        @rookervik Man, IT IS AMAZING, for me Pixel + old carbon sounds + Pixel Retropie menu icons + Pixel splash screen + Pixel launching images is the way to go, just LOVE it and I can not stop to scream about that

              @madmodder123 Yeah I'm going to take a little break before I get on metadata. Tho it shouldn't be hard. Hopefully I will just need to edit the pixel.xml for meta data version. We'll see. But I want a small break. Took me 6 hours on Sunday to do all the xmls. Such a drag. Haha.

                  Hello @Rookervik !
                  I'm working on fun facts splashscreens and I was using your theme as an example and while trying to parse pixel.xml with xmlstarlet I kept getting and error telling me that that xml was malformed.
                  Looking into it, I found a couple of comments that have one extra dash -, these ones:

                  https://github.com/ehettervik/es-theme-pixel/blob/6488c5426c2ede809d6b3aafeb6e6f78773ce11e/pixel.xml#L202-L203

                  <!--- This will enable Player Count under the screenshot --->
                  <!---<pos>0.686 0.573</pos>--->
                  

                  and

                  https://github.com/ehettervik/es-theme-pixel/blob/6488c5426c2ede809d6b3aafeb6e6f78773ce11e/pixel.xml#L213-L214

                  <!--- This will enable Player Count under the screenshot.--->
                  <!---<pos>0.830 0.567</pos>--->
                  

                  I removed them and now it's working! :D
                  Just wanted to let you know, because it might affect other projects using xmlstarlet to parse themes.

                        @hiulit Yeah I'm aware and I haven't updated the theme on purpose. LOL. Tho if I ever intend to use meleu's awesome splashscreen maker, I might fix it. But the reason I didn't fix it is exactly because of the splash screen maker :D Hahaha

                          @rookervik Why wouldn't you want @meleu 's splashscreen maker to use your theme? :O

                                Ok, starting to work on Pixel with Metadata. (gotta go make me some gamelists so I can even see the crap :P )

                                Anything you guys want fixed up or changed? Now's the time to ask. I don't use this theme so I don't care how it looks. Haha.

                                  I think it's all working. I don't have gamelists to test. I can make a couple but I didn't move any positions of text.

                                  Videos are in. And I think everything from Pixel-regular. Anyone wanna test it?

                                    @rookervik The fancy carousal at the bottom is about the only thing I would like to see in the Pixel metadata update. I'm sorry to say, I'm not a fan of the spaced out game list in Pixel. I appreciate your hard work anyway.

                                      @rookervik Should I be able to update it through updating retropie setup then updating the theme in es-themes? I tried and no update is available.

                                        @quackwalks I was gonna mail it to whoever wanted to test it. Before I send it to the main download and potentially ruin everyones' pixel. LOL

                                          @quackwalks Ah, the spacing was added to make the game selection bar fit in the background. You don't like how the games are spaced further now?

                                            Screenshot with a video playing. Metadata shown. Everything seems to be working. Systems screen is the same as Pixel. Carousel moved and art repositioned.
