      @ruckage Thanks for at least letting me know. I thought this was 1280 x 960. Ah well, hit me up if and when you do add support for it.

        A workaround would be to force the pi to output a 4:3 resolution that your monitor supports. Most monitors support several resolutions, I'd expect all monitors would support common resolutions such as 1024x768, if you're lucky it may even support 1280x960 but you'd need to look up the specs of your monitor first.

          Hello,

          I'm really impressed by the talent some people have. Unfortunately, I'm not as skilled as people here. I would like first to thanks Ruckage for his work. That's absolutely beautiful.

          However, I have a pretty straight forward question about the nes mini themes: Is an option or a workaround to have parralax scrolling of the game, like the picture below?

          Thanks for your answer.

              Well, not entirely... I mean, someone could hack it into ES.

              Don't sweat it.

                    That was GridView, since the PR for GridView hasn't been merged yet...

                      I'm a little confused as to what's being asked here, what do you mean by 'parralax scrolling of the game'?

                      If you mean having a carousel for the gamelist (like the system view) then no, that's not possible with EmulationStation currently.

                      If you mean having the secondary scroll bar with the small icons showing all systems then again that's also not possible with ES.

                      If I've misunderstood and you mean something entirely different then let me know.

                        It was the first one you mentioned that @Mydriaze wanted.

                          @ruckage Yes, it was an horizontal scrolling of the game. :) Thanks for your answer by the way, and thanks for your work.

                            Any way we could have support for Kodi as a system on the main menu instead of inside ports? I followed this guide to get mine running but in your themes I get a black screen since it doesn't support Kodi.

                              Kodi is on the to do list (see first post in this thread).

                                I'm looking forward to a new update, maybe with Scummvm and nes/snes mini. Thank you for the great work.

                                  Question.
                                  I have downloaded Portable EmulationStation for Windows and the NES Mini Theme doesn't work. Is there some alterations I have to do for the source code to get it to show up for the windows version?
                                  Any help would be great.
                                  Thanks

                                      @greekmanx The images don't show up for me when I change themes. Was there anything you had to do?

                                          You have to use the latest version of ES, where are you downloading the portable version of ES from?

                                          @jdrassa has a repository with a version of ES that is always up to date: https://github.com/jrassa/EmulationStation/releases/tag/continuous

                                            Yes all I needed was an updated version of ES. Thanks so much!

                                            Now I just need to figure how to add music to ES for Windows.
