@GoldenSword This version of Emulationstation knows how to display videos, but in order to show them you have to Add video tags for the games to the gamelist.xml file used by Emulationstation. This is usually done by a scraper - try Universal XML Scraper or Skraper. Use an Emulationstation theme that supports the video tag and configure the layout of the theme to video so that videos are shown. Most RetroPie included themes for Emulationstation support video - here is a list of them.

Well this is an interesting one I tried setting this input a few times and the triggers werent updating right. After i deleted (reset/clear the inputs through emulation station) it worked. Something must have been amiss somewhere. I can see whats going on with the hotkeys in the list now it looks right. ps the system(raspian) was up to date not sure if it was some binary update that fixed it. If anyone is experiencing problems with xbox360 controllers update from binary's (always do the system as well). Clear your inputs through retropie setup and reboot and set your controller up and the jobs a good one. My triggers wouldn't set right they where double/tripple pressing without resetting/clearing the input first hope this helps anyone with the same issue. input_a_btn = "1" input_b_btn = "0" input_device = "Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver" input_down_btn = "16" input_driver = "udev" input_enable_hotkey_btn = "8" input_exit_emulator_btn = "9" input_l2_btn = "6" input_l3_btn = "11" input_l_btn = "4" input_l_x_minus_axis = "-0" input_l_x_plus_axis = "+0" input_l_y_minus_axis = "-1" input_l_y_plus_axis = "+1" input_left_btn = "13" input_load_state_btn = "4" input_menu_toggle_btn = "3" input_r2_btn = "7" input_r3_btn = "12" input_r_btn = "5" input_r_x_minus_axis = "-2" input_r_x_plus_axis = "+2" input_r_y_minus_axis = "-3" input_r_y_plus_axis = "+3" input_reset_btn = "0" input_right_btn = "14" input_save_state_btn = "5" input_select_btn = "8" input_start_btn = "9" input_state_slot_decrease_btn = "13" input_state_slot_increase_btn = "14" input_up_btn = "15" input_x_btn = "3" input_y_btn = "2"

@samuelsson What are the contents of your /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg file?

Awesome. Thank you very much

@riverstorm It's the wrong way round in every emulator. I just learned to live with it so far, and play nintendo style, instead of sega style ;-)

Well it appears that TOSEC hasn't quite completed their datfiles for like Game Boy Advance, SNES and some other Nintendo systems, but they still have a huge set of dat files. They even tagged some bad dumps mainly for the Commodore 64 and Amiga as those tapes and disks aren't as robust as those ROM cartridges. Besides we may not know which ROMs are corrupt that can give out a irrevelant bug report to RetroPie as those bad dump ROMs are not wanted.

@loonyboi Thanks! I wasn't sure if you meant to mirror the controls by ES' UI or at file system level by copying their config files. So if I understand you correctly, setting them up identically in ES does suffice.

I have the same issue. Some PCSX2 team members have made a request about exiting from a gamepad buttons, while some others say "this is not a priority for the project" : https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/issues/2364 I find it ridiculous, but... well, this is how some people think

Ok I've tested jslisten but only accept 4 button pressed at once and seems no button sequence working...

@surfingramjam Are you referring to sorting the games by 'how many times a game has been played' or 'what date the game was last played'? Either way, yes, it's doable in terms of manipulating the gamelist.xml. On the first case, by using the <playcount> tag. On the second case, by using the <lastplayed> tag. I could create a script (when I have the time :P) that would be launched from the RetroPie menu in EmulationStation to sort the games.

I spent some more time doing some tweaks to the theme, resized the PNG files, etc. It's now done and included in the ES Themes manager for easy download/install. I tried to keep the look and feel of CriticalCid's original BigBox port (which itself was a port of existing Hyperspin themes). A few things different though in order to work within the Emulation Station framework.

If I do sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade it also locks up doing the upgrade. But I was able to both of these in Raspbian and Raspbian lite.

aah that was simple :-P thank you very much

Just got this error while scraping

@dnbarnes1983 Emulationstation is a general game launcher frontend - it's also used by Recalbox. You didn't specify in any of your posts you have RetroPie installed and which version.

@buzz said in (Odroid C1+)EmulationStation fails to build: LTS 18.04 I can't find one that supports the odroid c1+ I was installing what was recommended in the guide. I think I'll try this one next. ubuntu-16.04-minimal-odroid-c1-20160803.img.xz

@mr-emu Thank you for sharing your solution.

Added a bunch of updates just to make things clearer, plus added some commentary to the code so people understand what it's actually doing.
