Following the guide to add Kodi as a standalone system.
https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/KODI

is it possible to add video preview or boxart/image to emulationstation?

I had tried replicating a gamelist.xml file , but that does not appear to have worked

<gameList>
<game>
<path>./kodi.sh</path>
<name>kodi</name>
<image>./images/kodi.png</image>
<video>./video/kodi.mp4</video>

Assuming that your image and video links are accurate, everything looks correct. The problem may be that you don't have:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

at the top.

@mediamogul

thanks for the reply,

I've updated the xml file and copied it back to the kodi folder in the roms directory, but still no luck.

I've rechecked the filder names and the name of the files are all correct per the xml file. Anything else I can check or try?

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gameList>
<game>
<path>./kodi.sh</path>
<name>kodi</name>
<image>./images/kodi.png</image>
<video>./video/kodi.mp4</video>

Post the contents of you /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/es_log.text. be sure to format it in code blocks or use pastebin.

I redid the setup of kodi as a standalone system per (https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/KODI) again and that worked!

thanks for your help!
