No problem!

Also, @ruckage, do you need any help with the theme? I'd really love to help or something.

By the way, is there a way to have also a clock to see time? Sometimes i want to see the time and i have to turn on my phone. It will be a great addition.

Afraid not. There are two things needed to make that happen:

(major) the Rpi needs to know the time, either by querying the internet or by additional hardware such as a battery powered RTC module. (minor) we need to expose the time as a themable element in ES.

Hi, doesn't the pi automatically get the time if its networked? I've noticed that the RPI3 at least if networked always displays the correct time if you exit EmulationStation to the console. I realise this doesn't help non-networked devices but I wonder if it's more common for the pi to be networked now as the Pi3 and PizeroW have built in wifi. It certainly would be nice to be able display the time within a theme.

I'm noticing it's not actually shutting down emulation station to scrap like it used to or letting me and none of the SSH commands are working . Anyone having the same issues?

@hansolo77 OK, that's as up to date as it gets.

Could you move the conversation to a separate thread and add me to it, as this is not related to this topic anymore?

Any emulators you notice this happening with? Does it also happen with any other theme?

Thanks.

@spud11

There are 2 other mice set up as home made spinners plus a trackball.

If they're not being used in lr-caprice32, you might be able to temporarily blacklist them from the runcommand-onstart.sh and then re-enable them in the runcommand-onend.sh. Granted, I don't know if this is even possible, but it might be worth exploring.

@meleu HAHAHAHAHAH!!
haha...
I already got it to work!

Another Classic ready: overlay for Rampage.
;-)

Did this ever get into pulled into the retropie repo? If not, are you planning to?

I'm looking at possibly starting search and would love to start with a gridview already there.

yup, and it's not really too bad if a scraper

@R1n0X Hahaha, thanks for the heads up. So far mine is running well. :D

VC, VC.

(Battleship was 15 CAD though) @obsidianspider

@lilbud I feel dumb for not trying that first. It all works now, thanks!

@meleu said in Making premade gamelist.xml with xtra media collections:

@Used2BeRX

@meleu Yes... I definitely think we need a way to simplify a command that makes a gamelist.xml for all of the systems.

I definitely think you need to invest some time to learn the basics of Linux shell. :-)

That huge command can be simplified to:

time ./Used2BeTXT.sh --no-desc /home/pi/RetroPie/Media/*/Synopsis/*.*

Also, don't know if you are aware, but you can auto-complete some commands using TAB key.

I've updated the script a few minutes ago. Small bugfixes and added the --only-image option (see --help to get details).

It was fun, I learned some find and xmlstarlet tricks, but I think I'm done with it. Time to move on...

Ah... didn't notice you posted this before I replied.

Still have some possible issues that I mentioned though. I think we effectively doubled the search time by adding the BIN files to the search for the 5200.

I think we should be able to make extra carousels, on all of the views and also to use it for other images such as metadata, like marquees, or md_images.

Also an origin type function for the carousel would make the variety of nice looking carousels go up.

There's so much to read.. and I am totally new to all of this. I am having the same issue, my replica PS3 controllers will not pair wirelessly and there is a constant vibration when plugged directly in, how do I fix this?

Ok, I don't know how to work Github so I can't push a request in. So you'll just have to wait til tomorrow when I can get some help for it. :P

@synack Genious hack my friend!
I love tracked music btw. :D
Now my BGM is .....
Would be nice if someone can create a theme for this ;)

@itsnitro yeah, sorry :(

@edmaul69 got the switch today they are indeed PERFECT and if yours is not going all the way to the left and right you may need to adjust but looking at your photos i think you are all the way over one each side. i aligned the tab in the center of the on off switch and i get full movement left and right. thanks for the tip!!!
