      Hey Guys,

      When I launch Emulationstation from command line I see a bunch of errors pop up (basically for all my Genesis ROMs) that says the following:

      "Jul 20 01:00:11 lvl0: File path "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/genesis/[game name]" is outside system path "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/megadrive""

      I checked the megadrive and genesis rom folders and all my games are in there. Does anyone know why this is popping up and how to correct it?

      Thanks!

        Look like you copied a gamelist.xml from another system, which is configured with genesis instead of megadrive. What exactly did you change before you got this message ?
