So why 1 o f dev don't answer.

You have to understand that the type of support you're asking for falls well outside of RetroPie's intended functionality.

i don't know haw to configure the rom collection browser.

That being the case, you might also try asking around here as well. Together with this forum and the official RetroArch forum, you'll increase your chances of getting the answers you need.

it is not rocket science

Maybe not, but it's also completely untested and not within the intended normal use. This might simply be a can of worms that many just don't want to open. Someone may still reply here with the information you're looking for, but I would definitely try hedging my bets on this with the other links provided.

@mediamogul if I may. I agree. It is outside of the scope of the retropie project and you'll have better luck with retroarch/kodi

But if OP doesn't even know what the core names are or how to find them it's highly doubtful he's in a position to be able to get a kodi based rom launcher to work. And as its out of the scope of the retropie project none of the devs have any interest in such a thing as its more in the realm of kodi dev. If a community member is interested then more power to them, but I don't anticipate this being a function of RetroPie in any official development.

@badboy1985ro

It's an interesting idea, but it's also an incredibly long path to walk for what amounts to a change in interface. If you ever do get manage to get this operational, I'd be interested to hear the details. Who knows, with the addition of 'RetroPlayer' in the near future, maybe there will even be a greater demand for this type of thing from the masses.

[herb_fargus]

@mediamogul its also possible that down the road kodi with the xmb menu may also act as a launcher of sorts which could be a way to integrate kodi that way too. Many ways to do things.

The future is truly fantastic. Although I'm still waiting on my flying pants.

@mediamogul
Bull shit.
I have tested retroplayer today. No scraping options or tutorial, have to manual install all the emulators and beside that issues with the controllers. I doubt that dev team of retropi does not know how to start rcb in kodi. And why all the movies on youtube with only adding roms not also installing the emulators. And why able to install kodi on retropi since i can't use all the ad-dons from the repos provided officially or not especially when it comes with retroarch installed? So retro pi devs are implementing a software that have no idea hove to use?
