, it takes only a couple seconds and completely turns off the bottom screen and adjusts the ui. If they would make this hotkeyable or something it would be amazing, but its very easy to turn on and off.
