@dankcushions It worked, Thank you very much. Would you consider adding this information to the Docs?

awesome thank you

@pbkoning said in Command line for lr-stella:

I guess that lr-stella is started in a config file or something? Where can I add my command line option?

You'll need to alter /opt/retropie/configs/atari2600/emulators.cfg, but remember that the command line options that work for Stella don't necessarily carry over to lr-stella. When you say you already achieved what you wanted on Windows, was that through RetroArch? If it was actually the standalone version of Stella, it too can be installed separately through the RetroPie-Setup and the command line options can still be altered in the file I referenced. Something else to keep in mind is that particular file gets overwritten after every update, so you'll want to make allowances for that.

Just a quick bump to know if the devs plan on adding this feature or not :>

Hi all, sorry for dragging up an old thread. Has anyone got this to work on the latest Retropie image (4.7.1)? I had it installed on an old 4.4 image working absolutely fine, thought I would update to latest image 4.7.1 followed all the same steps (actually copied what was written in the old image that worked) in relation to detecting hdmi. But I can’t get it to work in 4.7.1, it always defaults into hdmi and cannot get itself back into lcd when you don’t have an hdmi cable installed. I often see ‘Unk-Comp-Dev’ in the text when booting rather than ‘[E] No Device Present]. Wondering if the updated Retropie version somehow recognizes the LCD screen differently which is preventing this script from working? It seems to always boot into hdmi like it always thinks something is plugged in when it’s not.

Any help to get it working would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

Ok found a solution in another thread no longer need a script to do what I need just a simple addition to the config.txt file, all sorted! Thanks!
