@NelloHD said in Error after Update setup Script:

I honestly don't understand where to check the version.

You can check the log file produced during the update, it should be one of the log files in $HOME/RetroPie-Setup/logs. Find the file (they're time-stamped) and you can view it with zless $HOME/RetroPie-Setup/logs/<filename>.gz

how do i restore?

You can checkout a specific - major - version with

cd $HOME/RetroPie-Setup git checkout <version>

You can also rewind to a specific commit in time with

cd $HOME/RetroPie-Setup git checkout <commit-id>

but you need to know the commit-id.

What's the point of enabling it if there's no corresponding functionality in EmulationStation ?

This would be a pre-requisite to allow extra functions as currently 12 buttons are used to control ES and there are no "spare" buttons.

provided [hotkey] doesn't trump an existing input

Yes, hotkey can have three states: Absent, present or mapped to Select.

Case hotkey is mapped to Select button:
The Select is used for Start Screensaver, choose next item in screensaver media or bringing up the Options dialog in a gamelist to my knowledge. These events are consumed before the systemcarousel and gamelist logic and do not reach the later components in the GUI stack where hotkey would be processed (e.g. scroll a game's description with hotkey held and joy up/down pressed as one possible ES enhancement).

Case dedicated hotkey button:
Each GuiComponent would decide if it would act on hotkey input. In turn this also means a hotkey-button-combo can only be processed by one gui component when there are multiple gui components displayed.

OK so should anyone encounter the same:
Changing from opengl to sdl2 did resolve that last issue.
A Pentium G3258 at 3.2 Ghz has some speed issues, but it works fine with 4.6 and up.
Skylake or newer Processors should do with less frequency.

@hex I know this thread is a bit old but I want to see if there is interest.

I've added three new events to support integration with the Pixelcade LCD Marquee:

game-select
system-select
screensaver-select

How would I go about incorporating these into the main branch?

Appreciated, thank you.

I've merged those 2 PRs and tagged other users that might be interested Pi 4 compatibility/support.

Yay! This was accepted, Thank you!
