        @red2blue Updating the kernel has slight chances to fix ES. The problem comes from the theme/ES interaction.
        Same problem happens also with the default (Carbon) theme ?

              @red2blue EmulationStation recently was updated with support for Collections - Favorites, Last played, All Games + custom collections. See https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/11321/theme-changes-attention-theme-makers-upcoming-game-collections-in-es
              Any theme that didn't support this new feature will probably show errors. The list of updated themes is at https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/11477/es-themes-ready-for-favorite-all-games-recently-played-and-custom-collections

                        How are you getting the metadata into it, namely the videos? What scraper are you using?

                          @pjft i scraped all my things months ago and everything was working perfectly until i updated from 2 months worth of updates...

                          I used screenscraper but that shouldnt matter, like i mentioned earlier, Everything was working correctly.
