    Brilliant,
    Thanks for letting me know so quickly. I will install and configure these emulators outside of Retropie using sudo apt-get install.
    I will keep tracking this in case they may be ported to the XU4 in the future.

    Thanks all!

    @rush Which version of xbox driver are you using ? Use xpad (it comes pre-installed with RetroPie), don't use xboxdrv, it has issues atleast with Kodi.
    If you still have problems, post your Kodi log:

    @techwiztime Sorry for the ignorance, how would you do what @rpf16rj did in his script? That is putting a text file with the game name. For example what I am trying to accomplish is I have a non-steam game let's call it ABC, I can't add it as a nonsteam game in the steam client and use your script as it will not launch the game. So I figure the alternative was to have a ABC.TXT file and let moonlight run it directly.

    Thoughts? Thanks in advance!

    Figured out how to do it indirectly.

    In \retropie\configs\all\emulationstation\es_systems.cfg
    <system>
    <name>mame-mame4all</name>
    <fullname>Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator</fullname>
    <path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-mame4all/roms</path>
    <extension>.zip .ZIP</extension>
    <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 SYS mame-mame4all %ROM%</command>
    <platform>arcade</platform>
    <theme>mame-mame4all</theme>
    </system>

    In \retropie\configs\mame-mame4all\mame.cfg
    rompath=/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-mame4all
    samplepath=/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-mame4all/samples

    Put all game zips in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-mame4all/
    Duplicate empty zero byte zip file names under /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-mame4all/roms to generate the menu in subdirs.

    This also fixes issue where sample.zips shows up in emulation station menu.

    @tostati you can still set Kodi to 1080p btw whilst using 720p for everything else. Kodi on RetroPie restores the previous video mode on exit. I use 720p but boot to Kodi which switches to 1080p. Then I exit to es, and have 720p again.

    @xdrak Sometimes you can't see for looking!
    It's a pretty obscure emulator, not sure a lot of people on here use it. I use it for DRAGON32.

    @rascas People with Bluetooth controllers are reporting this issue. If USB controllers and Bluetooth controllers are affected, there's something wrong with the underlying OS or its drivers.

    I have a thread about a similar topic. I went through and sorted most of the games that work better in MAME 2003/2010 vs. FBA vs. AdvanceMAME3.X. I posted lists of the rom names for each folder. I do not use the arcade folder. I believe I also posted my BIOS folder contents. I also have some other tips in that thread.

    I've using a cheap red and a cheap blue ps3/ps1 look alike from a famous chinese webstore without any problems. The ones I use are wired (make sure to get ones with enough cable length) and work great with my rpi2.

  • Encrypt RetroPie MicroSD Card ?

    I understand the situation here. Many of my friends ask to borrow my RP3 for the weekend or so.

    My setup has been done manually, I added tons of Japanese game collections, painstakingly selected the correct artwork, videos, etc so I wouldn't like anyone to copy and sell my "work".

    Since physical access to the microSD card can easily gain them root access or plain image copy, after backing up my (final-ish) setup and ensuring that my root and user password are unique, I used epoxy.

    Yup, that two part glue that will never, ever come out without complete destruction of the card or the board itself.

    Use epoxy carefully in order to avoid ruining your hardware (avoid connectors) and realise that you're shortening the particular Pi's life to a microSD's read/write cycles. It will definitely die before the rest of the hardware.

    But at this price it's virtually expendable anyway, isn't it? :)

    @andrewh said in unable to install Scraper due to ~ key:

    Alternately, you can do it in two steps.

    the original command should be as follows (capitalization of folder names is important) ;

    sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.sh

    It tells the system to run the retropie_setup.sh script found in the RetroPie-Setup subdirectory of the user's home directory (the user being the 'pi' account you logged in with). And this command can be run successfully no matter where in the filesystem you happen to have navigated to.

    So, instead, you can do it in two steps as follows;

    cd sudo ./RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.sh

    The first line will take you to the home directory for the user you're logged in as.
    The second line runs the script found in the subdirectory of the current directory (which will be the home directory, since that's where you moved to with the first command).

    Just gave it a try and it’s worked perfectly, ive set the game list for videos and the majority have them but some are just still images (may of been where I done manual scraping)
    Thanks for the help guys I would of never sorted that other wise πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€
