      I'm using Attract Mode/Retropie on a Pi4 and everything is running great. The only thing is I can't change any themes. It lets me download some new ones and even gives me the note to hit TAB to access the display menu to change themes.

      Problem is, when I hit TAB, it kicks me to a pi@retropie:~$ prompt and then I can't do anything else. What am I doing wrong? Is there anything else I can try?

        Please add some info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

        Is there any error displayed after AttractMode exits ?

          Hello, Thanks for replying. Here is some more info:

          Pi4
          Version 4.6.1
          I'm using the CRT Blast Dual Monitor DynamicDuo Pi4 image
          Everything seems to be running perfectly fine other than this issue.

          This is what I get when I hit TAB while in attract mode:

          I've checked the input_map section in the attract.cfg and it looks like this:

          input_map
          configure                 Joy0 Button49
          select                    Joy0 Button122
          back                      Joy0 Button1073742049
          prev_letter               Joy0 Button32
          next_letter               Joy0 Button120
          add_favourite             Joy0 Button1073742048
          edit_game                 Joy0 Button13
          configure            Tab
          prev_letter          LControl+Up
          next_letter          LControl+Down
          filters_menu         LControl+Left
          next_filter          LControl+Right
          configure            Escape+Up
          edit_game            Escape+Down
          add_favourite        Escape+LControl
          

          Any ideas why I can't get to the display menu?

            Sorry, we don't support 3rd party images - try asking the image author(s) for help or use the image from retropie.org.uk/download.

              Thanks.

              If there's anything you can just point me to that I can try to look at for a fix, I'd appreciate it.
