Mausberry Shutdown Script Doesn't Save Metadata

[lostless]

@meleu has nothing to do with the script. that works . i was testing with another memory card without my gpio setup so i had 3.3v through a 10k resistor to the gpio. i think i burned out my gpio pins
Permissions issue I think. Reinstalled and gpio is now working

@meleu ;) So you see ... PID numbers are better to handle ;)
But I think in the kodi-case a simple pkill kodi would be better. Or am I wrong? Sorry I never will get the result as I never will install Kodi on my Pi alongside with RetroPie ;)

@lostless hey man, would you be kind enough to test this version?:

#!/bin/bash
# the "sed" command below isn't a crypted message, it's just a Regular Expression
# If you are very curious, feel free to ask.
emucall="$(sed '4!d; s/\([\\"]\|[[:alnum:]_]\+=[^ ]* \)//g; s/[][(){}^$*.|+? ]/\\&/g' /dev/shm/runcommand.info)"
 
# If there's an emulator running, we need to kill it and go back to ES
if [[ -n "$emucall" ]]; then
    emupid="$(pgrep -f "$emucall" | tr '\n' ' ')"
    pkill -P "$(echo $emupid | tr ' ' ',')"
    kill "$emupid"
    wait "$emupid"
    sleep 5 # maybe it can be lesser
fi
 

Thanks in advance.
