      I can confirm: downgrading SDL to v2.0.8 solved my problem!
      Thanks for the help, as always. :-)

      Seems pretty straightforward to run a script from EmulationStation. Proof of concept, here is a crude 10-minute version I made using Hursty's "Bluray" theme. It already contains a "Power" system, so I just added a small script, uploaded a small .png of the DualShock controller and edited the gamelist.xml file.

      MAIN MENU (from Hursty):
      main menu.png

      SELECTION:
      selection.png

      OUTPUT W/Pause (currently requires a keystroke instead of a button-press, but can modify this):
      ps4power-2020.04.14-17.24.46.png

      The simple script:

      #!/bin/bash clear echo PS4 Dual-Shock Battery Level: cat /sys/class/power_supply/*/capacity echo read -p "Press Enter to continue"

      Be sure that the script is set as executable.

      Lastly, the es_settings.cfg entry for the "Power" menu item to appear:

      <system> <name>power</name> <fullname>Power Menu</fullname> <path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/power</path> <extension>.sh .SH</extension> <command>%ROM%</command> <platform>linux</platform> <theme>power</theme> </system>

      Ideally, the output would be prettier and require a DualShock button to be pressed instead of the keyboard Enter key, but this will certainly work.

      After hearing the replies I think I will just power it on with the front button.
      Thanks for the replies!

      @mitu Ok, just tried that. Controller disconnected on 3rd lap in Cortex Castle time trial. I executed the command through SSH while the board was connected via wifi (duh), but then I was unable to connect again and checked in Retropie wifi settings and there was no info of any connection, so I guess the command worked. But it apparently didn't help with the problem...
