@mitu said in PieMarquee2 compiled for a Pi5 or source available?:

maybe it can be adapted to work with EmulationStation's scripting system ?

Unfortunately the PieMarquee2 scripts relies on omxiv (depreciated and not compatible with arm64) to place the image on the second display. fbi doesn't seem to be a good replacement and I haven't found a way to make cvlc display to a specific hdmi port.

if I find an app or you know of one I'd love rework the scripts to get my 64bit P5s marquee going.

@mitu thank you for these links!! I will give these edits a go when I get home this evening and report back!

Thank you again! So helpful!!

I reached out to losernator and he was kind enough to provide an explanation and a quick fix:

"Piemarquee2 gets the rom name from the list of running processes, and game-specific options should affect that.

It seems that mk.zip.cfg was recognized as a rom file
quick fix : rename marquee "mk.png" into "mk.zip.png"

I created a duplicate mk.png and mk.zip.png to take care of the menu and in-game and all is good now!

@losernator thanks for the response.
It seems to work.
