        omxplayer doesn't support subtitles on the Pi4, you either have to disable it if you want subtitles or disable subtitles to keep omxplayer.

            The game start is bound to start - for both images and video screensavers. For videos it might have been possible to use any button, but right now they're both using the same key.
            More details in the discussion here.

              @mitu gm from here
              the link goes to "Error loading new systems"

              Unfo the game wont start from the video screensaver .
              the only button working is SELECT as per my initial post that simply goes to next random video. any other button including start goes back to ES

              i have to figure out what the culprit is. i dont know if i can find any info in the ES log but il check

              any other tips id like to thank you in advance.
              Thank you @mitu for your expertise and help

                I have tested an older backup I had prior 5.4.xx.
                It has 4.19.118 kernel.
                START button works fine on video screensaver.

                Of course black screen on pi4 is as we talked above (not concerned)

                I dont know what might have changed with newer 5 kernel setup. I ll test a clean RPie base and report back.

                    My only problem is that START button does not trigger the rom to start.

                    My understanding is that you have this compiled in ES
                    I have removed ES and added from binary.

                    I can see one of the requirements is VLC now.
                    I removed VLC and ES.
                    Installed from BINARY and both installed ok

                    START still cant trigger the ROM. Any ideas what might have been broken?

                      @2play Unless something with SDL is causing it to register buttons differently, thus detecting <something different> before the start button it expects.

                      I thought I had answered this in another thread, but there is an option in the ES menu to actually enable or disable this behavior ("enable screensaver controls", I believe). Check whether that's enabled.

                      Other than this, I'm out of options. Nothing changed in ES.

                      EDIT: what controller are you using, and is it plugged or bluetooth? Does this happen with other controllers - or even a plain usb keyboard?

                        @pjft Thank you
                        i do have them enabled in ES
                        Tried both my USB BT KB, normal USB KB. and a 3rd party PS3 alike wired controller. A friend tried with ps4 but same
                        Ill check the SDL as I keep compiling things on my base to test things

                        But i think you gave a me a hint to check couple things

                          Quick update on this.
                          I had a working image and after latest full upgrade OS applied yesterday, feature is broken (game wont start from video screensaver with START).

                          Linux 5.10.17-v7l+ armv7l GNU/Linux - Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
                          Model : Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.1

                          its very weird.
                          Here is a pastebin of what i managed to gather on packs changed

                            @2play I'm quite at a loss here, but can you share the ES log as well, and potentially even running it with --debug (or. whatever the command is to get debug logging)?

                            What type of controller are you using, does it move to the next game during screensaver if you press "right", is it only start that doesn't work?

                              just burned back an older backup.
                              Linux 5.4.83 based was ok and still ok. I think up to 5.10.11
                              It broke when upped to 5.10.17 as per my last

                              I have a third party PS alike controller (esperanza - Microntec USB)
                              Yes it moves right left to next video.
                              But mostly I use a 2.4G Mini Wireless Keyboard with Touchpad Backlight you know these small ones to be used with media boxes

                              ill upgrade the OS again on above and see again. ill try to export full process

                              Reverting after OS upgrade and I will run ES with --degub option

                                Exit to CLi, run with emulationstation --debug
                                tested again and works ok.
                                Here is the pastebin with related events called ok!

                                  As im trying to find what has caused this behavior i revisited the "broken" system.
                                  Updated from binary ES,
                                  Reset controller configuration
                                  Reboot wiht ES degub enabled

                                  Remapped my keyboard and started screensaver.
                                  Am i right to say that START value doesnt post 1 just 0

                                        @2play So, if you can replicate working behavior and non-working on the same system depending on the binary, I'd be inclined to have us figure out if there was a specific commit that changed the behavior.

                                        I am not aware of any such commit, but if you'd want to share the full log files over at, say, pastebin, that may help. Have you tried both emulationstation-dev and emulationstation binaries? More info on the build dates/etc would help.

                                        I'll take a look at the code, and test it out on my end.

                                          I have overwritten this folder in FULL from my backup of yestreday night to above mentioned ES update and all went back to normal ( I have tested 3 times reboot, f4, debug before doing but no good)
                                          /opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation

                                          If of interest here is the full working folder 7z-ed
                                          mega.nz/file

                                          And screenshot of working version!
