      You probably need to add the redream emulator name to the list of emulators defined here, so it knows when to stop/restart playing the music.

      Oh! Okay where could I find it? I'm using winSCP and I can't find the file anywhere. Or could I just puTTY and do some sudo nano Haha. Sorry, I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to this.

      Thanks for always being helpful though

        I have no idea where the script is located - try listing the package's contents with

        dpkg -L python-es-bgm
        

        and maybe you can spot where that file is copied.

              sudo nano /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/bgm/Application.py
              Go to the line @mitu provided add redream save and exit
              I did that but redream is still playing the music..
              I'm assuming I need to run the script again?

                Maybe the name of the binary is different - redream.elf maybe ?

                      I don't know, but you can run ps -ef while steamlink is started and see the process name that it uses, so you can add it to the emulator list.
