      Never mind I have fixed it. I used the MC command and changed the word kidmode to full in the /home/pi/.emulationstation/es_settings.cfg.

      @tackett1980 said in Finishing this build and have some random UI questions.:

      1: is there any way to disable the settings menu when launching a rom while in kiosk mode? The “press A to config” thing is what I’m talking about when you load it up. I don’t want his kids accidentally getting into this.

      You can disable the Runcommand launch menu from the RetroPie setup Configuration/Tools - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Runcommand/#configuring-runcommand

      2: is there a way to disable the retroarch menu in kiosk mode? The holding select and A menu. Again there are sensitive settings in here and I don’t want his kids accidentally messing with them.

      For that you can remove/comment the input_menu_toggle_btn settting from your controller's configuration file in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads. This will disable the button, leaving other hotkeys intact.
      I'd also disable the reset button, it could easily be triggered with the hotkey (input_reset_btn).

      3; I scraped all the mame roms but for some reason the metadata game titles all have tags at the end. Freaking (USA) and (rev 1.2abc feat. Nellie) etc. Is there an easy way to delete these other than to edit each roms meta data individually, which would take me literally weeks to do?

      That would be the easier to do from the scraper, instructing it to remove that info. The script you found might work.

      @xpvenom So I just checked and it is under "Other Options" in the ES menu.

      Also, you might want to restart to make sure the metadata gets saved before changing over to the Kids mode.

      @t3l01v said in Kid Mode, Select key doesn’t bring up “Jump To” menu:

      Wow! Thank you for the quick response. Is there any way to re-enable the Select menu in Kid Mode? I really only want the Jump-To feature available.

      What is shown on the different UI modes (kid/kiosk) is not configurable (maybe the Quit option on Kid ?).

      Thank you kindly, sir. The warm welcome means a lot, but there's no need to worry. I'm still somewhat swamped until after the holidays, but I do plan on keeping a tab open here to help out with the most recent round of spammers. Those guys are relentless.

      WOAW ... like write me @screech it is very complicated around the world to found an unique "PEGI" value lol
      So many systems in so many countries ...

      ESRB, PEGI, CERO, DJCTQ, OFLC, BBFC, USK, ELSPA, VET et SFB, aDeSe, SELL,......

      https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Système_d'évaluation_des_jeux_vidéo

      To make easier to use and understand every where, as soon as a classification info is added to ScreenScraper, it looks at the lowest value, and create a SS classification. Age by Age, if i understand fine from 3 to 18. 15 values.

      It is the good solution for every one. And easy to understand because it is almost the Year of the children.
      For the skinners it is easy too, because it make 15 images of PEGI or ESRB for exemple, and some are same to concord with the official rule.

      PEGI :
      from 1 to 6 : 6 images
      from 7 to 11 : 5 images
      from 12 to 15 : 4 images
      from 16 to 17 : 2 images
      for 18 and more : 1 image

      ESRB :
      from 1 to 9 : 9 images
      from 10 to 12 : 3 images
      from 13 to 16 : 4 images
      for 17 : Mature : 1 image
      for 18 and more : 1 image

      And i wish the default value (if the input is empty) was : 10 to stay in games for every one.

      @red2blue I have a copy at home, but I won't get to my computer until tonight or tomorrow. I'll post it for you first chance I get. I'm the meantime though, MetaPixel supports it (and has video support too).
