      So in the end I did end up making the gamelist myself. The good thing is that the game and the thumbnail are the same file for Pico-8 games :) pi@retropie:~/RetroPie/roms $ cat /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pico8/gamelist.xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <gameList> <game> <path>./Across_the_river.p8.png</path> <name>Across_the_river</name> <image>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pico8/Across_the_river.p8.png</image> </game> <game> <path>./Combo_Pool.p8.png</path> <name>Combo_Pool</name> <image>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pico8/Combo_Pool.p8.png</image> </game> <game> <path>./Dank_Tomb.p8.png</path> <name>Dank_Tomb</name> <image>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pico8/Dank_Tomb.p8.png</image> </game> <game> <path>./Hungry_Harry_3d.p8.png</path> <name>Hungry_Harry_3d</name> <image>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pico8/Hungry_Harry_3d.p8.png</image> </game> <game> <path>./Kelins_delivery_Rain.p8.png</path> <name>Kelins_delivery_Rain</name> <image>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pico8/Kelins_delivery_Rain.p8.png</image> </game> <game> <path>./Stories_at_dawn.p8.png</path> <name>Stories_at_dawn</name> <image>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pico8/Stories_at_dawn.p8.png</image> </game> <game> <path>./The_Wee_Dungeon.p8.png</path> <name>The_Wee_Dungeon</name> <image>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pico8/The_Wee_Dungeon.p8.png</image> </game> <game> <path>./U-Turn.p8.png</path> <name>U-Turn</name> <image>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pico8/U-Turn.p8.png</image> </game> <game> <path>./Dusk_Child.p8.png</path> <name>Dusk_Child</name> <image>./Dusk_Child.p8.png</image> <playcount>2</playcount> <lastplayed>20190414T055919</lastplayed> </game> </gameList>

      @francegue said in Kodi won't start when launched from Ports: /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg @Rascas : indeed, installing kodi from the command line instead of from retropie-config solved the problem. Thanks! I see I still have the file /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg totally empty, do you think it can be an issue if I reboot?

      I've seen saturn emulators having slowdown on an intel core i3 @ 3.4Ghz, don't expect to run those on a raspberry pi 3, neither raspberry pi 4, neither raspberry pi 5, except perhaps if someone create a dynarec (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_recompilation if you don't know what i mean)

      Its been a while since i implemented this and everything works just fine. I wonder though, would it be technically possible to load a different splash video or splash screen depending on the loaded es_system file? For example, for console games a splash video and for arcade games a different splash video.

      @meleu That looks really promising ... But AS you know I am not a scraper. Indeed the caurosel view is fine. Maybe in not a far future all databases are setted to SQL and then it is easier to exchange ready scraped Databases. What do you think? @TMNT in the thread are all working scripts listed inkl. how to and version numbering

      @Mahlon If you are happy to just use the default es_systems.cfg file, ie alphabetical order and default names etc you should actually delete the version in /home/pi/.emulationstation. The system will treat this as a custom config file. If you add extra systems to the Pi not already in this config file they won't appear unless you add them manually as it looks here first for the systems to display. If this doesn't exist it defaults to the /etc/emulationstationversion.

      @eweek reinstall emulationstation using retropie_setup and you'll get the file again.
