      @RedBatman And you definitely updated from source and not the binary?

            So I guess I should wait for an official release of retropie?

            No I'm not seeing that I'm seeing a white box flicker over the console logos.

                @AlexMurphy Zoid, Carbon, Turnakafan, pretty much any except for the comic book one.

                  @RedBatman Try increasing or decreasing the VRAM in the menu options. I had this and it sorted itself out after I increased the VRAM to 120. Try it from 70 - 130 in increments of 10, You will need to reboot after you change it each time.

                    @AlexMurphy well I set my VRAM to 200 and that seems sort of fixed it, I still get the white box but after I scroll through all of them once after I get out of a game the white box flicker goes away.

                      @RedBatman I wouldn't recommend 200. It may cause stuttering and glitches. Did you try going below 100?, this actually works on some themes too.

                        If you get the white box, you have not updated from source. The issue has been completely removed from ES.

                          @TMNTturtlguy Yeah, it's definitely sorted my end and as I said I updated from source on Sunday. You will know if you have updated from source if you see the black ES splash screen upon loading.

                              @RedBatman when you push start to enter the menu, what version does it say at the bottom of the screen?

                                      @RedBatman I would update your setup script first, and then reboot and then update Emulationstation from source.

                                        @TMNTturtlguy should I update setup script from command line or within retropie setup?
