      Sorry, we don't support 3rd party images. Use the image from retropie.org.uk/download and see if you still got the issue, then we can help you.

      @winterelf 3rd party builds are not supported by this forum.

      If this were a build direct from this forum, the above fix would have worked. The file extension list in the es_system.cfg is the only change you need to make to allow a file to be shown in the game list of each system. It will just show without meta data until it is scrapped. This is also how it shows any images or videos. Once ES reads that file extension in that list, it knows what to do.

      So who knows why your build is not doing that. You'll have to ask the team that created it.

      I've got an 8gb wd usb external plugged into my pi4 (libreelec) and it works fine.

      However I also created the partitions and formatted it from the raspi4 using buster and gparted.

      @mitu
      Thanks for all the help, I finally figured it out. There was a directory config overwriting in the folder with the bios config, when I removed that one my own configs worked and everything is now perfect.

      @knoxy The latest RetroPie release - 4.8 - should work without issue. As @BuZz mentioned, if you're using a 3rd party image, then we don't support those. Use the RetroPie image from retropie.org.uk/download.

      @mitu I tried all the commands listed and nothing seems to change the look other than removing the -f, adding in the -4 and choosing CEA-4 as the video mode. The --scale2x did what it usually does, gives that rounded look. --scale=n (interger scaling) did nothing, and niether did -NTSC, -PAL

      So this is the end result. It looks odd with all the color and no black borders on the sides, but it runs great and has the 4:3 size ratio.

      I don't know what else to do with this, seems odd that it does this. I can live with it if there is no other choice.

      Please add more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

      What version of EmulationStation are you running ? By switch theme you mean @lilbud's Nintendo Switch Theme ?

      @joaco glad that it was a easy fix.
      At the end of my first reply I rememberes that I had the same thing and doing a update fixed it.

      If you are looking for more ports. Take a look here these are new ones not in the main build

      @nohitter151 There is also a different way. ES has script callouts for some events: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/EmulationStation/#scripting

      Put your scripts in your favorite language in the respective folder. Make them executable (chmod a+x <script>) and you should be ready to go. With the values of %rom_path% %rom_name% (first and second parameter inputted to your script you can locate the respective entry in the gamelist.xml which leads you to the artwork.

      PS: Welcome to this forum :)

      It looks like you need to find an Atari XEGS logo in .svg format to replace the one in the theme folder you copied (logo.svg).

      @mitu I apologize for my lack of knowledge on this one. This must have happened when I loaded and compiled the MESS group of emulators, or when I added the Singe extension to Daphne.

      At least now I know what's been causing me all the headaches. I didn't know there would be a difference in the two. The goal was to get as many emus working on my system...but obviously that created a small snafu I wasn't aware of.

      So fixing this... I'll go through the RetroPie Setup repository and hopefully get back on track.

      Thanks again for your help. Wow... I guess I really need to be more careful when I play around with all these fantastic emulators.

      UPDATE: all is working great. I'm on the right repository, DosBox-Staging 77.1 is loaded and all is good. This can be closed.
