      @slimbrick That's most likely some video codec that's not understood by omxplayer. It's also a common problem, there are a few topics on how to re-encode those videos to be compatible with omxplayer.

      It'll handle the bios names in lower or upper case and a variety of different versions but they must be named in the scphXXXX.bin or SCPHXXXX.BINformat. I've been using scph7502.bin. I don't believe there's much of a difference, if any, I've just had this handy for years.

      There's no guessing to this. Renaming files is your problem here.
      For some examples of bios names: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Playstation-1

      Get the romset version for the emulator you want to use and DON'T rename anything. https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Arcade

      Actually, you can use emulationstation for windows as a theme editor. I think that it would be very hard to adjust the objects dragging them with the mouse cursor and people will end up using text editor anyways.

      I guess the fbi (image viewer) used to display the .png file does not support transparency ?

      Ahh ok, that makes sense. It seems it defaults to a gray background. I wonder if there's a way to either have it default to a black background OR make the side bezels match the gray background i'm getting from the .png

      @almulder Collections are automatically generated, so there's no similar sorting option.

      No, Emulationstation doesn't have the ability to run shaders, that's something specific to RetroArch.

      So what happened was, I didn't think I wanted ALL of RPie when I started. So I cloned a Emulationstation repos...

      with retropie-setup you can install as little or as much of retropie as you like.

      Scott Adams text adventure

      Nice, i like the Idea for Text Adventures, but my Games are also Playable with multi-language support or without any language. For german and other non-english User are the Games playable. The Adams text adventure are only in english and hard to play for kids and Users with bad English Skills for an text Adventure.

      @alphabetapie Can you show us a gamelist.xml fragment generated by Skraper and tell how you organized your ROMs ? You shouldn't need to create any artwork folders, Skraper will create them for your, and reference them in the gamelist.xml file.

      Try a NESPI+ case ... properly set up, it has a real working power button that triggers shutdown script and actually turns power off to the Pi.

      For your own playing, it is not necessary. But if a retropie/kodi/other setup is in a common area / family / kids / etc. it makes things much easier.

      cool thanks @quicksilver, I figured as much. I rarely add games so this kinda threw me off esp will all the permissions problems I created for myself moving from 4.3 to 4.4.
